for remote server management capabilities. The IMM provides remote server
management through the following industry-standard interfaces:
– Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) version 2.0
– Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) version 3
– Common Information Model (CIM)
– Web browser
v Remote presence capability and blue-screen capture
IMM Premium is required to enable the remote presence and blue-screen
capture features. The remote presence feature provides the following functions:
– Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1280 x 1024 at 75 Hz,
regardless of the system state
– Remotely accessing the server, using the keyboard and mouse from a remote
client
– Mapping the CD or DVD drive, diskette drive, and USB flash drive on a
remote client, and mapping ISO and diskette image files as virtual drives that
are available for use by the server
– Uploading a diskette image to the IMM memory and mapping it to the server
as a virtual drive
The
blue-screen capture feature captures the video display contents before the
IMM restarts the server when the IMM detects an operating-system hang
condition. A system administrator can use the blue-screen capture to assist in
determining the cause of the hang condition.
v Large system-memory capability
The memory bus supports up to 128 GB of system memory. The memory
controller supports error correcting code (ECC) for up to 16 industry-standard
PC3-10600R-999 (single-rank or dual-rank), 800, 1067, and 1333 MHz, DDR3
(third-generation double-data-rate), registered, synchronous dynamic random
access memory (SDRAM) dual inline memory modules (DIMMs).
v Integrated network support
The server comes with an integrated dual-port Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet
controller, which supports connection to a 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1000-Mbps
network. For more information, see “Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controllers”
on page 138.
v Integrated Trust Platform Module
This integrated security chip performs cryptographic functions and stores private
and public secure keys. It provides the hardware support for the Trusted
Computing Group (TCG) specification.
v Large data-storage capacity and hot-swap capability
The server supports a maximum of six 2.5-inch hot-swap Serial Attached SCSI
(SAS) hard disk drives or hot-swap Serial ATA (SATA) hard disk drives.
With the hot-swap feature, you can add, remove, or replace hard disk drives
without turning off the server.
v EasyLED diagnostics
EasyLED diagnostics provides LEDs to help you diagnose problems. For more
information about the EasyLED, see “EasyLED diagnostics panel” on page 17.
v PCI adapter capabilities
The server has two PCI interface slots (one supports low-profile cards and one
supports half-length, full-height cards). Both slots can support PCI Express
adapters. See “Removing and installing an adapter” on page 55 for detailed
information.
