The Standby MM Firmware Update Status section displays the status of the firmware update, versions of the firmware images, percent complete, and estimated time to complete the update of the standby management-module firmware.

Note: The BladeCenter S unit does not support a second (standby) management module; therefore, this category is not on the management-module user interface for the BladeCenter S unit.

The MM Connectivity Status section displays the status of connections between the management modules and other BladeCenter components. The status of connections with the primary management module is periodically updated. If a standby management module is installed, its connection status shows the data that was collected the last time the management module was the primary management module; if the management module never acted as primary, no status data is available for it. The Last Update field shows when the status information for each management module was collected.

Note: The BladeCenter S unit version of the advanced management module also displays connectivity information for the storage modules.

The MM Built-in Self Test (BIST) Results section displays BIST results for the management modules. The test results for both the primary and standby management modules are kept updated. The Last Update field shows when the test results for each management module were collected.
