Determining Your Server Management Strategy
Oracle Hardware Management Pack
Oracle Hardware Installation Assistant
Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) is system management firmware that is preinstalled on Oracle's x86-based servers and SPARC-based servers. The Oracle ILOM firmware automatically initializes as soon as power is applied to your server. Oracle ILOM enables you to actively manage and monitor components installed in your server. Using Oracle ILOM, you can remotely manage your servers regardless of the state of the host system. You can also configure Oracle ILOM to integrate with other management tools in your data center.
Oracle ILOM enables you to actively manage and monitor the server independently of the operating system state, providing you with a reliable Lights Out Management (LOM) system. With it, you can:
Learn about hardware errors and faults as they occur
Remotely control the power state of your server
Monitor power server consumption metrics
View the graphical and non-graphical consoles for the host
View the current status of sensors and indicators on the system
Determine the hardware configuration of your system
Receive generated alerts about system events in advance through IPMI PETs, SNMP traps, or email alerts.
Access diagnostics supported through for your system
Access RAID controller information (requires installation of the Hardware Management Pack, which is a free download to customers with support)
