Updating the baseboard
management controller firmware
The baseboard management controller (BMC) performs several system
management functions such as:
■
Monitoring server components and sensors
■
Managing nonvolatile storage for the system event log and sensor data
records
■
Interfacing with the emergency management port (RJ-45 serial on back
panel) and LAN 1 port to send alerts and interact with remote management
systems.
■
Providing the main front panel controls (such as power and reset).
You should update the BMC firmware when Gateway Technical Support has
instructed you to update it.
