the problem. Optionally, the IMM also provides a virtual presence capability for
remote server management capabilities. The IMM provides remote server
management through the following industry-standard interfaces:
– Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) version 2.0
– Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) version 3.0
– Common Information Model (CIM)
– Web browser
Some of the features that are unique to the IMM are enhanced performance,
higher-resolution remote video, expanded security options, and Feature on
Demand enablement for hardware and firmware options.

v Integrated network support
The server comes with an integrated dual-port Intel Gigabit Ethernet controller,
which supports connection to a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps network. For
more information, see "Configuring the Ethernet controller" on page 119.
v Integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
This integrated security chip performs cryptographic functions and stores
private and public secure keys. It provides the hardware support for the Trusted
Computing Group (TCG) specification. You can download the software to
support the TCG specification, when the software is available. You can enable
TPM support through the Setup utility under the System Security menu option.
v Large data-storage capacity and hot-swap capability
The hot-swap server models support a maximum of eight 2.5-inch or three
3.5-inch hot-swap Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) hard disk drives or hot-swap Serial
ATA (SATA) hard disk drives. The simple-swap server models support a
maximum of three 3.5-inch simple-swap SATA hard disk drives.
With the hot-swap feature, you can add, remove, or replace hard disk drives
without turning off the server.
v Large system-memory capacity
The server can support up to 768 GB of system memory. The server provides 24
dual inline memory module (DIMM) connectors. The server memory controller
supports error correcting code (ECC) for PC3-8500 (DDR3-1066), PC3-10600
(DDR3-1333), PC3-12800 (DDR3-1600), or PC3-14900 (DDR3-1866), DDR3
(third-generation double-data-rate), synchronous dynamic random access
memory (SDRAM) DIMMs.
v Light path diagnostics
Light path diagnostics provides LEDs to help you diagnose problems. For more
information about light path diagnostics and the LEDs, see "Light path
diagnostics" on page 134 and "Light path diagnostics LEDs" on page 137.
v Mobile access to IBM Service Information website
The server provides a QR code on the system service label, which is on the
cover of the server, that you can scan using a QR code reader and scanner with
a mobile device to get quick access to the IBM Service Information website. The
IBM Service Information website provides additional information for parts
installation and replacement videos, and error codes for server support. For the
QR code, see QR code information on page Chapter 1, "The IBM System x3550
M4 server," on page 1.
