The Integrated Management Module (IMM) combines service processor functions, video controller,
and remote presence and blue-screen capture features in a single chip. The IMM provides advanced
service-processor control, monitoring, and alerting function. If an environmental condition exceeds
a threshold or if a system component fails, the IMM lights LEDs to help you diagnose the problem,
records the error in the IMM event log, and alerts you to 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 Protocol (IPMI) version 2.0
– Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) version 3
– Common Information Model (CIM)
– Web browser
For more information about the Integrated Management Module (IMM), see "Using the integrated
management module II" on page 90, Appendix A "Integrated Management Module II (IMM2)
error messages" on page 279, and the Integrated Management Module User's Guide at

• IBM Dynamic System Analysis
Two editions of IBM Dynamic System Analysis (DSA) are available for diagnosing problems, DSA Portable
and DSA Preboot:
– DSA Portable
DSA Portable collect and analyze system information to aid in diagnosing server problems. DSA
Portable runs on the server's operating system and collect the following information about the server:
– Drive health information
– Event logs for ServeRAID controllers and service processors
– Installed hardware, including PCI and USB information
– Installed applications and hot fixes
– Kernel modules
– Light path diagnostics status
– Microprocessor, input/out hub, and UEFI error logs
– Network interfaces and settings
– RAID controller configuration
– Service processor (integrated management module) status and configuration
– System configuration
– Vital product data, firmware, and UEFI configuration
DSA Portable create a DSA log, which is a chronologically ordered merge of the system-event log (as
the IPMI event log), the integrated management module (IMM) chassis-event log (as the ASM event
log), and the operating-system event logs. You can send the DSA log as a file to IBM service (when
requested by service) or view the information as a text file or HTML file.
Note: Use the latest available version of DSA to make sure you are using the most
recent configuration data. For documentation and download information for DSA, see

For additional information, see "Dynamic System Analysis" on page 123 and Appendix C "DSA
diagnostic test results" on page 663.
– DSA Preboot
DSA Preboot diagnostic program is stored in the integrated USB memory on the server. DSA Preboot
collects and analyzes system information to aid in diagnosing server problems, as well as offering a
