Preventing Electrostatic Discharge

Static electricity can harm system boards. Perform service at an ESD workstation and follow proper ESD procedure to reduce the risk of damage to components. Kontron strongly encourages you to follow proper ESD procedure, which can include wrist straps and smocks, when servicing equipment.

Take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD):

•When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not remove the component's antistatic packing material until you are ready to install the component in a computer. Just before unwrapping the antistatic packaging, be sure you are at an ESD workstation or grounded. This will discharge any static electricity that may have built up in your body.

•When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container or packaging.

•Handle all sensitive components at an ESD workstation. If possible, use antistatic floor pads and workbench pads.

•Handle components and boards with care. Don't touch the components or contacts on a board. Hold a board by its edges or by its metal mounting bracket.

•Do not handle or store system boards near strong electrostatic, electromagnetic, magnetic, or radioactive fields.

•When you want to remove the protective foil (if present), make sure you are properly grounded and that you touch a metalic part of the board.

CAUTION

Removing the protective foil from the top and bottom cover might create static. When you remove those protections, make sure you follow the proper ESD procedure.

1.6 Interfacing with the Environment

1.6.1 RTM (rear transition module)

The RTM is a single slot (6HP) AdvancedTCA Rear Transition Module. This module provides additional connectivity for AT8940 CPU front blade.

1.6.1.1 Standard Compliance

• PICMG® 3.0 R3.0 Advance TCA™ base specification

• PICMG® 3.1 R2.0 Advance TCA™ Ethernet specification

1.6.1.2 Hot Swap

The RTM supports hot swapping by using the switch connected to the face plate lower ejector. This switch indicates the coming hot swap action. The insertion of the RTM to a slot is always done over a non powered connector. During the extraction procedure, the management power is disabled only when the RTM is removed. This procedure meets the AdvancedTCA AMC behavior.

1.6.1.2.1 Inserting the RTM into the slot

The presence of the RTM is indicated by one signal. The front blade IPMC recognizes the RTM insertion when the signal is low. After recognizing the RTM, the IPMC turns the blue LED ON and enables the management power to the RTM. Once the IPMB-L link is working, the IPMC accesses the MMC to retrieve FRU data. After knowing the type of RTM inserted, the IPMC negotiates with the shelf manager in order to activate the +12V payload power. After RTM local voltages have been ramped up, the RTM’s MMC enables the RTM Link.

After this the front board IPMC informs the shelf manager there is a functional RTM blade present.

1.6.1.2.2 Removing the RTM from the slot

The RTM_EJECT signal goes HIGH by opening the RTM lower ejector handle. This indicates to the front blade IPMC that a hot swap action is going to take place. The IPMC then negotiates the removal with the System manager and if it is granted, it proceeds with the removal process.

The IPMC proceeds to the deactivation by disabling ekey governed links, the IPMC then disables the RTM Link and turns OFF the payload +12V power. When it is safe to remove the RTM blade from the slot, the IPMC turns the Blue / Hot Swap LED ON. Front Blade IPMC turns OFF the management power only when there is no RTM detected. (RTM removed from the slot)

2.4.1 Fabric Switch

2.4.1.1 10G Option (BCM56842 320 Gbps)

The Broadcom BCM56842 320 Gbps Ethernet Multilayer Switch with 18 integrated Warp Cores builds the core of the 10G Fabric Interface. The Warp Cores are set in the required transfer mode; XFI, XAUI or 10GBASE-KR.

The 18 Warp Core cores are separated into four groups:

• Group 0: Warpcore[4:0] with 84 Gbps bandwidth

• Group 1: Warpcore[8:5] with 80 Gbps bandwidth

• Group 2: Warpcore[13:9] with 80 Gbps bandwidth

• Group 3: Warpcore[17:14] with 80 Gbps bandwidth

An additional 4 Gbps is allowed in Group 0 if WarpCore 0 is configured as 4x 1 GbE

The configuration of the Fabric Switch needs to limit the maximum bandwidth within the WarpCore Group. The port mapping is defined in a way the maximum bandwidth could be reached in different chassis and applications.

4. Hardware Management

4.1 Hardware Management Overview

The purpose of the hardware management system is to monitor, control, insure proper operation and provide hot swap support of ATCA Boards. The hardware management system watches over the basic health of the system, reports anomalies, and takes corrective action when needed. The hardware 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 hardware management system can also perform basic recovery operations such as power cycle or reset of managed entities.

