service-processor control, monitoring, and alerting function. If an environmental condition exceeds
a threshold or if a system component fails, the IMM lights LEDs to help you diagnose the problem,
records the error in the IMM event log, and alerts you to the problem. Optionally, the IMM also provides a
virtual presence capability for remote server management capabilities. The IMM provides remote server
management through the following industry-standard interfaces:
– Intelligent Platform Management Protocol (IPMI) version 2.0
– Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) version 3
– Common Information Model (CIM)
– Web browser

integrated management module” on page 38, Appendix A “Integrated Management Module 2.1
(IMM2.1) error messages” on page 229, and the

• Lenovo Dynamic System Analysis
Two editions of Lenovo Dynamic System Analysis (DSA) are available for diagnosing problems, DSA
Portable and DSA Preboot:
– DSA Portable
DSA Portable collects and analyzes system information to aid in diagnosing server problems. DSA
Portable runs on the server operating system and collects the following information about the server:
– Drive health information
– Event logs for ServeRAID controllers and service processors
– IMM configuration information
– IMM environmental information
– Installed hardware, including PCI and USB information
– Installed applications and hot fixes
– Kernel modules
– Light path diagnostics status
– Microprocessor, input/out hub, and UEFI error logs
– Network interfaces and settings
– Option card driver and firmware information
– RAID controller configuration
– Service processor (integrated management module) status and configuration
– System configuration
– Vital product data, firmware, and UEFI configuration
DSA Portable creates a DSA log, which is a chronologically ordered merge of the system-event log
(as the IPMI event log), the integrated management module (IMM) event log (as the ASM event log),
and the operating-system event logs. You can send the DSA log as a file to Lenovo Support (when
requested by Lenovo Support) or view the information as a text file or HTML file.
Note: Use the latest available version of DSA to make sure you are using the most
recent configuration data. For documentation and download information for DSA, see

diagnostic test results” on page 829.
