The blue-screen capture feature captures the video display contents before the IMM
restarts the server when the IMM detects an operating-system hang condition. A
system administrator can use the blue-screen capture to assist in determining the
cause of the hang condition.
Enabling the remote presence feature
To enable the remote presence feature, complete the following steps:
1. Install the virtual media key into the dedicated slot on the system board (see
“System-board optional device connectors” on page 46).
2. Turn on the server.

Approximately 20 to 40 seconds after the server is connected to power,
the power-control button becomes active.

address for the IMM of 192.168.70.125. To locate the IP address, complete the
following steps:

on the screen for only a few seconds. You must press F1 quickly.) If you have
set both a power-on password and an administrator password, you must type
the administrator password to access the full Setup utility menu.

Logging on to the Web interface
To log on to the Web interface to use the remote presence functions, complete the
following steps:
1. Open a Web browser on a computer that connects to the server and in the
address
or
URL
field, type the IP address or host name of the IMM to which
you want to connect.
Note:
The IMM defaults to DHCP. If a DHCP host is not available, the IMM
assigns a static IP address of 192.168.70.125.
