EXPRESSSCOPE Engine 3
EXPRESSSCOPE Engine 3 enables various functions by using a system management LSI called BMC
(Baseboard Management Controller).
EXPRESSSCOPE Engine 3 monitors statuses inside the server such as that of power supplies, fans,
temperature, and voltage. Connecting the management LAN port to your network enables you to do the
following from a remote site via a Web browser and SSH client;
•
Managing the server
•
Operating KVM (keyboard, video, and mouse) from a remote console (*)
•
Accessing a CD-ROM, DVD ROM, floppy disk, ISO image, or USB flash drive in a remote console (*)
* To actualize these functions, virtual USB mass storage (Remote FD, Remote CD/DVD, Remote USB Memory,
or Virtual Flash) is always connected as USB mass storage.
Tips
To reset BMC, use the Off-line Tool of the server.
Refer to Chapter 3 (2. BMC Configuration) for details.
