Hardware Management Overview—MPCBL0010 SBC
The MPCBL0010 SBC also has a second "dead time" (45 seconds) used to avoid PCI -
Express hot plug signaling during the operating system load. This delay is applied from
the time the SBC goes to M4 state. There is no hot plug "attention button" during that
delay. The IPMC asserts the "attention button" only after the delay to notify the
operating system that a new device is ready to power.

10.10.1 Pre-Defined Resources for AdvancedMC Modules

In order to support AdvancedMC hot add, the SBC has to reserve resources that are not
being used by a device when the SBC is booted. It is not possible for the SBC to know
exactly what resources an AdvancedMC module that is hot-added may require before it
is inserted. If the resources reserved by the SBC for the AdvancedMC module are
adequate, then the AdvancedMC hot add will be successful. If an AdvancedMC module
needs more resources (memory, IRQs, etc) than the SBC has reserved, then the
AdvancedMC module will not work properly until the SBC is rebooted. If the hot-added
AdvancedMC module does not use all of the resources that are reserved by the SBC,
the reserved resources are left unused and cannot be used by any other component
because they are still reserved.
For each AdvancedMC module slot, the following resources are reserved:
•8 PCI buses
•IO: 8K
Memory: 4000000h ;(64MB)
Pre-fetch Memory: 8000000h ;(128MB)advanced
10.11 Temperature and Voltage Sensors
Temperature and voltage sensors are monitored by the MPCBL0010 SBC. These sensors
are used to ensure that the MPCBL0010 SBC is operating at its pre-defined threshold
limits. The sensors are categorized as follows:
Lower Non-Critical
Lower Critical
Upper Non-Critical
Upper Critical
If the lower critical or upper critical threshold is exceeded, it raises a major alarm. If
the lower non-critical or upper non-critical threshold is exceeded, it raises a minor
alarm.
Only critical thresholds which are exceeded turn on the solid red LED. However, for any
events above, the IPMC forwards the events to the AdvancedTCA shelf manager to log
into the SEL.
Table123 lists the sensor numbers, normal values, and thresholds for all voltage and
temperature sensors.
