10.1.3 IPMI Interface
The IPMI interface is an important element of the RSS system architecture. It is used extensively
for system management and inter-chassis communications:
•Access
•Configure
•System management
•Fault configuration and managem ent
•Isolation strategies
•Inter-host communications
The IPMI interface exercises the following IPMI API, fault configuration and system management
functions:
Get Temperature Sensor Status/Thresholds - Gets the temperature sensor status and readings.
Set Temperature Sensor Status/Thresholds - Sets the temperature sensor status and thresholds.
Get Voltage Sensor Status/Thresholds - Gets the voltage sensor status and readings.
Set Voltage Sensor Status/Thresholds - Sets the voltage sensor status and thresholds.
10.1.3.1 Fault Configuration
The RHDemo performs the following fault configuration activities:
•Upper/Lower non-critical threshold
•Upper/Lower critical threshold
•Upper/Lower non-recoverable threshold
10.1.3.2 Isolation Strategy
The RHDemo executes one of the following isolation strategies, depending on the occurring event:
•Alert
•Power Off
•Reset
•Power Cycle
•OEM Action
•Diagnostic Interrupt (NMI)
