schedule power control).
v Query power-supply input power.
v ROM-based IMM firmware flash updates.
v Serial over LAN (SOL).
v Serial port redirection over telnet or ssh.
v SMI handling
v System event log (SEL) - user readable event log.
The IMM also provides the following remote server management capabilities
through the ipmitool, a management utility program:
v Command-line interface (IPMI Shell)
The command-line interface provides direct access to server management
functions through the IPMI 2.0 protocol. Use the command-line interface to issue
commands to control the server power, view system information, and identify
the server. You can also save one or more commands as a text file and run the
file as a script.
v Serial over LAN
Establish a Serial over LAN (SOL) connection to manage servers from a remote
location. You can remotely view and change the UEFI settings, restart the server,
identify the server, and perform other management functions. Any standard
Telnet client application can access the SOL connection.

Guide at http://www.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/docdisplay?lndocid=MIGR-

Using the remote presence and blue-screen capture features
The remote presence and blue-screen capture features are integrated functions of
the integrated management module II (IMM2).
The remote presence feature provides the following functions:
v Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 at 75 Hz,
regardless of the system state
v Remotely accessing the server, using the keyboard and mouse from a remote
client
v Mapping the CD or DVD drive, diskette drive, and USB flash drive on a remote
client, and mapping ISO and diskette image files as virtual drives that are
available for use by the server
v Uploading a diskette image to the IMM memory and mapping it to the server as
a virtual drive
The blue-screen capture feature captures the video display contents before the IMM
restarts the server when the IMM detects an operating-system hang condition. A
system administrator can use the blue-screen capture to assist in determining the
cause of the hang condition.
