SUPER PIIIDM6/PIIIDM4/PIIIDM3/PIIIDME User's Manual

Suspend to RAM (STR)

When the system goes into a sleep state, power is removed from most of the system components but can remain supplied to RAM to quickly restore the system to its previous state of operation. Because system restoral happens in only ~5 seconds, applications that were open before the sleep state can reopen for immediate access. In STR, all data in system memory is stored in RAM when the system is suspended and system power is turned off (the power supply fan also shuts off). You must be running ACPI for this feature to take effect. See page 1-22 for details on initiating ACPI. All drivers and add-on cards must be ACPI supported for STR to function.

Alert on LAN 2 (AOL2)

AOL2 ASIC brings an advanced level of management interface between a remote management console/server and the client system. It provides inter- faces to the 82559 Ethernet controller chip and to system monitoring de- vices. AOL2 can send "Alert" messages to the mangagement console to notify administrators of important events or problems such as high tempera- tures, chassis intrusion and voltages exceeding safe margins.

Recovery from AC Power Loss

BIOS provides a setting for you to determine how the system will respond when AC power is lost and then restored to the system. You can choose for the system to remain powered off (in which case you must hit the power switch to turn it back on) or for it to automatically return to a power on state. See the Power Lost Control setting in BIOS on page 4-11 of this manual to change this setting. The default setting is Always OFF.

1-3 PC Health Monitoring

This section describes the PC health monitoring features of the SUPER PIIIDM6/PIIIDM4/PIIIDM3/PIIIDME. All have an onboard System Hardware Moni- tor chip that supports PC health monitoring.
