Manage an ONTAP node remotely using the SP/BMC

Contributors netapp-sumathi netapp-bhouser netapp-aherbin

You can manage a node remotely using an onboard controller, called a Service Processor (SP) or Baseboard Management Controller (BMC). This remote management controller is included in all current platform models. The controller stays operational regardless of the operating state of the node.

For a full breakdown of platform SP and BMC support, refer to the Support Matrix on the NetApp Support site.
