4.9 IPMI Support
The ATCA-7470 BIOS provides the following IPMI support:
 Sets initial timestamp for IPMI SEL events.
 Sends a Boot Initiated event
 Sends Memory DIMM detect and error events
 Sends RTS detect and error events
 Sends system firmware progress events
 Reads out the IPMC version of the main board and the RTM
 Reads the FRU information of the main board, the Acceleration module and the RTM.
 Logs boot error in case of no boot device found
 Reads the IPMI GUID and fills in the DMI structure 1 UUID.
 Show SEL and Sensor Values in BIOS setup
BIOS creates the DMI structure type 38 to provide IPMI host interface information to the OS.
BIOS reads and creates the IPMI boot parameter, which are stored in the IPMC. The list of the
supported IPMI boot parameter is described in
Table 9-15 on page 218 .
4.10 Watchdog Support
BIOS uses the IPMI payload watchdog for two phases:
 BIOS phase
 Operation System boot phase
The IPMC starts automatically the IPMI payload watchdog after the payload board comes out
of reset. In this case the FRB2 flag of the IPMI watchdog is set.
