Introduction
Rackable Systems manufactures a management card that is built into some of their servers. It
interfaces between the Digi CM unit and the server’s serial port. In normal mode, it allows
transparent communication between the Digi CM unit and the server. After detecting an escape
sequence, it allows you to control functions from the server independently of the main processor.
The controllable functions are listed below:
▪
Switching power on or off
▪
Rebooting
▪
Turning the status LED on or off
▪
Programming the LCD panel
▪
Reading the temperature from inside the server
▪
Setting the power on delay
The Digi CM unit offers a graphical web based user interface to manage the Rackable Systems
Management Card.
