IMM error codes in AMM

The integrated management module (IMM) consolidates the service processor functionality, video controller, and remote presence capabilities in a single chip on the system board. The IMM monitors all components of the blade server and posts events in the IMM event log. In addition, most events are also sent to the advanced management module event log.

The following table lists IMM error messages that are displayed in the advanced management module event log and suggested actions to correct the detected problems. These events, in a slightly different format, are also displayed in the IMM event log.
Note
An updated list of IMM error messages and corrective actions are available on the IBM website at http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/supportsite.wss/docdisplay?lndocid=MIGR-5079339&brandind=5000008.
  • Follow the suggested actions in the order in which they are listed in the Action column until the problem is solved.
  • See Parts listing - BladeCenter HX5 to determine which components are CRUs and which components are FRUs.
  • If an action step is preceded by "(Trained service technician only)," that step must be performed only by a trained service technician.
