Management Processor Monitor: Monitor Command

ATCA-9305 (1.0) => setenv ethport eTSEC1

Optionally, save your settings:

ATCA-9305 (1.0) => saveenv

TFTP the new monitor (binary) image to memory location 0x100000:

ATCA-9305 (1.0) => tftpboot 100000 path_to_file_on_tftp_server

Update the monitor:

ATCA-9305 (1.0) => moninit serial_number 100000

If moninit( ) fails, burn the new monitor to a ROM and follow the recovery steps in the “Recovering the Monitor” section.

MONITOR COMMAND REFERENCE

This section describes the syntax and typographic conventions for the ATCA-9305 monitor commands. Subsequent sections in this chapter describe individual commands, which fall into the following categories: boot, memory, flash, environment variables, test, and other commands.

Command Syntax

The monitor uses the following basic command syntax:

<Command> <argument 1> <argument 2> <argument 3>

•The command line accepts three different argument formats: string, numeric, and symbolic. All command arguments must be separated by spaces with the exception of argument flags, which are described below.

•Monitor commands that expect numeric arguments assume a hexadecimal base.

•All monitor commands are case sensitive.

•Some commands accept flag arguments. A flag argument is a single character that begins with a period (.). There is no white space between an argument flag and a command. For example, md.b 80000 is a valid monitor command, while md .b 80000 is not.

•Some commands may be abbreviated by typing only the first few characters that uniquely identify the command. For example, you can type h instead of help. However, commands cannot be abbreviated when accessing online help. You must type help and the full command name.

ATCA-9305 specifications

The Emerson ATCA-9305 is a high-performance AdvancedTCA (ATCA) chassis designed to meet the demanding requirements of telecommunications and IT infrastructure. With a focus on scalability, reliability, and flexibility, this equipment is ideal for service providers and enterprises looking to deploy robust applications in a variety of environments.

One of the main features of the ATCA-9305 is its support for high-density blade configurations. The chassis can accommodate up to 14 ATCA blades, enabling the deployment of powerful processing units, communication modules, and storage solutions. This level of density not only maximizes space but also minimizes power consumption, which is crucial for reducing operational costs in large-scale deployments.

The ATCA-9305 is built with a focus on advanced thermal management and redundancy. It employs a sophisticated cooling architecture that ensures optimal airflow across the chassis, preventing overheating during operation. Additionally, the chassis features hot-swappable fans and power supplies, which means that components can be replaced without interrupting the overall system performance. This capability enhances uptime and reliability, which is essential for mission-critical applications.

Another notable characteristic of the ATCA-9305 is its support for various interconnect technologies. The chassis provides robust backplane options that facilitate high-bandwidth communication between blades. It supports Ethernet, PCI Express, and Serial RapidIO, allowing for seamless integration with existing infrastructure and future technologies. This flexibility enables organizations to adapt to changing market demands and technological advancements.

Security features are also a prominent aspect of the ATCA-9305. The chassis incorporates hardware-based security modules that enhance data integrity and protect sensitive information. This is particularly important for service providers who must adhere to strict regulatory compliance standards.

In terms of management and monitoring, the ATCA-9305 is equipped with advanced management capabilities. It supports AdvancedTCA Management Interface (IPMI) and other monitoring protocols, allowing administrators to easily oversee the health and performance of the entire system. This level of visibility aids in proactive maintenance and troubleshooting, effectively reducing downtime.

In conclusion, the Emerson ATCA-9305 is a powerful and versatile chassis that stands out due to its high-density configuration, advanced thermal management, diverse interconnect technology support, robust security features, and comprehensive management capabilities. Its design is tailored for the evolving needs of telecommunications and data center environments, making it a valuable asset for any organization looking to enhance its infrastructure.