4.2 Hardware Management Functionality

The Front Blade Unit supports an “intelligent” hardware management system, based on the Intelligent Platform Management Interface Specification. The hardware management system of the Front Blade Unit provides the ability to manage the power and interconnect needs of intelligent devices, to monitor events, and to log events to a central repository.

4.2.1 IPMC specific features

4.2.1.1 IPMC - ShMC interface

The principal management-oriented link within a Shelf is a two-way redundant implementation of the Intelligent Platform Management Bus (IPMB). IPMB is based on the inter-integrated circuit (I2C) bus and is part of the IPMI architecture. In AdvancedTCA Shelves, the main IPMB is called IPMB-0. Each entity attached to IPMB-0 does so through an IPM Controller, the distributed management controller of the IPMI architecture. Shelf Managers attach to IPMB-0 through a variant IPM Controller called the Shelf Management Controller (ShMC). AdvancedTCA IPM Controllers, besides supporting dual redundant IPMBs, also have responsibility for detecting and recovering from IPMB faults.

The reliability of the AdvancedTCA IPMB-0 is increased by using two IPMBs, with the two IPMBs referenced as IPMB-A and IPMB-B. The aggregation of the two IPMBs is IPMB-0. The IPM Controllers aggregate the information received on both IPMBs. An IPM Controller that has a message ready for transmit uses the IPMBs in a round robin fashion. An IPM Controller tries to alternate the transmission of messages between IPMB-A and IPMB-B.

If an IPM Controller is unable to transmit on the desired IPMB then it tries to send the message on the alternate IPMB. By using this approach, an IPMB can become unavailable and then available without the IPM Controller needing to take specific action.

4.2.1.2 IPMC - System Manager Interface

The Section 24 of [IPMI 2.0] describes how IPMI messages can be sent to and from the IPMC encapsulated in RMCP (Remote Management Control Protocol) packets datagrams. This capability is also referred to as “IPMI over LAN” (IOL). IPMI also defines the associated LAN-specific configuration interfaces for setting things such as IP addresses other options, as well as commands for discovering IPMI-based systems. The Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) specifies the RMCP format. This LAN communication path make the Front Blade Unit reachable to the System Manager for any management action (IPMC firmware upgrade, query of all FRU Data, CPU reset etc.) without the need to go through the ShMC.

4.2.1.3 IPMC - System Event Log

The Kontron IPMC implementation includes a Local System Event Log device as specified in the Section 31 of [IPMI 2.0]. The local System Event Log is a nonvolatile repository for the front board and all managed FRU events (RTM). The local SEL provides space for more than 5000 entries. However, even if blade events are logged into the local SEL, the IPMI platform event messages are still generated by the IPMC's Event Generator and sent to the centralized SEL hosted by the Shelf Manager through the IPMB-0 communication path - [PICMG 3.0] chapter 3.5; [IPMI 2.0] Section 29. Local SEL is useful for maintenance purposes and provides access to the events when the FRU is extracted from the Shelf.

4.3.3 Sensor Data Records

Information that describes the IPMC capabilities is provided through two mechanisms: capabilities commands and Sensor Data Records (SDRs). Capabilities commands are commands within the IPMI command set that return fields providing information on other commands and functions the controller can handle.

Sensor Data Records are data records containing information about the type and number of sensors in the platform, sensor threshold support, event generation capabilities, and information on what types of readings the sensor provides. The primary purpose of Sensor Data Records is to describe the sensor configuration of the hardware management subsystem to system software.

The IPMC are required to maintain Device Sensor Data Records for the sensors and objects they manage. Access methods for the Device SDR entries are described in the [IPMI 2.0] specification, Section 35, "Sensor Device Commands."

After a FRU is inserted, the System Manager, using the Shelf Manager, may gather the various SDRs from the FRU's IPM Controller to learn the various objects and how to use them. The System Manager uses the "Sensor Device Commands" to gather this information. Thus, commands, such as "Get Device SDR Info" and "Get Device SDR," which are optional in the IPMI specification, are mandatory in AdvancedTCA systems.

Most of the current Shelf Manager implementation gathers the individual Device Sensor Data Records of each FRU into a centralized SDR Repository. This SDR Repository may exist in either the Shelf Manager or System Manager. If the Shelf Manager implements the SDR Repository on-board, it shall also respond to "SDR Repository" commands.

