Page 51
Hardware Preparation and Installation
The blade provides two independent power inputs according to the AdvancedTCA Specification. Each input has to be equipped with an additional fuse of max. 90 A located either in the shelf where the blade is installed or the power entry module (PEM).
The power consumption has been measured using specific boards in a configuration considered to represent the worst-case (with RTM-ATCA-7360 and SAS HDD, maximum memory population, ATCA-7470-ACCEL-MOD module, ATCA-MO297 SSD module) and with software simultaneously exercising as many functions and interfaces as possible. This includes a particular load software provided by Intel designed to stress the processors to reach their theoretical maximum power specification.
Any difference in the system configuration or the software executed by the processors may affect the actual power dissipation. Depending on the actual operating configuration and conditions, customers may see slightly higher power dissipation, or it may even be significantly lower. There is also a dependency on the batch variance of the major components like the processor and DIMMs used. Hence, Artesyn does not represent or warrant that measurement results of a specific board provide guaranteed maximum values for a series of boards.

3.1.3.3 Serial Interface Connector
Controls, Indicators, and Connectors
The blade provides one RS-232 serial interface connector at its face plate. It is of type RJ-45 and corresponds to the physical serial interface port 1. By default, the BIOS maps this interface to the serial interface COM1. The on-board switch 2-1 allows to swap COM1 with COM2, making COM2 accessible through the face plate connector instead. Note that the BIOS serial redirection feature uses COM1 as access interface. Therefore swapping the serial interfaces via SW2-1 also changes the serial connector that you need to access to make use of the serial redirection feature.
The pinout of the serial interface connector is shown below.

BIOS

4.1 Introduction

The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) provides an interface between the operating system and the hardware of the blade. It is used for hardware configuration. Before loading the operating system, BIOS performs basic hardware tests and prepares the blade for the initial boot-up procedure.
During blade production, identical BIOS images are programmed into both boot flash banks. It is possible to select boot flash as device to boot from. This is done via an IPMI command. For further details refer to section System Boot Options Parameter #96 on page 212.
The BIOS used on the blade is based on the Phoenix UEFI BIOS with several Artesyn Embedded Technologies extensions integrated. Its main features are:
Initialize CPU, chipset and memory
Initialize PCI devices
Chapter 4
Setup utility for setting configuration data
IPMC support
Serial console redirection for remote blade access
Boot operation system
The BIOS complies with the following specifications:
UEFI Specification 2.0
Plug and Play BIOS Specification 1.0A
PCI BIOS Specification 2.1
SMBIOS Specification 2.7
BIOS Boot Specification 1.01
PXE 2.1
SMP 1.4
ACPI 4.0
The BIOS setup program is required to configure the blade hardware. This configuration is necessary for operating the blade and connected peripherals. The configuration data are stored in the same flash device from which the board boots.
ATCA-7470 Installation and Use (6806800P15K)
83
Page 84
BIOS
When you are not sure about configuration settings, restore the default values. This option is provided in case a value has been changed and you wish to reset settings. To restore the default values, press <F3> in Setup.
Loading the BIOS default values affect all setup items and reset options previously
altered.
If you set the default values, the displayed default values takes effect only after the BIOS
setup is saved and closed.

4.2 Accessing the Blade Using the Serial Console Redirection

The blade’s firmware provides a serial console redirection feature allowing remote access to the blade through a terminal connected to the blade's serial interface.
The terminal can be connected to display VGA text information. Terminal keyboard input is redirected and treated as a normal PC keyboard input. The serial console redirection feature can be configured via a setup utility.

4.2.1 Requirements for Serial Console Redirection

For serial console redirection, the following is required:
Terminal or terminal emulation which supports a VT100 mode
NULL-modem cable
Terminal emulation programs such as TeraTermPro or Putty can be used.

