4.3.3 Discrete sensors
4.3.3.1 IPMC Device Locator
Each IPMC provides a PICMG compliant FRU device locator for the subsystem. This
record is used to hold location and type information of the IPMC.
4.3.3.2 Mezzanine Module Device Locator
The FRU device locator for each Add-In card is also placed in the front board sensor
data repository.
4.3.3.3 FRU Hotswap Sensor (Front blade)
Each IPMC contains a PICMG compliant Hot Swap sensor inside it’s sensor data
repository.
4.3.3.4 Version Change Sensor
A Version Change sensor is supported according to the IPMI specification.
4.3.3.5 BMC Watchdog Sensor
The BMC Watchdog sensor is supported according to the Watchdog 2 sensor type
listed in the IPMI specification.
4.3.3.6 FW Progress Sensor
The IPMC SDR contains a FW Progress sensor in order to support logging of the OS
boot process. The IPMC supports adding and forwarding of SEL entries from the
BIOS/OS system firmware progress events by sending ‘Add sel entry’ commands with
the matching sensor type to the IPMC through the KCS interface.
4.3.3.7 Therm Trip Sensor
The IPMC contains a sensor to monitor the CPU Therm Trip state through the FPGA
on each subsystem. The sensor is implemented as a discrete OEM sensor. The
single bits can be seen in following table.
