FUJITSU Software ServerView® Suite
integrated Remote Management
Controller - iRMC S4
Comprehensive remote control of Fujitsu PRIMERGY servers
The ServerView integrated Remote Manage-
ment Controller iRMC S4 enables extensive
monitoring and management of Fujitsu
PRIMERGY servers regardless of their system
status – even in out-of-band operation.
Implemented in a chip on the motherboard it
integrates essential system management
functions with extensive remote management
functionality.
As an autonomous system on the system
board of a Fujitsu PRIMERGY server, iRMC S4
has its own operating system, its own web
server, separate user management and
independent alert management. iRMC S4
remains powered up even when the server is
in stand-by mode.
Communication is carried out via a LAN
connection, which can be shared with the
Fujitsu PRIMERGY server or used exclusively for
system management.
iRMC S4 forwards the signals from the
keyboard, monitor and mouse digitally over
the network. In addition to all free standard
functions, an iRMC S4 advanced pack can be
purchased enabling graphical console
redirection - Advanced Video Redirection (AVR)
- and the use of multiple remote storage
connections.
iRMC S4 gives administrators or service
technicians access to the server for extensive
control, even at decentralized locations. In the
event of server problems, routine tasks and
maintenance can be carried out efficiently.
iRMC S4 combines long-term expertise and
practical experience gained with its successful
predecessors. On top of the proven technology
of iRMC S3, the new iRMC S4 features
additional functionality including:
Remote control of server-internal HDDs and
RAID configurations also in agentless
out-of-band operation, video capturing as a
useful tool for remote troubleshooting, Virtual
Media for remotely connecting multiple
CD/DVD, HDD or FDD images or physical
drives, as well as support of the open standard
CIM (Common Information Model) via the
Management LAN connection.
As an important component within the
ServerView embedded Lifecycle Management
(eLCM) for Fujitsu PRIMERGY server the iRMC
S4 supports here routine management tasks
of system administrators with simplified,
highly integrated and automated server
management processes.
