Using The Command-Line Interface; Using The Simple Network Management Protocol (Snmp) - IBM JS20 - BladeCenter - 8842 Installation And User Manual

If the system was booted using the permanent image instead of the temporary
image (as shown in the preceding example), the screen example would show:
The system is currently booted from the permanent firmware image.
and the last selection option is changed to:
Reject the Temporary Image

Using the command-line interface

The IBM BladeCenter management-module command-line interface provides direct
access to BladeCenter management functions as an alternative to using the
BladeCenter management-module Web interface. Through the command-line
interface, you can issue commands to control the power and configuration of the
blade server and other components in the BladeCenter unit. The command-line
interface also provides access to the text-console command prompt for each blade
server through an SOL connection. This enables the blade servers to be managed
from a remote location. For information and instructions, see the BladeCenter and
BladeCenter T Management Module Command-Line Interface Reference Guide.

Using the simple network management protocol (SNMP)

In addition to the management-module command-line interface, you can use the
simple network management protocol (SNMP) to perform configuration procedures.
SNMP commands are described in the BladeCenter and BladeCenter T
Management Module Command-Line Interface Reference Guide. For additional
information about SNMP requirements, features, functions, and variables, see the
documentation that comes with the Ethernet switch module that you are using; for
example:
