8. System Interfaces
Front Control Panel and LEDs display status and give power control (chassis ID, on/off/reboot). NMI Reset Button not supported (it does nothing). BMC Web-based interface on server platforms allows for hardware monitoring, alerts, and remote management. alerts require configuration & connection to a mail (SMTP) server. Java Runtime Environment 6 (or later) required for remote desktop. The Web-based Fan Base Service Page lets customers set fans in a “Safe to Service” mode for replacing fan modules (otherwise emergency shut-down starts after 10 seconds). MegaRAID Storage Manager monitors capacity drives and RAID processes (mirrors, rebuilds, etc.). The command-line interface CLI Zoning tool (not shown) also has options to view & change drive power status.
