IBM IMM activation key 743
The IBM Integrated Management Module (IMM) is a feature of IBM System x servers that provides advanced service-processor control, monitoring, and an alerting function. The IMM allows remote server management, hardware status monitoring, system configuration, firmware updates, and power control. The IMM also provides a web interface for accessing the server.
Ibm Imm Activation Key 743
However, some features of the IMM require an activation key to be installed. These features include:
Remote presence (graphics, keyboard and mouse redirection)
Blue-screen capture
Ability to mount remote media files (ISO and diskette images) as virtual devices
Support for the remote KVM switch
The activation key is a 25-character alphanumeric code that can be obtained from the IBM Features on Demand (FoD) website. The FoD website allows customers to generate or return license keys for IBM products. To access the FoD website, customers need to have an IBM ID and password, as well as the machine type and serial number of the server.
The following steps describe how to generate the activation key for the IMM feature "Integrated Management Module Advanced Upgrade" using the FoD website:
Visit the IBM Features on Demand website
Login if you already have an access or Sign up
Choose the "Retrieve history" option
Choose "Search history via machine type serial number" as the search type and specify the MT/SN without any spaces in the search value. The machine type should be 4 digits and the serial number should be 7 alphanumeric. Please don't mix up the Qradar appliance type and serial number with the actual x-series MT/SN.
Once values are entered hit continue, and a list of license keys that were installed should appear.
The FOD key we're looking for is "Integrated Management Module Advanced Upgrade" which you can mark and choose to download.
The file would be a .key and would typically contain the MT/SN in the file name.
The following steps describe how to install the activation key on the IMM using the web interface:
Log on to the IMM user interface
Choose IMM Management > Activation Key Management
A list of keys that are currently installed on the machine will show up
Choose Add.. and browse for the FOD key file
You will get a message indicating that the file has been added successfully
After adding the file, you may considering rebooting the IMM to ensure changes are pushed
Choose IMM Management > Restart IMM
The IMM will take 3-5 mins until it's restarted during this time the web UI is inaccessible.
After installing the activation key, you can enjoy the advanced features of the IMM such as remote control, virtual media, and blue-screen capture. For more information about the IMM and its features, please refer to [the IBM Support page].
