ILOM Overview

Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) is a means of remotely managing a hardware device through a service processor (SP). For the Sun Datacenter InfiniBand Switch 648, the SP is the Pigeon Point Shelf Manager within the CMCs. It is often identified in screen output by the acronym, ShMM or shmm1500. ILOM enables monitoring and controlling of users, hardware, services, protocols, and configuration. In some aspects, ILOM is an alternative to switch-specific or CLIA commands.

ILOM has two primary interfaces, a command line and a web interface. The ILOM command-line interface uses 11 commands to affect the ILOM targets. The ILOM web interface enables point-and-click administration of the ILOM components and services. You access these interfaces using the default ilom-admin or ilom-operator user accounts. The ilom-admin account is for ILOM system administration. This account is fully privileged to add, delete, create, enable, disable, and so on, the ILOM targets, components, and services. The ilom-operator account is for users to monitor the many aspects of ILOM, but cannot affect change.

Additionally, the ILOM implementation supports industry-standard SNMP and IPMI interfaces.

When you upgrade the CMC firmware to version 1.0.2 or higher, ILOM 3.0 support is installed. An additional benefit of ILOM is that future CMC, H8, and I4 firmware upgrades are greatly simplified.
