This topic provides information about the IMM2 functions available from the web interface.
Navigate to the top of the IMM2 window to perform activities with the IMM2. The title bar identifies the user name that is logged in. The title bar allows you to configure Settings for the status screen refresh rate and a custom trespass message, and Log out of the IMM2 web interface as shown in the following illustration. 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 “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 System Information, 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 IMM2 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 | Problems | The Problems page allows you to view current unresolved problems that are serviceable by the Support Center. You can also view the status of each problem as related to its resolution. |
Settings | The Settings page configures your server to monitor and report service events. | |

Server Management (continued on next page) | Server Firmware | The Server Firmware page displays firmware levels and allows you to update the IMM2 firmware, server firmware, and DSA firmware. |
Remote Control | The Remote Control page allows you to control the server at the operating system level. It provides access to both Remote Disk and Remote Console functionality. You can view and operate the server 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 server. When you have mounted a disk, you can use it to restart the server and to update firmware on the server. The mounted disk appears as a USB disk drive that is attached to the server. | |

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 server. For your IMM2 to capture operating system failure screens, the operating system watchdog must be enabled. | |
