2. The ServerGuide program stores information about the server model, service
processor, hard disk drive controllers, and network adapters. Then, the program
checks the CD for newer device drivers. This information is stored and then
passed to the operating-system installation program.
3. The ServerGuide program presents operating-system partition options that are
based on your operating-system selection and the installed hard disk drives.
4. The ServerGuide program prompts you to insert your operating-system CD and
restart the server. At this point, the installation program for the operating system
takes control to complete the installation.
Installing your operating system without using ServerGuide
If you have already configured the server hardware and you are not using the
ServerGuide program to install your operating system, complete the following steps
to download the latest operating-system installation instructions from the IBM Web
site.
Note: Changes are made periodically to the IBM Web site. The actual procedure
might vary slightly from what is described in this document.

Using the integrated management module
The integrated management module (IMM) is a second generation of the functions
that were formerly provided by the baseboard management controller hardware. It
combines service processor functions, video controller, and (when an optional
virtual media key is installed) remote presence function in a single chip.
For more information about IMM, see the Integrated Management Module User's
Guide at http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/supportsite.wss/

The IMM supports the following basic systems-management features:
v Environmental monitor with fan speed control for temperature, voltages, fan
failure, and power supply failure.
v
DIMM error assistance. The Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI)
disables a failing DIMM that is detected during POST, and the IMM lights the
associated system error LED and the failing DIMM error LED.
v
System-event log (SEL).
v ROM-based IMM firmware flash updates.
v
Auto Boot Failure Recovery (ABR).
v A virtual media key, which enables remote presence support (remote video,
remote keyboard/mouse, and remote storage).
v
Nonmaskable interrupt (NMI) detection and reporting.
v Automatic Server Restart (ASR) when POST is not complete or the operating
system hangs and the operating system watchdog timer times-out. The IMM
