Intel NetStructure® MPCBL0001 High Performance Single Board Computer Contents 3.10.2 Error Reporting The MCH handles error reporting from the memory subsystem. Errors consist of correctable and uncorrectable bit errors. The ECC algorithms used are capable of correcting any number of bit errors contained within a 4-bit nibble. In addition, any number of bit errors contained within two 4bit nibbles is detected. The MCH communicates these errors to the ICH3 via special cycles over the hub link interface.
Intel NetStructure® MPCBL0001 High Performance Single Board Computer Contents 3.11 ACPI ACPI gives the operating system direct control over the power management and Plug and Play functions of a computer. The use of ACPI with theMPCBL0001 SBC requires an operating system that provides ACPI support. ACPI features include: • Plug and Play (including bus and device enumeration) and APM support (normally contained in the BIOS).
Intel NetStructure® MPCBL0001 High Performance Single Board Computer Contents 3.12.1 Reset Logic The following topics describe the two types of reset requests and the boot relationships among them. The two types of reset requests available on the MPCBL0001 are: • Hard reset request (always results in a cold boot) • Soft reset request (can result in either a warm or cold boot) A hard reset request occurs whenever the processor Reset line is asserted and then deasserted.
Intel NetStructure® MPCBL0001 High Performance Single Board Computer Contents 1. The reset button is pressed (see Note below). See Figure 14, “MPCBL0001NXX SBC Front Panel” on page 81 for its location. 2. A processor shutdown special cycle occurred. 3. An INIT command from Port 92h I/O register (refer to the Intel® 82801CA I/O Controller Hub 3 (ICH3-S) Datasheet for information about this register). 4. An INIT command from Port CF9h I/O register. 5. A keyboard reset command (ICH3 RCIN# signal asserted). 6.
Intel NetStructure® MPCBL0001 High Performance Single Board Computer Contents 3.12.5 Cold Boot Any soft reset that does not meet the configuration described in the preceding Warm Boot section is classified as a cold boot. Execution starts at the reset vector, and BIOS initializes and configures all devices, including memory subsystem, as if a hard reset had occurred. See Table 25, “Reset Actions” on page 61.
Intel NetStructure® MPCBL0001 High Performance Single Board Computer Contents As the many voltages power up, each regulator produces a “power good” signal. All of these power good signals are logically OR’d (with the exception of the VRM power good) to produce the ICH3_PWROK signal input to the ICH3 as shown in Figure 8, Power Good Map. When this signal is active, it indicates all on-board power is good.

The Set Serial Buffer Configuration command can enable/disable both filtering and buffering.
Intel NetStructure® MPCBL0001 High Performance Single Board Computer Contents There is an Intel-specific command to read back the buffer data in chunks of 16 bytes. This command requires a 16 bit offset into the buffer from which to read. System software can invoke this command several times in order to read the entire buffer. A buffer offset of 0 refers to the start of the oldest data in the buffer and not necessarily the physical start of the buffer.

Serial Over Lan (SOL) Serial Over Lan (SOL) 11 Serial over LAN (SOL) is a packet format and protocol defined in the IPMI v2.0 specification for transmitting serial port data over Ethernet using IPMI over LAN (RMCP+) messages. This twoway redirection of a blade’s serial port data over Ethernet is independent of the operating system or any applications executing on it. The BIOS also supports redirection of its console over serial port, which can be redirected over the network for remote access.
Serial Over Lan (SOL) Figure 29 is a block diagram of the SOL implementation on the blade: Figure 29. SOL Block Diagram This architecture requires the following three components to perform Serial over LAN operations. 1. SOL capable firmware executing on the Intelligent Platform Management Controller (IPMC). The IPMC also provides a dedicated SMBus connection to base interface Ethernet controller.
Serial Over Lan (SOL) transformation of serial data to and from network packets, and the transmission and reception of SOL network packets through the Ethernet controller TCO port. 11.2.1 Architectural Components 11.2.1.1 IPMC As shown in the block diagram in Figure 29, the IPMI controller on the blade provides a UART interface to the blade’s serial port (COM2).
Serial Over Lan (SOL) From the table above, the serial over LAN can only be activated if a user configures the BIOS correctly. By default, the console redirection setting is enabled and the SOL support is set to “Disabled”. If a user has a serial session active via the front panel and a user initiates a SOL session on this blade, the serial data on the front panel will be deactivated automatically. The serial data will be sent via the LAN interface to the SOL client system.
Serial Over Lan (SOL) The maximum baud rate supported by the IPMC for SOL is 115.2 kbps. There will be a minimal improvement between the baud rate of 19.2kbps to 115.2kbps. This is due to a combination of all the software overhead of creating/breaking down IP packets in the IPMC as well as a slower link between the IPMC and the NIC (I2C). If a user configures the SOL configuration without modifying the reference_cfg file, the default baud rate is 9.6 kbps. Note: 11.4 The BIOS default baud rate is 9.
Serial Over Lan (SOL) 11.5 Supported Usage Model Customers are expected to use Serial Over LAN to accomplish the following: • BIOS console redirection • As a remote terminal for OS setup and viewing text console output The ipmitool utility runs on a remote network node and communicates over the LAN interface. The remote node and the target SBC may be on the same subnet or on different subnets. The reference script can be run on the remote node. Figure 30.
Serial Over Lan (SOL) 11.6 Installation and Configuration 11.6.1 SOL Configuration Reference Script (reference_cfg) The reference script can run with no special setup. The script uses built-in bash commands as well as grep and awk. The environment in which the script runs must have bash installed at /bin/bash (or a symbolic link at that location), and must include grep and awk in the path.
Serial Over Lan (SOL) HostIP = IP address of the ethernet interface on the IPMC (MPCBL0001 blade) that has been configured for SOL access. UserName = User name of an authorized SOL client user. The configuration helper “reference_cfg” creates such a client with UserName = solusername. Password = Password assigned for ‘UserName’. The configuration helper “reference_cfg” assigns Password = soluserpassword for UserName = solusername.
Serial Over Lan (SOL) 11.7.2 SOL User Information Intel’s SBCs implement four different users, User1 through User4. User1 has null username which is not editable. The script configures User2. User2 is enabled and specifically enabled for SOL payloads. The user name is “solusername”, zero-padded to a length of 16 bytes as per the IPMI specification. The password is “soluserpassword”, zero-padded to 20 bytes as per the IPMI 2.0 extension. 11.7.
Serial Over Lan (SOL) IP and MAC addresses supplied to the IPMC are specified on the command line as specified in Table 104. IP source is set to “static” and the subnet mask is set for a class C subnet. The Gateway IP and MAC address should be specified in the command to enable RMCP communication across subnets. If the IP or MAC address options are missing from the command line, those parameters will not be changed on the IPMC. If VLAN (802.
Serial Over Lan (SOL) 11.7.7 Executing the SOL Client (ipmitool) To start a SOL console, a user must first connect with the command: ipmitool -I lanplus -L operator -H -U -P sol activate The first argument given in this command line is the host name or IP address of the system on which ipmitool is running. The next two arguments are the SOL configured username and password on the SBC.
