3.3 Handheld based systems management
A built-in, front-accessible serial interface for handheld devices, such as the IBM WorkPad®
or Palm™, enables quick system setup, network configuration, and performance monitoring,
using specialized IBM no-charge System Networking, Analysis, and Performance Pilot
(SNAPP) software. This allows a technician with only minimal training to quickly set up and
install the server within the customer’s network environment.
Another powerful IBM systems management feature, Wireless System Management (WSM),
simplifies the management of these servers using wireless handheld devices such as the
Palm VII or a cell phone. Designed to work with a browser on many different types of wireless
devices, WSM allows customers to manage these systems from anywhere in the wireless,
networked world and is also available from IBM as no-charge software.
Configure added or replaced devices After a slot is selected, the device populating that slot is
unconfigured. Then the power is removed from that slot. If
the unconfigure operation fails, it is possible that the
device is in use by another application. In this case, the
customer or system administrator must be notified to
quiesce the device. If the Unconfigure operation is
successful, the visual indicator for the selected slot is set
to the Remove state. After the device is removed or
replaced, the visual indicator, if available for the selected
slot, is set to the Normal state, and power is restored.
Note: Be sure that no other host is using the device before
you remove it.
