The IPMC implements many standard IPMI commands. For example, software can use the
watchdog timer commands to monitor the system’s health. Normally, the software resets the
watchdog timer periodically to prevent it from expiring. The IPMI specification allows for
different actions such as reset, power off, and power cycle, to occur if the timer expires. The
watchdog’s ‘timer use’ fields can keep track of which software (Operating System, System
Management, etc.) started the timer. Also, the time-out action and ‘timer use’ information can
be logged automatically to the System Event Log (SEL) when the time-out occurs. Refer to the
IPMI specification (listed in

Table A-2

) for details about each command’s request and response

data. The IPMC also implements ATCA commands, see the ATCA Base Specification (PICMG
3.0).
