Chapter 3 IPMI
3.4 BMC Reset
The BMC can initiate a graceful shutdown of the MIC-3392 by issuing a short pulse
(~500 ms) on the power button signal to the ACPI controller when commanded
through its host, OOB, or IPMB channels as well as from a Graceful Shutdown Event
from the CMM or a Handle OPEN event. An ACPI compliant OS will then perform a
graceful shutdown and light the blue LED whereas a non-compliant OS will just shut
down.
Note! The Network function (NetFn) field identifies the functional class of the
message. The Network Function clusters IPMI commands into different
sets. Please refer to the IPMI specification of network function codes for
more information.
These command codes are compliant with the IPMI specification.
Mandatory and Optional commands are defined in the IPMI specifica-
tion. For more details, please refer to the IPMI specification.
