ICMB is the RS-485-based inter-chassis management bus, based on IPMB. It is used for
common chassis and emergency management functions, including power and reset
control, chassis status, events, and FRU inventory.
BMC is used to monitor baseboard temperatures and voltages, and to manage the system
event log and non-volatile storage for sensor data records. It provides a system software
interface to the IPMB.
