Systems management
Integrated Management Module
The System x3650 M2 includes an Integrated MAnagement Module that provides
industry-standard Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) 2.0-compliant
systems management. The IMM comes standard, and shares one of the two onboard
Ethernet ports for access. The IMM can be accessed via software that is compatible
with IPMI 2.0 (xCAT, and more). The IMM is implemented using industry-leading
OSA firmware and applications in conjunction with the Integrated Management
Module (IMM).

– System power control
– System reset control
– NMI detection (system interrupts)
– SMI detection and generation (system interrupts)
– Serial port text console redirection
– System LED control (power, HDD, activity, alerts, heartbeat)
– Support for IPMI V2.0-compliant management software (for example, xCAT)
– The embedded Web server gives you remote control from any standard Web
browser. No additional software is required on the remote administrator's
workstation.
– For users who are accustomed to a command-line interface (CLI), the
administrator can also use the CLI from a Telnet session to perform some of the
functions that can be performed from the Web server.
– Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP).
