Acer Advance Server Management (ASMe)

Acer Advance Server Management (ASMe) is a system management
package that is included on the ASMe CD. ASMe applications interact
with the integrated hardware system management features of the
server to allow you to monitor and manage a server from a remote
workstation:

Remote connection from a Windows-based client workstation over
a LAN, or over a modem or direct serial connection to the
emergency management port on the server.

Real-time monitoring and alerting for server hardware sensors.

Emergency management when the server is off (but still connected
to AC power) lets you verify the state of the server, diagnose
hardware problems, and power on/off or reset the server.

Run the System Setup Utility to change the server configuration.

ASMe can use an optional service partition on the server that you are
managing. The service partition is a special disk partition on the system
drive that contains a ROM-DOS operating system and DOS-based
utilities, including the System Setup Utility, FRU/SDR Load Utility, and
Remote Diagnostics. The server can be booted to the service partition,
either locally or remotely, to provide access to the utilities.

For more information on Acer Advance Server Management and the
individual ASMe applications, see the ASMe CD.