This duplication of SDR repository commands creates sometime some confusion among AdvancedTCA users. This is mandatory for IPMC to support the Sensor Device Commands for IPMC built-in SDR as described in the [IPMI 2.0] specification, Section 35, "Sensor Device Commands." For the ShMC, the same set of commands for the centralized SDR Repository must be supported but they are described in the [IPMI 2.0] specification, Section 33, "SDR Repository Commands."

Note:

CONFIGFLASH is initialized once during manufacturing time. This partition is persistent across system updates. It shows always the version used to initialize the flash partition during manufacturing time.

5.2 Updating Firmware

The firmware - including bootloader - image is updated using the CLI of the base Ethernet switch.

The system update package (ie: t5310-system-BETA-1.02.tar; this example will be used in the following commands) contains an image of bootloader, Hyperviser and Linux kernel, root filesystems for both guest OSs and config partition as well as a MD5 checksum file for consistency check.

Note:

Please make sure, the name of the update package used does not exceed 32 characters (ASCII).

Note:

Please also note, updating the active image is not allowed

Note:

If you have created custom script files (.SCR) that are saved in the Switch, make sure to copy them on the backup flash bank (run this command in Fastpath before the update: copy active backup), this will copy the scripts from the currently active bank to the backup flash bank. Alternatively, back them up on an external server (Section 8.7.14 of CLI manual) for re-download after the update.

Page 72

Thermal Considerations

www.kontron.com

6. Thermal Considerations

The following chapter provide system integrators with the necessary information to satisfy thermal and airflow requirements when using the AT8940.

6.1 Thermal Monitoring

To ensure optimal operation and long-term reliability of the AT8940, all on-board components must remain within the maximum temperature specifications. Operating the AT8940 above the maximum operating limits will result in application performance degradation (e.g. the processor might throttles if it overheats) or may even damage the board. To ensure functionality at the maximum temperature, the blade supports several temperature monitoring and control features.

6.1.1 Heat Sinks

Multiple key components of the AT8940 are equipped with a specifically designed heat sink to ensure the best possible product for operational stability and long-term reliability. The physical size, shape, and construction of the heat sinks ensure the lowest possible thermal resistance. Moreover, the heat sinks were specifically designed to use forced airflow as found in ATCA systems.

6.1.2 Temperature Sensors

The AT8940 is equipped with 10 temperature sensors that are accessible via IPMI. Sensors are precisely positioned near critical components to accurately measure the on-board parts temperature. Temperature monitoring must be exercised to ensure highest possible level of system thermal management. An external system manager constitutes one of the best solution for thermal management, being able to report sensor status to end-user or manage events filters for example.

All sensors available on the AT8940, its RTM can carry are listed into the Sensor Data Repository with their thresholds as defined by the PICMG 3.0 specification. The following extract (from the PICMG 3.0 Base Specification) details naming convention for thresholds as well as the meaning of each threshold level.

IPMI non-critical / PICMG 3.0 minor / telco minor:

Temperature is getting closer to operating limit; it is not really a "problem" yet. It's only a warning.

IPMI critical / PICMG 3.0 major / telco major:

Temperature is at or over normal operating limit, but not in destructive zone. Unit still operating but MTBF might be affected.

IPMI non-recoverable / PICMG 3.0 critical/ telco critical:

57 AT8910/AT8940

Page 73

Thermal Considerations

www.kontron.com

Temperature has reached a destructive level. Device might be damaged.

Most ATCA chassis react to temperature events in the following manner: When a minor threshold is reached, the shelf manager will incrementally increase airflow (fan speed) to bring the temperature below the crossed threshold. When a major threshold is reached, the shelf manager will increase the fans to maximum speed. When a critical threshold is reached, the shelf manager will shutdown the blade to prevent damage. The shelf alarm panel, when available, can inform the operator with LEDs when an alarm (minor, major, critical) is raised. Refer to your chassis documentation to adapt and optimize your temperature monitoring application to chassis capabilities. See also System Airflow section for more information.

Below is the list of temperature sensors with their respective thresholds.

6.1.3 System Airflow

The airflow impedance (pressure) curve gives multiple information and tips about thermal operational range of the system carrying the AT8940. Once volumetric airflow capability of your chassis is known, the pressure curve can help determine the ambient (room) temperature setpoint that should be used for optimal operation. If you are using various models of ATCA blades into the same chassis, it is possible to find the best thermal fit. Having the volumetric airflow value for each chassis slot, it is then possible to decide the layout using the pressure curves.
