languages.
The Web-based user interface communicates with the management and
configuration program that is part of the firmware that comes with the management
module. You can use this program to perform the following tasks:
v Defining the login IDs and passwords.
v Selecting recipients for alert notification of specific events.
v Monitoring the status of the BladeCenter T unit and blade servers.
v Controlling the BladeCenter T unit and blade servers.
v Accessing the I/O modules to configure them.
v Changing the startup sequence in a blade server.
v Setting the date and time.
v Using a remote console for the blade servers.
v Changing ownership of the keyboard, video, and mouse.
Note: Some blade server models do not support the keyboard, video, and
mouse feature. Ownership of the keyboard, video, and mouse cannot be
transferred to those blade servers.
v Changing ownership of the CD-ROM drive and USB ports. (The CD-ROM drive
in the BladeCenter T unit is viewed as a USB device by the blade server
operating system.)
v Activating On Demand blade servers.
v Setting the active color of the critical (CRT) and major (MJR) alarm LEDs
You
also can use the management and configuration program to view some of the
blade server configuration settings. See “Management and configuration program”
on page 26 for more information.
