AT8402 Hardware Description AMC GbE Channels Channels 0 and 1 of each AMC are connected to the Ethernet Switch. The Ethernet Switch supports 1000BASE-BX Gigabit Ethernet. AMC SAS/SATA Channels 2 and 3 of the AMC slots are reserved for SAS. All four AMC are connected to the SAS Expander. Additionally, a direct SATA interconnect between B1 and B3 is configurable, as well as between B2 and B4 (see section 3.1.3.3). AMC PCI Express Bays B1 and B3 implement a x4 PCIe connection on channels 4 to 7.
AT8402 Hardware Description The FUM is responsible for field upgrades, rollbacks and watchdog functions of the IPM controller. Four SPI compatible memory devices are connected to the FUM which build up two IPMI firmware banks with 512 Kbyte each. One bank contains a copy of the current IPMC code.

AT8402 Software Description 4.3.1 Power on self Test 4.3.1.1 Test Routines Upon power on or system reset, the bootloader performs a set of Power On Self Tests (POST) to check the integrity of specific components. Components where a POST is available are: • SDRAM • PPC405 serial line • PPC405 I2C • PPC405 FE In the case that a POST fails, a POST error code is written into the postcode high byte register of the onboard CPLD.
AT8402 Software Description A list of defined postcodes is shown in the table below.
AT8402 4.4 Software Description IPMI Firmware The PPC communicates with the Intelligent Management Controller (IPMC) using the Keyboard Controller Style (KCS) interface. The bootloader is able to communicate with the IPMC, e.g. for POST error logging purposes and fault resilient purposes. The memory subsystem of the IPMC consists of an integrated flash memory to hold the IPMC operation code and integrated RAM for data.
AT8402 Software Description The AT8402 management controller supports sensor devices and uses the IPMI dynamic sensor population feature of IPMI v1.5 to merge the AMC hot swap sensor with the AT8402 sensors population. AMC hot swap events indicated by this sensor are passed to the ShMC. Additionally, the IPMC updates the sensor population change indicator timestamp accessible through the Get Device SDR Info command to remain compliant to IPMI v1.5. All SDRs can be queried using Device SDR commands.

AT8402 4.4.1.1 Software Description IPMB Link Sensor The AT8402 provides two IPMB links to increase communication reliability to the shelf manager and other IPM devices on the IPMB. These IPMB links work together for increased throughput where both busses are actively used for communication at any time. A request might be received over IPMB Bus A, and the response is sent over IPMB Bus B. Any requests that time out are retried on the redundant IPMB bus.
AT8402 4.4.3 Software Description E-Keying E-Keying has been defined in the PICMG 3.0 Specification to prevent board damage, prevent misoperation, and verify fabric compatibility. The FRU data contains the board point-to-point connectivity record as described in Section 3.7.2.3 of the PICMG 3.0 specification.
AT8402 4.4.5.2 Software Description Out-Of-Service (OOS) LED (ATCA LED1) Red LED Table 4-5: OOS LED state LED state ON Description 1) The bootup handshake between FUM and IPMC is not finished or failed 2) The firmware update is in progress and the new IPMC firmware image is copied to the FUM 3) power denied from ShMgr Blinking The FUM is programming the IPMC due to a firmware update or a rollback OFF The IPMC is operational 4.4.5.
AT8402 Software Description If the Carrier Board reaches the M6 state, either through an extraction request through the lower ejector handle or a direct command from higher-level software. The Hot Swap LED continues to flash during this preparation time, just like it does in M5 state. When payload power is successfully turned off, the Hot Swap LED remains lit, indicating it is safe to remove the AT8402 from the chassis. 4.
AT8402 4.5.1 Software Description Startup Configurations A startup configuration is a combination of an initrd and a configuration file for the base switch. The IPMC image is not part of the configuration and is updated separately. Several configurations (up to 99) can be defined but only one is active at a time. To display the currently available startup configurations, the CLI command ‘show’ is used. (AT8402 Base Fabric) #show startupconfig startup ACT NR INITRD --- -- -----------01 A ALPHA 6.
AT8402 Software Description The startup configuration created before can be deleted by entering exactly the same command string preceeded by ‘no’: (AT8402 Base Fabric) (Config)#no startupslot 3 config 2 initrd A The ‘show’ command can also be used to display available versions of initrd. The syntax is: show startupconfig initrd The configuration mode is also used to activate one of the available startup configurations.
AT8402 Software Description A software release for the AT8402 consists of one software package, initrd. The package is a tar archive containing an image of the software and a MD5 checksum file for consistency check. The name of the package file is arbitrary but the file names in the archive must not be altered. When performing a firmware update, the software packages are loaded from a remote TFTP server in the first step.
AT8402 Software Description To restart the board with the new startup configuration, the CLI command ‘reload’ is used: (AT8402 Base Fabric) (Config)#reload If the new startup configuration is considered functional after the reboot, it must be activated permanently, or else the one that is still active will be used again: (AT8402 Base Fabric) (Config)#startupslot 3 activate 4.5.3 Updating bootloader The process of updating the bootloader is similar to updating the initrd.
