RMCP SDRR SEL SMIC SNMP WBEM Remote Management Control Protocol. A network IP-based protocol that provides authentication, access, and session management for management utilities. It can carry embedded IPMI commands and responses between network entities. Sensor Data Record Repository. A required feature of a BMC, this is the material list for IPMI. It starts with the list of sensors, their conversion and units, thresholds, and scanning information. The SDRR also holds FRU lists, entity associations, and HP proprietary entries. The SDRR completely describes the resources of an HP Integrity Server. System Event Log. A required feature of a BMC, this nonvolatile log holds detected events that are important or critical to system operation and might be very useful in post-mortem crash analysis. It is an append-log, and when it is full, it accepts no new events. The hpipmid program monitors the capacity, maintains a disk copy, and clears the log when necessary. Server Management Interface Chip. One of the system interfaces used to connect a BMC to a system CPU. This is a generic design best utilized when the BMC appears as a PCI device.

Methods, data structures, and protocols defined in RFC1155, 1156, and 1157 (earliest references) for data access and control of systems over a network.

RMCP
Remote Management Control Protocol. A network IP-based protocol that provides authentication,
access, and session management for management utilities. It can carry embedded IPMI
commands and responses between network entities.
SDRR
Sensor Data Record Repository. A required feature of a BMC, this is the material list for IPMI.
It starts with the list of sensors, their conversion and units, thresholds, and scanning information.
The SDRR also holds FRU lists, entity associations, and HP proprietary entries. The SDRR
completely describes the resources of an HP Integrity Server.
SEL
System Event Log. A required feature of a BMC, this nonvolatile log holds detected events that
are important or critical to system operation and might be very useful in post-mortem crash
analysis. It is an append-log, and when it is full, it accepts no new events. The
hpipmid
program
monitors the capacity, maintains a disk copy, and clears the log when necessary.
SMIC
Server Management Interface Chip. One of the system interfaces used to connect a BMC to a
system CPU. This is a generic design best utilized when the BMC appears as a PCI device. SMIC
is not used on HP Integrity Servers.
SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol. Methods, data structures, and protocols defined in
RFC1155, 1156, and 1157 (earliest references) for data access and control of systems over a
network. SNMP development began in the early 1980s; today it is a ubiquitous standard, but
also suffers from design hindsight in security and data complexity.
HP Management Base does not directly perform any SNMP operations but its libraries are used
by products that do, such as the Systems Insight Manager SNMP Agents for HP Integrity
Servers.
WBEM
Web-Based Enterprise Management. (pronounced (web-em). Methods, data structures, and
protocols defined by the DMTF for data access and control of systems over a network. WBEM
development began in the late 1990s, it is rich in object-oriented techniques and secure access.
While it will probably never replace SNMP, it will supplant it in newer systems and designs.
HP Management Base does not directly perform any WBEM operations but its libraries are
used by products that do, such as HP Systems Insight Manager WBEM Providers for HP Integrity
Servers.
