Notes:
1. Requires IBM Director Agent
2. Available via the ASM interconnect or from customer LAN with RSAII installed.
3. Not available on e326.
4. Requires the addition of a RSAII to serve as a gateway to customer LAN.
Advanced system management examples
The following sample configurations are for illustration only and may not be suitable for any specific
customer installation. Contact your IBM Business Partner or IBM Marketing Representative for assistance
with your specific configuration requirements.
1. Sample ASM Network
The ASM interconnect network is logically and distinctly separate from the customer LAN. Thus, the ASM-
nodes are not required to be connected into the LAN. A system with the RSAII or the RSAII-EXA installed
will serve as the gateway to the customer LAN and the Director server.