4.2.2 Default Access Parameters

By default, the blade can be accessed using the serial interface COM1. By default, this interface is accessible using a RJ-45 connector at the blade's face plate.
84
ATCA-7470 Installation and Use (6806800P15K)
Page 85
A NULL-Modem cable is available as accessory kit for the blade. It converts the RJ-45 connector to a standard DSUB connector which can be connected to a remote terminal. The following communication parameters are used, by default:
Baud rate: 9600
Flow control: None
VT-100
8 data bits
No parity
1 stop bit

4.2.3 Connecting to the Blade

Procedure
BIOS
In order to connect to the blade using the serial console redirect feature, proceed as follows:
1. Configure terminal to communicate using the same parameters as in BIOS setup.
2. Connect terminal to NULL-modem cable.
3. Connect NULL-modem cable to COM port of the blade.
4. Start up the blade.

4.3 Changing Configuration Settings

When the system is switched on or rebooted, the presence and functionality of the system components is tested by Power-On Self-Test (POST).
ATCA-7470 Installation and Use (6806800P15K)
85
Page 86
BIOS
Press <F2> when requested. The main menu appears. It looks similar to the one shown in the following figure.
Figure 4-1 Main Menu
86
Make sure that BIOS is properly configured prior to installing the operating system and
its drivers.
If you save changes in setup, the next time the blade boots up, BIOS configures the
system according to the setup selections stored. If those values cause the system boot to fail, reboot and enter setup to get the default values or to change the selections that caused the failure.
In order to navigate in setup, use the arrow keys on the keyboard to highlight items on the menu. All other navigation possibilities are shown at the bottom of the menu.
Additionally, an item-specific help is displayed on the right side of the window.

4.4 Boot Options

This section describes which boot devices are supported by the BIOS and how to select the boot device.

4.4.1 Supported Boot Devices

The BIOS supports booting from the following devices/sources:
USB devices, such as floppy, CD ROM, and hard disk
Solid State Disk connected to the SATA interface. (available only when SSD SATA is
assembled)
Storage devices connected to the SAS controller (by RTM)
Network (Front Panel Ethernet, Base Ethernet, and Ethernet on RTM)
BIOS

4.4.2 Selecting the Boot Device

There are two possibilities to determine the device from which BIOS attempts to boot:
By setup, to select a permanent order of boot devices
By boot selection menu, to select any device for the next boot-up procedure only
ATCA-7470 Installation and Use (6806800P15K)
87
Page 88
BIOS
By Setup
To select the boot device by setup, proceed as follows:
1. From the menu, select Boot.
88
2. Select the order of the devices from which BIOS attempts to boot the operating
system.
If BIOS is not successful at booting from one device, it tries to boot from the next device on the list. When BIOS does not find any bootable device, the board will be restarted by a cold reset.

Page 89

4.4.3 By Boot Menu

1. Press F4 to enter the Boot Menu.
Figure 4-2 Boot Menu
BIOS
2. Override existing boot sequence by selecting another boot device from the boot list.
If the selected device does not load the operating system, BIOS returns to the boot menu.

BIOS

4.5 IPMI Boot Parameter

Many BIOS setup parameters and setup default parameters are stored as IPMI boot parameters within a non-volatile memory controlled by the IPMC. IPMI boot parameter supports USER and DEFAULT area. The USER area contains the current BIOS setup settings. The parameters in the USER area can be modified by the BIOS setup utility and can also be modified remotely by IPMI commands. For example, through shelf manager.
The DEFAULT area holds the BIOS default settings. This area is read only. BIOS default settings are loaded when selecting the Restore Defaults Item on BIOS Save & Exit Menu.
A detailed description of the IPMI Boot Parameter and the corresponding IPMI commands is available in the System Boot Options Parameter #100 on page 214.
The main advantage of using IPMI boot parameter is that the parameters stored as IPMI boot parameters are not changed after a BIOS upgrade or a BIOS boot bank switch. BIOS will not return to the BIOS default settings after a BIOS upgrade.
Normally, the BIOS setup parameters are stored within the BIOS flash. The following figure and description helps you to understand how a BIOS setup parameter and an IPMI boot parameter interact.
