Remote management
The server contains IBM IMM v2 hardware with basic level functionality (IMM2 Basic), which provides
service-processor control, monitoring, and alerting functions. If an environmental condition exceeds a
threshold or if a system component fails, the IMM lights LEDs to help you diagnose the problem, records
the error in the event log, and alerts you to the problem.
