1 Introduction

Overview

Appliance Server Management (ASM) is an HTML-based set of tools you can use to configure some settings and view information on the ISP1100 Internet Server. There are four sets of ASM tools: the system health tools, system information tools, system control tools, and BIOS configuration tools.

System Health Tools

System health tools let you:
Monitor the server’s temperature, voltage, fans, and disk status. See
“Sensors, Events, and Alerts” on page 15.
Control how the server notifies you when a health sensor detects a
problem. See “Sensors, Events, and Alerts” on page 15.
Monitor the server’s CPU and Memory Utilization. See “CPU and
Memory Utilization” on page 18.
Configure Predictive Failure settings. See “Predictive Failure” on
page 18.
Configure Watch Dog Timer settings. See “Watch Dog Timer” on
page 19.

System Information Tools

System information tools let you: View the virtual LCD, which shows the system’s status. See “Virtual
LCD” on page 21.
View the System Event Log, which shows a list of recent events. See
“System Event Log” on page 22.
View Inventory information, which includes information about the
