5.1 Sahalee Baseboard Management Controller (BMC)
The Sahalee Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) contains a 32-bit RISC processor and
associated peripherals used to monitor the system for critical events. The Sahalee BMC is
designed to be the central server management controller in an enterprise server system and is
common to several Intel
®
Architecture 32-bit-based and Intel Itanium™ Processor-based
platform implementations. The Sahalee BMC contains the logic needed for executing the
firmware, controlling the system, monitoring sensors, and communicating with other systems
and devices via various external interfaces.
The Sahalee BMC resides on an Intel
®
Management Module (IMM) that mounts onto the Intel
®
Server Board Set SE8500HW4 Mainboard. Either an IMM Professional or IMM Advanced is
required to boot and use the Intel
®
Server Board Set SE8500HW4. See the Intel
®
Management
Module Installation and User’s Guide for a description of these parts.
