The PRIMERGY BX400 S1 system unit has slots for two redundant, hot-swap
management blades with an integrated management solution for complete
remote administration of the system. The basic configuration of the BX400 S1
system unit contains one management blade.
The management blades offer user-friendly user interfaces: a Web interface
and a console menu interface via Telnet protocol. For a detailed description, see
the manual "PRIMERGY BX400 Blade Server Systems ServerView
Management Blade S1 User Interface Description".
The slots for the management blades are located on the back of the system unit
(see

A management blade is installed and removed in the same way as a connection
blade (see
"Installing a connection blade" on page 125

management blade firmware. Use for the update the management blade
web interface, see "PRIMERGY BX400 Blade Server Systems

When two management blades are installed, make sure that both
management blades (master/slave) have the same firmware version.
