Emergency management port
console
The emergency management port (EMP) console provides an interface,
called the console manager, to the EMP. This interface allows remote server
management via a modem or direct connection. The EMP console must be
run on a separate (client) system running either Windows 95 or
Windows NT.
The following server control operations are available with the console
manager:
•
Connecting to remote servers
•
Powering the server on or off
•
Resetting the server
•
Switching the server console between EMP active and BIOS re-
direct modes
The console manager uses three management plug-ins to monitor the
server: the SEL, SDR, and FRU viewers.
The console manager also has a support plug-in phonebook, which you can
use to create and maintain a list of servers and their phone numbers. You
can launch the Connect dialog directly from the Phonebook dialog to
connect to a selected server.
