490  IBM System Storage DS3500: Introduction and Implementation Guide
The DS-RSM model RS3 is based on the System x3550 M3 Type 7944 server. The server is 
preloaded with Novell SLES 10 and RSM for Storage software. An internal modem is 
available as an option if you choose to use a modem to provide remote access for IBM 
Service. The internal modem might not be compatible in all countries or regions. In that case, 
you can provide an external modem appropriate for your phone system. As an alternative to 
using a modem, you can allow remote access using an external SSH connection. A keyboard, 
mouse, and monitor are required by IBM Service for installation and troubleshooting of the 
DS-RSM Model RS3 server. An optional, rack-mounted KVM drawer can be ordered with the 
DS-RSM Model RS3 server in order to meet this requirement.
