– Basic power management
– Power module redundancy
– Power module redundancy with compute node throttling allowed
You can configure and monitor the power environment by using the Chassis Management Module. For more
information, see the Flex System Chassis Management Module: Command-Line Interface Reference Guide

• Systems-management support
The compute node IMM2 provides a web interface for remote systems-management support. You can
use the interface to view system status and control server management functions and IMM management
settings.
The IMM2 communicates with the Lenovo Flex System Chassis Management Module (CMM) and Flex
System Manager management software (if installed).
– The CMM is a hot-swap module that provides systems-management functions for all
components in an Flex System chassis. It controls a serial port for remote connection
and a 1 Gbps Ethernet remote-management connection. For more information, see the

cli_book.pdf.
– The Flex System Manager management software is a platform-management foundation
that streamlines the way you manage physical and virtual systems in a heterogeneous
environment. By using industry standards, Flex System Manager management
software supports multiple operating systems and virtualization technologies. For more

• Lenovo XClarity Administrator
Lenovo XClarity Administrator is a centralized resource-management solution that enables administrators
to deploy infrastructure faster and with less effort. The solution seamlessly integrates into System x,
ThinkServer, and NeXtScale servers, as well as the Flex System converged infrastructure platform.
Lenovo XClarity Administrator provides:
– Automated discovery
– Agent-free hardware management
– Monitoring
– Firmware updates and compliance
– Pattern-based configuration management
– Deployment of operating systems and hypervisors
Administrators are able to find the right information and accomplish critical tasks faster through an
uncluttered, dashboard-driven graphical user interface (GUI). Centralizing and automating foundational
infrastructure deployment and lifecycle management tasks across large pools of systems frees up
administrator time, and makes resources available to end-users faster.
Lenovo XClarity is easily extended into the leading virtualization management platforms from Microsoft
and VMware using software plug-ins, called Lenovo XClarity Integrators. The solution improves workload
uptime and service-level assurance by dynamically relocating workloads from affected hosts in the cluster
during rolling server reboots or firmware updates, or during predicted hardware failures.
