Replacing the Cooling Fans Cooling fans may wear down eventually. Please refer to the steps below for replacing cooling fans. When using a new cooling fan, just reverse the steps to install the fan back onto the enclosure and the system. 1.
Mounting the System There are various methods to mount this system based on your application and the environment. This system came with two types of mounting kits for a typical rack or enclosure mounting installation or installing this system in a rack: Ear Brackets This method is quick and easy by fixing this system to the front posts of the rack while being the most unstable method, for the bracket assembly alone cannot provide sufficient support to the chassis.
Installing the AC Power Supply Power supply units wear down eventually. Please be noted that this system supports only 300W PSU. Please prepare the power supply units matching this capacity. 1. On the rear panel, locate the power supply units and disconnect the power cords.
Remote Server Management This document specifies the BMC firmware features of Lanner. The BMC firmware implements IPMI 2.0 based on ASPEED service processor. It performs all the BMC management tasks defined by IPMI 2.0. In addition, Lanner’s BMC firmware runs an embedded web-server for full configuration using Web UI, which has a low learning curve.
Page 41
System health monitoring The BMC implements system sensor monitoring feature. It could monitor voltage, temperature, and current of critical components. System Power Management The BMC implements chassis power and resets functions for system administrators to control and manage the system power behavior. These functions can be activated by sending the IPMI 2.0 compatible chassis commands to the BMC over messaging interfaces.
Page 42
Serial over LAN (SOL) IPMI 2.0 SOL is implemented to redirect the system serial controller traffic over an IPMI session. System administrators are able to establish a SOL connection with a standard IPMI client, like IPMITOOL, to remotely interact with serial text-based interfaces such as OS command-line and serial redirected BIOS interfaces. User Management The BMC supports 9 IDs for IPMI user accounts.
