Installing an Intel Management Module
(IMM)
The optional Intel Management Module (IMM) provides enhanced levels of server
functionality over the standard baseboard management controller (BMC). Several
additional features become available with the IMM installed, including memory mirroring
and sparing, redundant hot-swap chassis fans, and the local control panel (LCP).
To install an Intel Management Module (IMM):
1 If Gateway Server Manager (GSM) software is installed in your server, uninstall it prior
to installing the IMM module.
2 Follow the instructions in “Preventing static electricity discharge” on page 41. Make
sure that you turn off the server, then unplug the power cord(s) and all other cables
connected to the server.
3 Follow the instructions in “Opening the server case” on page 42.
4 Remove the riser assembly by following the instructions in “Removing and installing
the PCI riser assembly” on page 69.
5 Install the nylon standoff into the corner hole in the IMM module board which
corresponds to one of the holes in the system board (see the illustration on page 87).
Important The snap fit end of the standoff goes into the hole in the IMM module
board. The snap lock end of the standoff goes into the hole in the
system board.
