system hangs and the OS watchdog timer times out. The IMM might be
configured to watch for the OS watchdog timer and restart the server after a
timeout, if the ASR feature is enabled. Otherwise, the IMM allows the
administrator to generate an NMI by pressing an NMI button on the information
panel for an operating-system memory dump. ASR is supported by IPMI.

schedule power control).
The command-line interface provides direct access to server management
functions through the IPMI 2.0 protocol. Use the command-line interface to issue
commands to control the server power, view system information, and identify the
server. You can also save one or more commands as a text file and run the file
as a script.
Establish a Serial over LAN (SOL) connection to manage servers from a remote
location. You can remotely view and change the UEFI settings, restart the server,
identify the server, and perform other management functions. Any standard Telnet
client application can access the SOL connection.
