2. On the Login page, type the user name and password. If you are using the IMM
for the first time, you can obtain the user name and password from your system
administrator. All login attempts are documented in the event log.
Note: The IMM is set initially with a user name of USERID and password of
PASSW0RD (passw0rd with a zero, not a the letter O). You have
read/write access. You must change the default password the first time
you log on.
3. On the Welcome page, type a timeout value (in minutes) in the field that is
provided. The IMM will log you off of the Web interface if your browser is
inactive for the number of minutes that you entered for the timeout value.
4. Click Continue to start the session. The System Health page provides a quick
view of the system status.
Enabling the Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet Utility program
The Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet Utility program is part of the server firmware. You
can use it to configure the network as a startable device, and you can customize
where the network startup option appears in the startup sequence. Enable and
disable the Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet Utility program from the Setup utility.
Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller
The Ethernet controllers are integrated on the system board. They provide an
interface for connecting to a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1 Gbps network and provide
full-duplex (FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception
of data on the network. If the Ethernet ports in the server support auto-negotiation,
the controllers detect the data-transfer rate (10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or
1000BASE-T) and duplex mode (full-duplex or half-duplex) of the network and
automatically operate at that rate and mode.
You do not have to set any jumpers or configure the controllers. However, you must
install a device driver to enable the operating system to address the controllers.
To find device drivers and information about configuring the Ethernet controllers,
complete the following steps:
1. Go to http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/.
2. Under Product support , click System x .
3. Under Popular links , click Software and device drivers .
4. From the Product family menu, select System x3550 M2 and click Go .
Note: Changes are made periodically to the IBM Web site. The actual procedure
might vary slightly from what is described in this document.
Using LSI Configuration Utility program
Use the LSI Configuration Utility program to configure and manage redundant array
of independent disks (RAID) arrays. Be sure to use this program as described in
this document.
v
Use the LSI Configuration Utility program to perform the following tasks:
– Perform a low-level format on a hard disk drive
– Create an array of hard disk drives with or without a hot-spare drive
– Set protocol parameters on hard disk drives
