Functions of the iRMC S2/S3
Power consumption control
The iRMC S2/S3 allows comprehensive power consumption control on the
managed server. In addition, you can specify the mode (minimum power
consumption or maximum performance) that the iRMC S2/S3 uses to control
power consumption on the managed server. You can switch between these
modes as required.
Customer Self Service (CSS)
Summary tables for the server components, sensors and the power supply
on the iRMC S2/S3 web interface provide information in a separate column
as to whether the server component affected is a CSS component or not. In
addition, error list of the system event log (SEL) shows for every event
whether it has been triggered by a CSS component.
Text console redirection
You can start a Telnet/SSH session to the iRMC S2/S3 from the ServerView
Remote Management Frontend. This calls the Remote Manager, via which
you can start a text console redirection session.
Basic functions of a BMC
The iRMC S2/S3 supports the basic functions of a BMC such as voltage
monitoring, event logging and recovery control.
“Headless” system operation
The managed server does not require a mouse, monitor or keyboard to be
connected. The benefits of this include lower costs, far simpler cabling in the
rack and increased security.
Identification LED
To facilitate identification of the system, for instance if it is installed in a fully
populated rack, you can activate the identification LED from the iRMC S2/S3
web interface.
Global error LED
A global error LED informs you of the status of the managed system at all
times and at the same time shows the CSS (Customer Self Service) status.
Power LED
The power LED informs you whether the server is currently switched on or
off.
