Intelligent Platform Management
Interface

The Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) defines a set of
standardized, message-based interfaces that monitor system hardware health
(fan speed, temperature, voltage, power supply, and so on.), control system
components, and store data about important system events in a system event
log (SEL) for later examination. IPMI provides the foundation for remote
platform management.

NOTE: To learn more about IPMI, see intel.com/design/servers/ipmi/.

Baseboard Management Controller

The key component in the IPMI system is the baseboard management
controller (BMC), a microcontroller located on the server’s system board.
BMC is the “intelligence” within the IPMI architecture, responsible for
monitoring and controlling the server’s manageable devices.

BMC is connected to the various sensors through the Intelligent Platform
Management Bus (IPMB), a subset of the I2C bus. System software
communicates with BMC using a keyboard controller style (KCS) interface.

Supported Platform

PowerEdge C6220 II

BMC Key Features and Functions

The features supported by BMC are as follows:

• Support for IPMI v1.5 and v2.0

• Out-of-band monitoring and control for server management over LAN

• Dedicated NIC for remote management via network

• FRU information report, which includes system board part number,
product name, and manufacturer.

• Health status/hardware monitoring report

• View and clear events log

• Event notification by lighting chassis LED indicator and Platform Event
Tra p (P ET)

Template Last Updated - 2/7/2007 5

Guide\Server\Dell\C6220II\BMC\C6220II_BMC_HOM_section1.fm

• Platform Event Filtering (PEF) to take selected action for selected events

• Chassis management, which includes power control, status report, front
panel buttons, and LEDs control

• Watchdog and auto server re-start and recovery

• Multi-session user and alert destination for LAN channel

FILE LOCATION: D:\Projects\User

Using the Web User Interface

The BMC firmware features an embedded web server, enabling users to
connect to the BMC using an Internet browser (Windows Internet Explorer)
without needing to install KVM and virtual storage software on a remote
console.

Web-based GUI is supported on the following browsers:

• Microsoft Windows:

– Internet Explorer 6, 7, 8, 9

– Mozilla Firefox 7, 8, 9

– Google Chrome 3.0 (optional)

•Linux:

– Mozilla Firefox 7, 8, 9

Logging in to the Web User Interface

Users must enter the PowerEdge C6220 II embedded server IP address or
URL (default DHCP\static IP address) into the address bar of the web
browser.

When connecting to the PowerEdge C6220 II using a web browser, Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL) is automatically activated and the display user login form
is displayed prompting for the username and password. This authentication
with SSL protection prevents unauthorized intruders from gaining access to
the PowerEdge C6220 II web server. If authentication is passed, you can
manage the server by privilege.

A security certificate warning displays, choose Continue to this website (not
recommended) to continue.

The user authentication web page is displayed. Enter the default user name
and password, and click OK.

NOTE: BMC event log “Processor #0x1c” or “Processor #0x1d” clarification:

This event is generated from Intel CPU ME (Management Engine). There are two
factors that can cause this event to be triggered, one cause is the processor is hot
and the second cause is the system board has received a power throttling signal
from the chassis controller. You can check the throttling settings if you do not want
to do power throttling.

Console Redirection

The most powerful feature of the Remote Management Controller is the
ability to redirect the host system’s console, managing the host system as
though it were physically in front of you. Note the following about console
redirection:

• You can run a maximum of four simultaneous redirection sessions.

• The Java® Video Viewer (version 1.5.15 or later) is required to run the
console redirection. If the BMC detects that the video viewer is not
installed, you are prompted to install it.

• The recommended display resolution on the management station is at
least 1280 x 1024 pixels at 60 Hz with 32 bit color. If the resolution does
not meet this minimum, you will be unable to view the console in full
screen mode.

• Before using console redirection, verify that the virtual KVM and Media
features are enabled. See "Configuration" on page 43".

• Console redirection remains active even after web session timeout.

Using the Video Viewer

The Video Viewer provides a user interface between the management station
and the managed server, allowing you to see the managed server's desktop and
control its mouse and keyboard functions from your management station.
When you connect to the remote system, the Video Viewer login screen
prompts for the password.

The Video Viewer provides various control adjustments such as snapshots,
keyboard macros, mouse synchronization, power actions, and access to Virtual
Media. Click the Help menu for more information on these functions.

When you start a console redirection session and the Video Viewer appears,
you may need to adjust the video color mode and synchronize the mouse
pointers.

IPMI 1.5/2.0 Command Support List

The IPMItool program provides a simple command-line interface for
managing IPMI-enabled devices. The IPMItool enables you to read the BMC
devices, BMC watchdog timer, PEF/PET alerts, SDR, events, SEL, FRU
information, serial/modem devices, set LAN configuration parameters,
update the BMC firmware remotely and perform remote server chassis or sled
server power control.

NOTE: For more information about the standard IPMI tool commands, see

ipmitool.sourceforge.net/manpage.html.

The following tables include all commands defined in the IPMI v2.0
specifications. All mandatory commands and some optional functions are
supported. Special functions beyond the scope of IPMI v2.0 are implemented
as original equipment manufacturer (OEM) commands.

In the O/M column:

• M = Mandatory in the IPMI spec and is implemented.

• O = Optional command supported in this implementation.

• N = Not supported in this implementation.

See the Deployment Toolkit Version 1.3 User's Guide for additional
information about installing and using the DTK utilities, and the
Deployment Toolkit Version 1.3 Command Line Interface Reference Guide
for a complete list of all valid options, suboptions, and arguments for using
the BMCCFG.EXE to configure and manage your BMC.

NOTE: For a complete list of all valid options, requirements, and commands refer to

the BMC Firmware Requirements for DCS/PE-C 1.02 documentation.
