Oracle Hardware Management Pack

Oracle Hardware Management Pack provides tools to help you manage and configure your Oracle servers. Refer to Server Management Tools in Sun Server X4-4 Product Notes to see which versions of Oracle Hardware Management Pack are supported.

Hardware Management Pack enables you to do the following using command-line tools:

  • Use a management agent at the operating system level to enable in-band monitoring of your Oracle hardware over Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). You can use this information to integrate your Oracle servers into your data center management infrastructure.

  • Configure BIOS, UEFI BIOS, RAID volumes and Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) service processors on your servers.

  • Upgrade your server components' firmware.

  • View hardware configuration information and the status of your Oracle servers.

  • Configure an ILOM trap proxy that forwards SNMP traps from your Oracle ILOM service processor over the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect.

  • Use IPMItool to access server service processors using the IPMI protocol and perform management tasks.

  • Use Oracle Linux Fault Management Architecture (FMA) host-based command-line interface to view and act on faults from the host operating system using fault management commands similar to those available from the Oracle ILOM Fault Management shell. The Oracle Linux FMA software is available starting with Oracle Hardware Management Pack 2.3 and supported for the Sun Server X4-4 running Oracle Linux 6.5 with system software 1.1.0.
