Shut Down Register
This write−only register, which is accessible via the index address 0x05, allows to pull
down the FRU_EN signal to GND and thus initiate a blade power−down.
a
This register was introduced because the FRU_EN signal is under normal operation
controlled by the IPMC. If the IPMC however is is not operating anymore, for example
during a firmware upgrade, the FRU_EN signal is released and remains in the state it
previously had been in. In this case it may be necessary to explicitly pull down FRU_EN
via this register.
