Using the remote presence capability and blue-screen capture
The remote presence and blue-screen capture features are integrated functions of
the integrated management module (IMM). When an optional virtual media key is
installed in the server, it activates full systems-management functions. The virtual
media key is required to enable the integrated remote presence and blue-screen
capture features. Without the virtual media key, you cannot remotely mount or
unmount drives or images on the client system. However, you still can access the
Web interface without the key.
After the virtual media key is installed in the server, it is authenticated to determine
whether it is valid. If the key is not valid, you receive a message from the Web
interface (when you attempt to start the remote presence feature) indicating that the
hardware key is required to use the remote presence feature.
