The remote presence and blue-screen capture features are integrated functions of
the integrated management module (IMM2). The remote presence feature
provides the following functions:
– Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 at 75 Hz,
regardless of the system state
– Remotely accessing the server, using the keyboard and mouse from a remote
client
– 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
– 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 feature to
assist in determining the cause of the hang condition.
v Ethernet controller configuration
For information about configuring the Ethernet controller, see “Configuring the
Ethernet controller” on page 156.
v Features on Demand Ethernet software
The server provides Features on Demand software Ethernet support. You can
purchase a Features on Demand software upgrade key for Fibre Channel over
Ethernet (FCoE) and iSCSI storage protocols that is provided through the
integrated Emulex BE3 Ethernet controller. For more information, see “Enabling
Features on Demand Ethernet software” on page 156.
v Features on Demand RAID software
The server comes with Features on Demand software RAID support for RAID
levels 5, 6, 50, and 60 upgrade. Software RAID upgrade is enabled through the
integrated management module II (IMM2). For more information, see “Enabling
Features on Demand RAID software” on page 156.
v Configuring RAID arrays
For information about configuring RAID arrays, see “Configuring RAID arrays”
on page 156.
v IBM Advanced Settings Utility (ASU) program
Use this program as an alternative to the Setup utility for modifying UEFI
settings and IMM settings. Use the ASU program online or out of band to
modify UEFI settings from the command line without the need to restart the
server to run the Setup utility. For more information about using this program,
see “IBM Advanced Settings Utility program” on page 157.
