Dell, HP, Intel and NEC to Further Standardize and Enhance Server Management

Wednesday February 18, 2004 23:30:56

INTEL DEVELOPER FORUM, SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 18, 2004 --Dell, HP, Intel Corporation and NEC Corporation today announced version 2.0 of the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) specification, which will continue to improve server management and help reduce costs.

IPMI helps lower the overall costs of server management by enabling customers to save time, maximize IT resources and potentially manage multi-vendor environments in the same way. The current specification defines common interfaces that allow IT managers to receive status alerts, send instructions to industry-standard servers and run diagnostics over a network versus locally at the server.

IPMI 2.0 is designed to extend customers' IT capabilities and further improve remote management by introducing enhanced security, remote access and configuration capabilities, while maintaining compatibility with previous IPMI versions. The next-generation IPMI also offers customers more cost-effective implementation options, which can provide greater flexibility and lower the cost of server deployment. Additional features of the new specification include:

-- New authentication and encryption algorithms - enhances security for remote management access

-- "Serial Over LAN" - supports remote interaction with serial-based applications, BIOS and operating system

-- SMBus System Interface - provides low-pin count connection for low-cost management controllers

-- Firmware Firewall - supports partitioning and protection of management between blades in modular system implementations

-- IPMI "Payloads" - provides infrastructure for Serial Over LAN and OEM value-added redirection capabilities

-- New User Login and configuration options - enable user access-rights and security configuration capabilities to be tailored to the needs of the user's facility

The IPMI 2.0 specification is available now at http://developer.intel.com/design/servers/ipmi/.

Broad Industry Adoption

Adoption of the IPMI standard continues to expand with more than 160 companies across the industry now supporting IPMI as a server management standard. A complete list of IPMI adopters can be seen at http://developer.intel.com/design/servers/ipmi/adopterlist.htm.

"IPMI 2.0 is a critical technology that will enable customers to more easily manage multi-vendor server environments with standardized tools and processes--lowering costs and maximizing IT resources," said Neil Hand, director of worldwide marketing in Dell's Enterprise Product Group. "Dell is committed to leading efforts to standardize key systems management technologies, like IPMI, that deliver better value for customers as they build scalable enterprises."

"HP is committed to industry standards as part of its Adaptive Enterprise strategy," said Paul Santeler, vice president, solutions and velocity software business, HP. "HP Integrity systems use IPMI for a foundation of basic enterprise manageability upon which HP adds usability, security and serviceability features for our customers with heterogeneous environments."

"The accelerating adoption of IPMI reflects the industry's commitment to standards-based computing," said Abhi Talwalkar, vice president of Intel's Enterprise Platforms Group, and general manager, Platform Products Group. "Manageability of Intel(R) Xeon(TM) and Intel(R) Itanium(R) based server platforms will be enhanced by IPMI 2.0 for better security and remote server control."

"NEC has been shipping IPMI-compliant servers since 1999 because IPMI provides platform independent open manageability with which the common server management software can work," said Kazuhiko Maekawa, general manger, Client and Server Division, NEC. "IPMI 2.0 will accelerate the adoption of IPMI to become a management standard with its enhanced manageability and interoperability features for servers, including modular blade servers."
