Lenovo XClarity Controller
Lenovo XClarity Controller is the management processor for the server. It is the third generation of the
Integrated Management Module (IMM) service processor that consolidates the service processor
functionality, super I/O, video controller, and remote presence capabilities into a single chip on the server
system board.
There are two ways to access the management processor:
• Web-based interface. To access the web-based interface, point your browser to the IP address for the
management processor.
• Command-line interface. To access the CLI interface, use SSH or Telnet to log in to the management
processor.
Whenever power is applied to a server, the management processor is available. From the management
processor interface, you can perform the following functions:
• Monitor all hardware devices installed in the server.
• Power the server on and off.
• View the system event log and system audit log for the server.
• Use the Remote management function to log in to the server itself.
