One for the BMC and one for the RSAII adapter built onboard. With that said, If i recall correctly, you can set two IPs in the BIOS. I don't pay the power bill so the power draw is not my problem. I have three left still in production use at work and they were put in almost 11 years ago i think. If so, do not use it, as it will last forever and you will continue to use it so long as it works. Depending on what you want to do with the IMM, those might be useful.īy M1, I presume you mean the first model (mine were all 7979-AC1 boxes), so just an X3650 that runs 5000/5100/5200/5300 series Xeon processors with DDR2 FB-DIMMS? Virtual Media and KVM access are the usual features you can get. You can get those pretty cheaply on eBay these days. There was a time period when IBM required hardware license keys to activate features on the IMMs.

After updating the firmware on that IMM, then it worked great with modern IE/Chrome/Firefox. I had to revert to a copy of FireFox 9 to get the correct 'old' settings to allow the web interface to work correctly.

I work with a lot of these older IBM systems and the other day I had to update some older IMM2 systems on older x3250 M4 systems. The older versions of the software have known issues with modern browsers. The other thing I'd recommend is to go through the box and update ALL firmware.

The documentation on the box should be able to give you more details on the exact situation.

You may need to get a license key for basic web functionality though. My understanding is that the older actual IMMs (not the even older IBM management adapters before the introduction of IMM) didn't require a license key/adapter to ping and manage through IPMI. Either way, you should be able to ping the IMM once its up and configured correctly. Check the settings in BIOS to see if it is trying to share an existing adapter, or if it is dedicated to the IMM adapter. Like the others, I don't have any specific IMM details for the M1, however, if it is like the M2, M3, M4, or M5, then you will be able to ping the IMM when it's configured correctly, and when you have it cabled correctly.
