4.4.1HPI Controls for Domain and Shelf Management

This refers to the Domain Management Resource and Shelf Management Resource which were previously explained. Both are Emerson-specific extensions. See Working with the Multishelf Library on page 24.

4.4.2IPMI System Boot Options Support

A FRU may have a payload which is capable of booting an operating system (OS). Usually, a boot firmware, such as BIOS or U-Boot, is started after the payload is powered up or reset. Via the System Boot Options Control you can set some options for the boot firmware. The boot firmware will read these settings from the IPMC.

In order to set or get the system boot options, you need to use the HPI Boot Option control.

This control maps the IPMI commands Set System Boot Options and Get System Boot Options to HPI.

The Boot Option Control is only available for AdvancedTCA front blades and the shelf manager if the respective IPMC supports the Set System Boot Option IPMI command. Refer to the Intelligent Platform Management Interface Specification v2.0, section 28.12 Set System Boot Options Command and 28.13 Get System Boot Options Command, for further details. Furthermore refer to the respective IPMI Programmer’s Reference manuals of the respective blades.
