events occurs, the Advanced System Management service
can be configured to automatically forward an alert in one
of four ways:
To another xSeries system using the modem
To a standard numeric pager
To an alphanumeric pager
To another xSeries system using the network
connection (available only when using Advanced
System Management service with an xSeries
Advanced System Management PCI Adapter)
With this service, you can use the system's modem to dial
out and directly access and control a remote system's
Advanced System Management PCI Adapter or Advanced
System Management Processor. If the remote system has
a System Management PCI Adapter installed and the
adapter is connected to a Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) network, you can use
the Dynamic Connection Manager service (installed when
you installed the Advanced System Management service)
to open a TCP/IP link with the System Management PCI
Adapter from the Systems Management software system.
Finally, if the System Management PCI Adapter or
Advanced System Management Processor is connected to
an Advanced System Management (ASM) Interconnect
network, or if the remote System Management PCI
Adapter adapter or Advanced System Management
Processor to which you have connected using the system's
modem or TCP/IP connection is connected to an ASM
Interconnect network, you can use this connection to
access and manage the Advanced System Management
PCI Adapter or Advanced System Management Processor
of any other system that is connected to the ASM
Interconnect network.
