The Intel

®

Xeon

®

Processor E5 4600/2600/2400/1600 Product Families BMC supports limited manageability of the Intel

®

Xeon Phi

Coprocessor adapter as described in this section. The Intel

®

Xeon Phi

Coprocessor adapter uses the Many Integrated Core (MIC)

architecture and the sensors are referred to as MIC sensors.

For each manageable Intel

®

Xeon Phi

Coprocessor adapter found in the system, the BMC automatically enables the associated

thermal margin sensors (0xC4-0xC7) and status sensors (0xA2, 0xA3, 0xA6, 0xA7).

11.9.1

Intel

®

Xeon Phi

Coprocessor (MIC) Thermal Margin Sensors

The management controller FW of the Intel

®

Xeon Phi

Coprocessor adapter provides an IPMI sensor that is read to get the

temperature data. The BMC then instantiates its own version of this sensor, which is used for fan speed control.

The thermal margin sensor is the difference between the Core Temp sensor value and the TControl value reported by the Intel

®

Xeon

Phi

Coprocessor adapter.

This sensor will not log events into the SEL.

11.9.2

Intel

®

Xeon Phi

Coprocessor (MIC) Status Sensors

Every time DC power is turned on, the BMC checks for Intel

®

Xeon Phi

Coprocessor adapters installed in the system. All compatible

cards will be enabled for management. The status sensor is a direct copy of the status sensor reported by the Intel

®

Xeon Phi

Coprocessor adapter.
