Using HPI-B POST Type Control

4.4.3POST Type Control

This HPI control allows you to set/get the Power-On Self Test (POST) type of the blade. Two POST types are configurable: long POST and short POST. Refer to the respective hardware user manual of the blade for details about both POST types. The definition of the respective HPI controls is given in the following tables.

Table 4-13 POST Type HPI Control RDR

SaHpiRdrT	Value	Notes
RecordId	Assigned by HPI implementation	Unique identifier for the

RdrType	SAHPI_CTRL_RDR
RdrTypeUnion.CtrlRec.Num	MOTHPI_CTRL_NUM_POSTTYPE
RdrTypeUnion.CtrlRec.OutputT	SAHPI_CTRL_OEM	Indicates that this control

4.4.4HPI Logging Support

The actions taken by the HPI daemon are written to a log file. The path and name of the log file is defined in the configuration file bbs-hpib.conf.

To control what kind of information is written to the log file, the log control can be used.
