Chapter 1 Introduction
The MicroBlade Web-based Management Utility is a web-based interface that consolidates and simplifies system management for Supermicro MicroBlade systems. The MicroBlade Web-based Management Utility aggregates and displays data from the SIMCM (the IPMI card designed for Supermicro's MicroBlade Chassis Management Module).
The MicroBlade Web-based Management Utility provides the following key management features:
- Enables IT administrators to view in-depth hardware configuration and status information using a single intuitive interface.
- Provides an OS-independent, remote graphical console.
- Allows remote users to map local media (floppy, CD-ROM, removable disks and hard drives) or ISO images on a shared network drive to a blade server.
Supported Browsers
The following browsers have been tested for use with the MicroBlade Web-based Management Utility. It is recommended that you use the most current revision of the browser you choose. The minimum browser revisions supported by the MicroBlade Web-based Management Utility are shown below:
- Internet Explorer 7
