1.1 Welcome!
Thank you for buying an ASUS
®
ASMB3-SOL PLUS server management board!
The ASUS ASMB3-SOL PLUS is an Intelligent Platform Management Interface
(IPMI) 2.0-compliant board that allows you to monitor, control, and manage a
remote server from the local or central server in your local area network (LAN).
The ASMB3-SOL PLUS comes with the proprietary ASUS Remote Console
(ARC) application that offers round-the-clock remote server monitoring through
the component sensors. With ARC, you can monitor the remote server CPU(s)
temperature(s), system temperature, fan rotations, and power supply voltages. The
ASMB3-SOL PLUS records each remote server system event for accurate and
efcient troubleshooting. To keep you always informed of the remote server system
status, ARC is also capable of sending Short Message Service (SMS) or text
message to your mobile or PDA phone.
The ASMB3-SOL PLUS comes with a power management feature that allows
you to power on/off or reset the remote server giving you full control during
power-critical situations. The server management board also comes with a
Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) information feature that gathers information
on replaceable system components or modules such as the motherboard or
backplane model name, serial number, manufacturer, etc. You can use the FRU
information when reporting and/or replacing server system components.
