System x3200 M3 Types 7327 and 7328: Problem Determination and Service Guide
The Setup utility is part of the basic input/output system firmware. Use it to
change the startup-device sequence, set the date and time, and set passwords.
For information about using this program, see "Using the Setup utility" on page
225.
The Boot Manager program is part of the server firmware. Use it to override the
startup sequence that is set in the Setup utility and temporarily assign a device to
be first in the startup sequence. For more information about using this program,
see "Using the Boot Manager program" on page 229.
Use the integrated management module (IMM) for configuration, to update the
firmware and sensor data record/field replaceable unit (SDR/FRU) data, and to
remotely manage a network. For information about using these programs, see
"Using the integrated management module" on page 230.
The remote presence and blue-screen capture feature are integrated into the
Integrated Management Module (IMM). The virtual media key is required to
enable the remote presence functions. When the optional virtual media key is
installed in the server, it activates the remote presence functions. Without the
virtual media key, you will not be able to access the network remotely to mount
or unmount drives or images on the client system. However, you will still be able
to access the host graphical user interface through the Web interface without the
Virtual Media Key. To order the optional IBM Virtual Media Key, contact your IBM
marketing representative or authorized reseller. For more information about how
to enable the remote presence function, see "Enabling the remote presence
feature" on page 231.
For information about configuring the Ethernet controller, see "Configuring the
Ethernet controller" on page 233.
Use this program as an alternative to the Setup utility for modifying UEFI
settings. Use the ASU program online or out of band to modify UEFI settings
from the command line without the need to restart the server to access the Setup
utility. For more information about using this program, see "IBM Advanced
Settings Utility program" on page 236.
Use the LSI Configuration Utility program to configure the integrated SAS/SATA
controller with RAID capabilities and the devices that are attached to it. For
information about using this program, see "Using the LSI Configuration Utility
program" on page 234.
The following table lists the different server configurations and the applications
that are available for configuring and managing RAID arrays.
