The MegaRAC from American Megatrends is a product line of Service Processors providing complete Out-of-band, or Lights-out remote management of computer systems independently of the Operating System status or location to troubleshoot computers and assure continuity of service. MegaRAC Service Processors come in various formats - PCI cards, embedded modules and software-only. HistoryThe MegaRAC remote management controller was introduced in 1998 for Dell, that later developed the DRAC. The second generation card, MegaRACG2 (2002), provided console, KVM graphical redirection, firewall, and battery backup. MegaRAC SP FirmwareThe MegaRAC SP firmware is composed of four major functionality groups: - Complete IPMI 2.0 implementation, providing sensor and health monitoring, alerting, event logging Serial over LAN, et cetera.
