The server firmware offers several features, including Unified Extensible
Firmware Interface (UEFI) 2.1 compliance, enhanced RAS capabilities, and BIOS
compatibility support. UEFI replaces the basic input/output system (BIOS) and
defines a standard interface between the operating system, platform firmware,
and external devices. UEFI-compliant servers are capable of starting
UEFI-compliant operating systems, BIOS-based operating systems, and
BIOS-based adapters as well as UEFI-compliant adapters.
Note: The server does not support DOS.
The integrated management module (IMM) combines service processor
functions, video controller, and remote presence function in a single chip. The
IMM provides advanced service-processor control, monitoring, and alerting
function. If an environmental condition exceeds a threshold or if a system
component fails, the IMM lights LEDs to help you diagnose the problem, records
the error in the event log, and alerts you to the problem. The IMM also provides
a virtual presence capability for remote server management capabilities. The IMM
provides remote server management through industry-standard interfaces:
– Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) version 2.0
– Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) version 3
– Common Information Model (CIM)
– Web browser
The remote presence feature provides the following functions:
– Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 at 85 Hz,
regardless of the system state
