8.2.1

Set/Get Power Level

The blade supports two power levels. In case of a shelf which only allows 200W per slot the P-
States of the blade will be restricted to match this requirement. The second power level has no
restrictions.

Chapter 4, BIOS, on page 89

8.3

Artesyn Embedded Technologies Specific

Commands

The Artesyn Embedded Technologies IPMC supports several commands which are not defined
in the IPMI or PICMG 3.0 specification but are introduced by Artesyn Embedded Technologies:
serial output commands.

The firmware upgrade commands supported by the blade are implemented according to
the PICMG HPM.1 Revision 1.0 specification.

The boot block can be updated with PICMG HPM.1 specific commands.

Before sending any of these commands, the shelf management software must check
whether the receiving IPMI controller supports Artesyn Embedded Technologies specific
IPMI commands by using the IPMI command 'Get Device ID'. Sending Artesyn Embedded
Technologies specific commands to IPMI controllers which do not support these IPMI
commands will lead to no or undefined results.

Proper handling of these commands is required to write a portable application.
