IMM2 action descriptions
This topic provides information about the IMM2 functions available from the web interface.
Navigate to activities you perform with the IMM at the top of the IMM window. The title bar identifies the user name that is logged in, allows you to configure Settings for the status screen refresh rate and a custom trespass message, and Log out of the IMM web interface. Beneath the title bar are tabs that allow you to access various IMM2 functions, as listed in Table 1.
For more information about the IMM2 actions, see the Integrated Management Module II User’s Guide .
Tab | Selection | Description |
---|---|---|
System Status | The System Status page allows you to view system status, active system events, and hardware health information. It provides quick links to the Server Power Actions, and Remote Control functions of the Server Management tab, and allows you to view an image of the last operating-system-failure screen capture. | |
Events | Event Log | The Event Log page displays entries that are currently stored in the IMM event log. The log includes a text description of system events that are reported, including information about all remote access attempts and configuration changes. All events in the log are time stamped, using the IMM2 date and time settings. Some events also generate alerts, if they are configured to do so. You can sort and filter events in the event log and export them to a text file. |
Event Recipients | The Event Recipients page allows you to manage who will be notified of system events. It allows you to configure each recipient, and manage settings that apply to all event recipients. You can also generate a test event to verify notification feature operation. | |
Service and Support | Download Service Data | The Download Service Data page creates a compressed file of information that can be used by Support to assist you. |
Server Management | Server Firmware | The Server Firmware page displays firmware levels and allows you to update the IMM2 firmware, compute node firmware, and DSA firmware. |
Remote Control | The Remote Control page allows you to control the compute node at the operating system level. It provides access to both Remote Disk and Remote Console functionality. You can view and operate the compute node console from your computer, and you can mount one of your computer disk drives, such as the CD-ROM drive or the diskette drive, on the compute node. When you have mounted a disk, you can use it to restart the compute node and to update firmware on the compute node. The mounted disk appears as a USB disk drive that is attached to the compute node. | |
Server Properties | The Server Properties page provides access to various properties, status, and settings for your compute node:
| |
Server Power Actions | The Server Power Actions page provides full remote power control over your compute node with power-on, power-off, and restart actions. | |
Disks | The Disks page displays the status of hard disk drives in the system. You can click on a drive name to display active events for the hard disk drive. | |
Server Management | Processors | The Processors page displays the microprocessors in the system, along with their status and rated speed. You can click on a microprocessor name to display events and additional hardware information for the microprocessor. |
Server Timeouts | The Server Timeouts page allows you to manage compute node start timeouts to detect and recover from compute node hang occurrences. | |
PXE Network Boot | The PXE Network Boot page allows you to change the host compute node startup (boot) sequence for the next restart to attempt a Preboot Execution Environment (PXE)/Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) network startup. The host startup sequence will be altered only if the host is not under Privileged Access Protection (PAP). | |
Latest OS Failure Screen | The Latest OS Failure Screen page displays a screen image, when available, of the most recent operating system failure on the compute node. For your IMM to capture operating system failure screens, the operating system watchdog must be enabled. | |
IMM Management | IMM Properties | The IMM Properties page provides access to various properties, status, and settings for your IMM2:
|
Users | The Users page allows you to configure the IMM2 login profiles and global login settings, and to view users that are currently logged in to the IMM2. Global login settings include enabling Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) compute node authentication, setting the web inactivity timeout, and customizing the account security settings. | |
Network | The Network Protocol Properties page provides access to networking properties, status, and settings for your IMM2:
| |
IMM Management | Security | The IMM Security page provides access to security properties, status, and settings for your IMM2:
|
IMM Configuration | The IMM Configuration page displays a summary of the current IMM2 configuration settings. It also provides the following functions:
Note Backups that you make from the IMM user interface will not contain any local user accounts that were created from the IMM user interface. | |
Restart IMM | The Restart IMM page allows you to reset the IMM. | |
Reset IMM to factory defaults... | The Reset IMM to factory defaults... page allows you to reset the configuration of the IMM2 to the factory defaults. Attention When you click | |
Activation Key Management | The Activation Key Management page allows you to manage activation keys for optional IMM2 or compute node Features on Demand (FoD) features. |
