The board also contains EEPROM FRU information storage. Server Management The Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) monitors system platform management events and logs their occurrences in the non-volatile System Event Log (SEL). This includes events such as over-temperature and over-voltage conditions, and fan failures. The BMC can also provide the interface to the monitored information so system management software can poll and retrieve the present status of the platform. The BMC also provides the interface to the non-volatile Sensor Data Record (SDR) Repository. Sensor Data Records provide a set of information that system management software can use to automatically configure itself for the number and type of IPMI sensors (such as temperature and voltage sensors) in the system. 57

The power distribution board provides docking connectors for the hot-swappable power supply

modules and distributes power to the main board and SCSI backplane. The board also contains

EEPROM FRU information storage.

Server Management

The Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) monitors system platform management events and

logs their occurrences in the non-volatile System Event Log (SEL). This includes events such as

over-temperature and over-voltage conditions, and fan failures. The BMC can also provide the

interface to the monitored information so system management software can poll and retrieve the

present status of the platform.

The BMC also provides the interface to the non-volatile Sensor Data Record (SDR) Repository.

Sensor Data Records provide a set of information that system management software can use to

automatically configure itself for the number and type of IPMI sensors (such as temperature and

voltage sensors) in the system.
