threshold or if a system component fails, the IMM2 lights LEDs to help you
diagnose the problem, records the error in the IMM2 system event log, and
alerts you to the problem.
Optionally, the IMM2 also provides a virtual presence capability for remote
systems management capabilities. The IMM2 provides remote systems
management through industry-standard interfaces:
– Common Information Model (CIM)
– Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) version 2.0
– Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) version 3.0
– Web browser
v Hard disk drive support
The blade server supports up to two 2.5-inch hot-swap SAS SFF hard disk
drives. You can implement RAID 0 or RAID 1 for the drives.
v
IBM Systems Director
IBM Systems Director is a platform-management foundation that streamlines the
way you manage physical and virtual systems in a heterogeneous environment.
By using industry standards, IBM Systems Director supports multiple operating
systems and virtualization technologies for IBM and non-IBM x86 platforms. For
more information, see “IBM Systems Director” on page 9.
v IBM ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD
The ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD provides programs to help you set up
the blade server and install a Windows operating system. The ServerGuide
program detects installed optional hardware devices and provides the correct
configuration programs and device drivers. For more information about the
ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD, see “Using the ServerGuide Setup and
Installation CD” on page 52.
v
Microprocessor technology
The blade server supports up to two Intel Xeon microprocessors. For more
information about supported microprocessors and their part numbers, see the
Problem Determination and Service Guide .
v
Integrated network support
The integrated Emulex BE3 dual-port Gigabit Ethernet controller supports
connections to a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps network through an
Ethernet-compatible switch module in the chassis. The controller also supports
Wake on LAN

technology.
The blade server has connectors on the system board for optional expansion
adapters for adding network communication capabilities to the blade server.
Depending on the model, you can install up to two I/O expansion adapters for
network support. This provides the flexibility to install expansion adapters that
support a variety of network communication technologies.
v
I/O expansion
The blade server has connectors on the system board for optional expansion
cards for adding more network communication capabilities to the blade server.
v
Large system-memory capacity
The blade server system board supports up to 256 GB of system memory. The
memory controller provides support for up to sixteen industry-standard
registered ECC DDR3 on Very Low Profile (VLP) form factor DIMMs installed
on the system board. For the most current list of supported DIMMs, see the
