Intel® Server Board S2600CP Functional Architecture Intel
®
Server Board S2600CP and Server System P4000CP TPS
Revision 1.8
Intel order number G26942-005
44
(SMBus*) Specification, Version 2.0): Quick Command, Send Byte, Receive Byte, Write
Byte/Word, Read Byte/Word, Process Call, Block Read/Write, and Host Notify.
The C602 chipset’s SMBus* also implements hardware-based Packet Error Checking for data
robustness and the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) to dynamically provide address to all
SMBus* devices.
4.3.18 Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (Intel
®
VT-d)
The Intel
®
C602 chipset provides hardware support for implementation of Intel
®
Virtualization
Technology with Directed I/O (Intel
®
VT-d). Intel
®
VT-d consists of technology components that
support the virtualization of platforms based on Intel
®
Architecture Processors. Intel
®
VT-d
Technology enables multiple operating systems and applications to run in independent
partitions. A partition behaves like a virtual machine (VM) and provides isolation and protection
across partitions. Each partition is allocated its own subset of host physical memory.
4.3.19 KVM/Serial Over LAN (SOL) Function
These functions support redirection of keyboard, mouse, and text screen to a terminal window
on a remote console. The keyboard, mouse, and text redirection enables the control of the client
machine through the network. Text, mouse, and keyboard redirection allows the remote
machine to control and configure the client by entering BIOS setup. The KVM/SOL function
emulates a standard PCI serial port and redirects the data from the serial port to the
management console using LAN. KVM has additional requirements of internal graphics and
SOL may be used when KVM is not supported.
4.3.20 On-board SAS/SATA Support and Options
The Intel
®
C602 chipset on Intel
®
Server Board S2600CP2/S2600CP4 provides storage support
by two integrated controllers: AHCI and SCU. By default the server board will support up to 10
SATA ports: Two white 6Gb/s SATA ports and four black 3Gb/s SATA ports routed from the
AHCI controller labeled as “SATA_0” through “SATA_5” and eight blue 3Gb/s SATA/SAS ports
routed from the SCU controller labeled as “SAS_0” through “SAS_7”. On Intel
®
Server Board
S2600CP2J, only six SATA ports from ACHI controller are available.
Note: The four blue ports from SCU labeled as “SAS_4”~”SAS_7” are NOT functional by default
and is only enabled with the addition of an Intel
®
RAID C600 Upgrade Key option supporting
eight SAS/SATA ports.
The server board is capable of supporting additional chipset embedded SAS and RAID options
from the SCU controller when configured with one of several available Intel
®
RAID C600
Upgrade Keys. Upgrade keys install onto a 4-pin connector on the server board labeled as
“Storage Upgrade key”. The following table identifies available upgrade key options and their
supported features. The Intel
®
RAID C600 Upgrade Keys do NOT work on Intel
®
Server Board
S2600CP2J.
