Using the remote presence and blue-screen capture features

The remote presence and blue-screen capture features are integrated functions of the integrated
management module II (IMM2).
The remote presence feature provides the following functions:
• Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 at 75 Hz, 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.
For more information on Features on Demand (FoD), including instructions for automating the activation and
installation of the activation key by using ToolsCenter or Systems Director, see the System x Features on
Demand User's Guide at http://www.ibm.com/systems/x/fod/ under the Help section.
Note: The server may need to be restarted to activate the feature.
