Remote Diagnostic Management

The Remote Diagnostic Management (RDM) is a network management tool
that utilizes modems and telephone lines to control a host of servers from a
remote station. It monitors and analyzes the server condition, updates the
BIOS settings if necessary, or reboots the server in the event of failure and
quickly return it to normal operation. This capability to execute the RDM
program from a remote site bridges the distance barrier in fixing server
problems and reduces wasted time due to system failure.
Installing the RDM Module
The system board comes with connectors CN25 and CN28 to accommodate
the RDM module.
Follow these steps to install the RDM module and connect the cable:
1. See Figure 1-1 for the location of the RDM connectors.
2. Gently insert the RDM module into CN25 and CN28. The module fits
only in one direction. Do not force it into to the connectors.
