microprocessor.
The IMM also provides the following remote server management capabilities
through the OSA SMBridge management utility program:

Command-line interface (IPMI Shell)
The command-line interface provides direct access to server management
functions through the IPMI 2.0 protocol. Use the command-line interface to issue
commands to control the server power, view system information, and identify the
server. You can also save one or more commands as a text file and run the file
as a script.
v
Serial over LAN
Establish a Serial over LAN (SOL) connection to manage servers from a remote
location. You can remotely view and change the UEFI settings, restart the server,
identify the server, and perform other management functions. Any standard Telnet
client application can access the SOL connection.
Using the embedded hypervisor
The VMware ESXi embedded hypervisor is available on server models that come
with an installed USB embedded hypervisor flash device. The USB flash device
comes installed in the USB connector on the system board. Hypervisor is
virtualization software that enables multiple operating systems to run on a host
system at the same time. The USB flash device is required to activate the
hypervisor functions.
To start using the embedded hypervisor functions, you must add the USB flash
device to the boot order in the Setup utility.
To add the USB flash device to the boot order, complete the following steps:
1. Turn on the server.
Note:
Approximately 20 seconds after the server is connected to AC power, the
power-control button becomes active.
2. When the prompt
<F1> Setup
