The BMC-management features documented in this guide are supported on the following Dell

PowerEdge system:

BMC Configuration and Management Tasks

This user’s guide documents the basic tasks needed to set up and configure the BMC on a

managed system in preparation for using the BMC Management Utility. These basic tasks can be

broken down into the two following sections:

• Configuring a managed system’s BMC
• Managing a remote managed system by accessing its BMC

Configuring the BMC

To configure the BMC in a pre-boot environment, you can use the System Maintenance Utility.

Alternately, you can configure the BMC on a managed system with a running operating system

using the Sever Administrator home page GUI or CLI.

Managing the BMC

To manage a remote managed system by accessing its BMC in a pre-boot environment, or by

accessing the BMC of a nonresponsive system, you must use the BMC Management Utility. To

configure the BMC on a system with a running operating system or to preform everyday BMC

management tasks, you can use the Server Administrator home page GUI.

Planning for Using Your System’s BMC

How you plan to use the BMC to manage your system dictates the configuration procedures you

will need to perform. The following are some likely configuration scenarios:

• Configure BMC LAN alerting so that you can monitor your managed system using IT

Assistant.

• Configure BMC LAN Access so that you can use the BMC Management Utility’s IPMI Shell

to access your system’s BMC over a shared LAN.

• Configure BMC Serial Access so that you can use the BMC Management Utility’s IPMI Shell

or a text console redirection to access your system’s BMC over a serial cable.

• Configure BMC Serial Over LAN Access so that you can use the BMC Management Utility’s

SOL Proxy to access your system’s BMC over a shared LAN to activate console redirection.

Consult the

BMC Configuration Matrix

(Figure 1-1), as well as the sections describing each likely

configuration scenario, before moving on to the next chapter "Configuring Your Managed System."
