Connecting to the PAM Web Site
The server is equipped with an integrated Platform Administration and Maintenance software
package, otherwise known as PAM software. One part of PAM software is an embedded
application (MAESTRO) running on the Platform Management Board (PMB) and the other is
an external application running on the Platform Administration Processor (PAP) unit under
Microsoft Windows.
The PAM Web-based administration and maintenance tools give you immediate insight into
system status and configuration. You will use PAM software to operate, monitor, and
configure your server.
Note:
Local and remote access rights to the PAP unit and to the PAM Web site must be configured
by the Customer Administrator. For further details, refer to the Microsoft Windows
documentation and to Setting up PAP Unit Users, on page 5-17.
