4.11.1 Integrated management module

The x3960 X5 contains the Vitesse VSC452 integrated management module (IMM), which
combines the baseboard management controller (BMC), video controller, and Remote
Supervisor Adapter (RSA) II/CKVM functions into a single chip.
The VSC452 has the following major features:
300 MHz 32-bit processor
BMC I/O, including I
Matrox G200 Video core
DDR2-250 MHz memory controller
USB 2.0 configurable peripheral
Avocent digital video compression
The IMM has the following system management features:
Environmental monitor with fan speed control for temperature, voltages, fan failure, power
supply failure, and power backplane failure
Light path indicators to report fans, power supplies, CPU, voltage regulator module (VRM),
and system errors
System event log
Automatic CPU disable on failure restart in the two-CPU configuration, when one CPU
signals an internal error
Intelligent Platform Management Interface Specification (IPMI) V2.0 and Intelligent
Platform Management Bus (IPMB) support
