4 Intelligent Platform Management System
The purpose of the intelligent platform management system is to monitor, control, and assure
proper operation of AdvancedTCA® Boards and other Shelf components. The intelligent
platform management system watches over the basic health of the system, reports anomalies,
and takes corrective action when needed. The intelligent platform management system can
retrieve inventory information and sensor readings as well as receive event reports and failure
notifications from Boards and other Intelligent FRUs. The intelligent platform management
system can also perform basic recovery operations such as reset of managed entities.
The IPMC controller on aTCA-9710 supports an “intelligent” hardware management system,
based on the Intelligent Platform Management Interface Specification. The intelligent
management system provides the ability to manage the power, cooling, and interconnect
needs of intelligent devices; to monitor events; and to log events to a central repository.
4.1 IPMI Sensors
The following table lists all the sensors supported by the aTCA-9710. Six thresholds including
Lower Non-Recoverable (LNR), Lower Critical (LC), Lower Non-Critical (LNC), Upper Non-
Critical (UNC), Upper Critical (UC) and Upper Non-Critical (UNR) are defined for each voltage
or temperature sensor.
