Management Module) also called IBM RSA that IP

open webpage. It is painful in the situation when you want to perform reboot,
any firmware upgrade, to check server os status from remote location, To sort
out you need to reset (restart) IBM IMM not server.
follow below steps to reset IBM.

will demostrate with Microsoft command prompt)

IMM name is IMM-, not IMM_
If you install the ASU tools - downloadble from the IBM site- for your Linux or windows OS, you can reset the IMM directly from within your OS.

Yes I am aware of ASU utility, Asu is also able to restart IMM remotely, but I find telnet is very simple.
You will need ASU utility from IBM.
Asu rebootimm --host “IMM ipaddress” --user “username” --password “password”
If we executw resetimm, will the os be getting reboot also?
