Lenovo System x3630 M4 Product Manual page 27

The optional Integrated Management Module Advanced Upgrade is required to enable the remote
presence and blue-screen capture features. The remote presence feature provides the following functions:
Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1600x1200 at 75 Hz with up to 23 bits per
pixel, regardless of the system state
Remotely accessing the server using the keyboard and mouse from a remote client
Mapping the CD or DVD drive, diskette drive, and USB flash drive on a remote client, and mapping
ISO and diskette image files as virtual drives that are available for use by the server
Uploading a diskette image to the IMM memory and mapping it to the server as a virtual drive
The blue-screen capture feature captures the video display contents before the IMM restarts the server
when the IMM detects an operating system hang condition. A system administrator can use the blue-
screen capture to assist in determining the cause of the hang condition. The following table lists the remote
management option.

In the default UEFI configuration, Ethernet port 2 is configured to be dedicated to remote access to the
IMM2. If preferred, you can change the UEFI setting so that remote access to the IMM2 is via Port 1 and
also accessible to the operating system. This setting is also useful if you do not have a dedicated
management network. The following table shows this setting and its effect on the Ethernet ports.
Note: The IMM2 network must operate 100 Mbps full duplex. The IMM2 network connection does not
support Gigabit Ethernet. In shared mode, the production Ethernet network on that port still operates at
Gigabit speeds.

Light path diagnostics panel
The light path diagnostics panel allows system engineers and administrators to easily and quickly diagnose
hardware problems on the System x servers. If a failure occurs, a light is illuminated on the front panel of
the server (level 1 light path) to alert the systems administrator that there is a problem. The pop-out light
path diagnostics panel (light path level 2) has a light against the failed subsystem. This light directs the
engineer or administrator directly to the failed component, which also has an illuminated LED near it (light
path level 3), for example, the DIMM error LED on the system board.
The x3630 M4 offers two variants of light path diagnostics: basic and advanced. All standard x3630 M4
models include basic functionality that provides light path levels 1 and 3. Advanced functionality is
optional, and contains a pop-out panel that adds light path level 2. Storage-rich x3630 M4 servers (servers
with 12 or 14 drive bays) only support basic light path.
