HP APM connections
HP APM offers new rack level management solutions that consolidate IT control, monitoring, and console
access to hosted server, storage, fabric, and power resources to a single wire at the chassis level.
•
10 Consolidated Management Ports, which include ethernet, serial, and hardware signaling ports,
connect to each SL chassis mounted rack.
•
Six Power Distribution Module ports are used to interface directly to rack mounted power feed
infrastructure.
•
The Redundant Reset port is used to connects to another HP APM module (Buddy).
The following figure shows the HP APM unit connected to 10 unique chassis through the Consolidated
Management Ports (RDM1). While RDM connectors are provided for backwards compatibility with existing
HP ProLiant SL servers, connecting through the Consolidated Management Ports is the preferred wiring
solution for new SL servers.
