Oracle Engineered Systems Hardware Manager is a BUI-based system-level hardware management utility used by Oracle Service personnel, or under their direction.
The utility provides service personnel with these capabilities:
Hardware dashboard/health view
Hardware inventory summary
Hardware component details
Ability to launch other Oracle MiniCluster tools
Easy access to Oracle ILOM and the MCMU
Problem summary across all components
System-level problem history, and the ability to manually clear hardware faults and warnings
Automatic and manual collection of support file bundles
Manual delivery of support file bundles to My Oracle Support (MOS)
If you change Oracle ILOM root passwords after the installation, you must update the Oracle Engineered Systems Hardware Manager configuration with the new passwords. This action is required so that service personnel can use the tool to ensure optimum problem resolution and health of the system.
There are two accounts in Oracle Engineered Systems Hardware Manager:
admin – Use this account to configure Oracle Engineered Systems Hardware Manager.
service – An account used by Oracle Service personnel.
In addition, Oracle Engineered Systems Hardware Manager must be configured with the passwords for the root account on all the Oracle ILOMs in the system.
