138 IBM System x3850 X6 and x3950 X6 Planning and Implementation Guide
System Status
The first panel that you will see after completing the login credentials and setting your
time-out period, is the System Status and Hardware Health page, as shown in Figure 5-6.
This panel provides a quick summary review of the hardware status of the server.
Figure 5-6 IMM2 System Status panel
A green tick at the top menu bar indicates that all is working from a strict hardware point of
view. The IMM2 can check on the status of server components, the ServeRAID controllers,
and PCIe interfaces to most PCIe adapters.
The IMM2 does not check on the functional status of most PCIe adapters with regard to their
hardware connections to external devices. You will need to refer to the system event log from
within the operating system or the switch logs of the network and fibre switches to which the
server is connected to resolve connectivity issues.
When an actual hardware error is detected in the server, a red X will replace the green tick.
The Hardware Health summary at the bottom of the page will provide information about any
hardware errors presently unresolved in the server. This will also be represented by a red X.
