  • Page 17: Ipmi

    The V6000 and V6100 DSM hardware appliances support the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI). IPMI is a computer interface specification for autonomous computer subsystems. It provides remote access to the V6000 and V6100 hardware appliances. It allows administrators to remotely monitor appliance health (temperature, power consumption, physical drive status, chassis intrusion), perform remote cold boots (power off and power on), and access the DSM CLI from a remote location.

It cannot be configured with a Luna SA HSM). The purpose of an HSM is to protect sensitive data from being stolen by providing a highly secure operation structure.

    DSM HA clusters register to the same partition. Note Thales does not recommend having multiple HA clusters registered to the same partition because it decreases fault tolerance. In the PED-authenticated Luna, you can also have multiple clusters using different partitions on the same Luna, or you can use multiple Lunas, for increased fault tolerance.
