• Memory mirroring and memory sparing support
• Memory error correcting code and parity test
• Memory downsizing (non-mirrored memory). After a restart of the server after the memory controller
detects a non-mirrored uncorrectable error and the memory controller cannot recover operationally, the
IMM2 logs the uncorrectable error and informs POST. POST logically maps out the memory with the
uncorrectable error, and the server restarts with the remaining installed memory.
• Menu-driven setup, system configuration, and redundant array of independent disks (RAID) configuration
programs
• Microprocessor built-in self-test (BIST), internal error signal monitoring, internal thermal trip signal
monitoring, configuration checking, and microprocessor and voltage regulator module failure identification
through light path diagnostics
• Nonmaskable interrupt (NMI) button
• Parity checking on the PCIe buses
• Power management: compliance with Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)
• Power-on self-test (POST)
• Predictive Failure Analysis (PFA) alerts on memory, SAS/SATA hard disk drives or solid state drives
• Redundant Ethernet capabilities with failover support
• Redundant hot-swap power supplies and redundant hot-swap fans
• Redundant network interface card (NIC) support
• Remind button to temporarily turn off the system-error LED
• Remote system problem-determination support
• ROM-based diagnostics
• ROM checksums
• Serial Presence Detection (SPD) on memory, VPD on system board, power supply, and hard disk drive or
solid state drive backplanes, microprocessor and memory expansion tray, and Ethernet adapters
• Single-DIMM isolation of excessive correctable error or multi-bit error by the Unified Extensible Firmware
Interface (UEFI)
• Solid-state drives
• Standby voltage for systems-management features and monitoring
• Startup (boot) from LAN through remote initial program load (RIPL) or dynamic host configuration
protocol/boot protocol (DHCP/BOOTP)
• System auto-configuring from the configuration menu
• System-error logging (POST and IMM2)
• Systems-management monitoring through the Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) protocol bus
• Uncorrectable error (UE) detection
• Upgradeable POST, Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI), diagnostics, IMM2 firmware, and
read-only memory (ROM) resident code, locally or over the LAN
• Vital product data (VPD) on microprocessors, system board, power supplies, and SAS/SATA (hot-swap
hard disk drive or solid state drive) backplane
• Wake on LAN capability
IBM Systems Director
IBM Systems Director is a platform-management foundation that streamlines the way you manage physical
and virtual systems supports multiple operating systems and virtualization technologies in IBM and non-IBM
x86 platforms.
Through a single user interface, IBM Systems Director provides consistent views for viewing managed
systems, determining how these systems relate to one other, and identifying their statuses, helping to
correlate technical resources with business needs. A set of common tasks that are included with IBM
Systems Director provides many of the core capabilities that are required for basic management, which
means instant out-of-the-box business value. The common tasks include the following:
• Discovery
• Inventory
