IBM BladeCenter HS22V 15
Remote management
The server contains an IBM Integrated Management Module (IMM) which interfaces with the advanced
management module in the BladeCenter chassis. The combination of these two provides advanced
service-processor control, monitoring, and an alerting function. If an environmental condition exceeds a
threshold or if a system component fails, LEDs on the system board are lit to help you diagnose the
problem, records the error in the event log, and alerts you to the problem. A virtual presence capability is
also available for remote server management capabilities.
Remote server management is provided through industry-standard interfaces:
Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) Version 2.0
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Version 3
Common Information Model (CIM)
Web browser
