20 PENT/ATCA717
Damage of Blade and Additional Devices and Modules Incorrect installation of additional devices or modules may damage the blade or the additional devices or modules. Before installing or removing an additional device or module, read the respective documentation

Operation

Blade damage Blade surface High humidity and condensation on the blade surface causes short circuits. Do not operate the blade outside the specified environmental limits. Make sure the blade is completely dry and there is no moisture on any surface before applying power. Do not operate the blade below 0°C.
Blade Overheating and Blade Damage Operating the blade without forced air cooling may lead to blade overheating and thus blade damage. When operating the blade, make sure that forced air cooling is available in the shelf.
When operating the blade in areas of electromagnetic radiation ensure that the blade is bolted on the system and the system is shielded by enclosure.
Injuries or short circuits Blade or power supply In case the ORing diodes of the blade fail, the blade may trigger a short circuit between input line A and input line B so that line A remains powered even if it is disconnected from the power supply circuit (and vice versa). To avoid damage or injuries, always check that there is no more voltage on the line that has been disconnected before continuing your work.

Switch Settings

Blade Malfunction Switches marked as ’reserved’ might carry production−related functions and can cause the blade to malfunction if their setting is changed. Therefore, do not change settings of switches marked as ’reserved’. The setting of switches which are not marked as ’reserved’ has to be checked and changed before blade installation.
Blade Damage Setting/resetting the switches during operation can cause blade damage. Therefore, check and change switch settings before you install the blade.

OnBoard Hardware Accessories

The following hardware upgrades can be installed on the blade:
S PMC modules
S Hard Disk
S CompactFlash card
S CMC module

PMC Modules

The blade provides four PMC slots supporting PCI/PCI−X based PMC modules. When operated in PCI mode, PMC modules run at 33/66Mhz, when operated in PCI−X mode they run at 66/100MHz. All four PMC slots use a signaling level of 3.3V.
aaaaa
The four PMC slots are numbered from 1 to 4. Their location is shown in the following figure.
a
46 PENT/ATCA717
OnBoard Hardware Accessories Installation
Figure 4: Location of PMC Slots
PMC slots 1 and 2 belong to one PCI segment and PMC slots 3 and 4 belong to another PCI segment. Within the same PCI segment, it is possible to install two PMC modules of different modes (PCI/PCI−X) and speeds (33/66/100 MHz). The PMC module with the overall lower performance (combination of speed and PCI mode) determines the speed and PCI mode of the second PMC module.
aaa
Example:aA PMC module supporting PCI−X/66MHz is installed into PMC slot 1 and a
PMC module supporting PCI/66MHz is installed into PMC slot 2. In this case both PMC modules are operated in PCI/66 MHz mode because the PMC module with the overall less performance is the one supporting PCI/66 MHz and consequently the second PMC module is operated in this mode as well.
a
Before installing PMC modules, the following general safety notes must be observed.a
PENT/ATCA717 47
Installation OnBoard Hardware Accessories
S Limited Power on PMC Modules and RTMs
The blade does not provide an extra fuse for PMC modules and RTMs. PMC modules and RTMs used together with the blade have to be qualified according to the following standards: IEC 60950−1, EN 60950−1, UL 60950−1, CAN/CSA C22−2 No 60950−1
S Excession of blade‘s power consumption
Exceeding the maximum combined power dissipation of installed PMC modules may damage the blade.
a
Make sure that the combined power dissipation of installed PMC modules on the
3.3V and 5V rail does not exceed 60W.
S PMC Module Malfunctioning
Processor PMC modules (as defined in ANSI/VITA 32−2003) can be operated in two different modes: monarch and non−monarch mode.a Make sure to operate any installed processor PMC modules (as defined in ANSI/VITA 32−2003) only in non−monarch mode.
a
S Damage of Installed Hard Disk
If PPMC/270 or PPMC/280 modules are installed into PMC slot 1 or 2, the heat radiated by the heat sink of theses PMC modules heats up an installed hard disk that may be installed at the same time. If PPMC/270 or PPMC/280 modules are installed into PMC slot 1 or 2, make sure not to have a hard disk installed at the same time.
S Damage of Rear Transition Module and Blade
The ACC/ARTM−717 was designed to be used in conjunction with PPMC/270 or PPMC/280 modules modules installed on the blade at the same time. In order to avoid damage of the blade or RTM, only use the ACC/ARTM−717 in conjunction with PPMC/270 or PPMC/280 modules.

Note:a S The signals available at pins 30 and 31 depend on the settings of the on−board
switches SW7−1 to SW7−4. See details.
a
S By default, the PMC I/O Ethernet signals (ETH_xxx) are routed to the on−board
switch via magnetics. As an assembly option the magnetics can be by−passed and the Ethernet signals can be accessed via an installed PMC uplink module from Motorola. Consult your local Motorola representative for details.
S By default the signals at pins 61 to 64 are routed the zone 3 connectors where they
are available as PMC I/O signals. As an assembly option these signals can be routed to the on−board Ethernet switch as further 100BaseTX interface. Consult your local Motorola representative for details.

Zone 2 contains the three connectors P20, P22 and P23. They carry the following types of signals:
S Telecom clock signals (CLKx_)
S Base interface signals (BASE_)
S Fabric channel interfaces (FAB_)
Some of the pins provided by P20, P21 and P23 are defined as optional in the AdvancedTCA specification and are unused on the blade. If the AdvancedTCA specification defines these signals as input signals, they are terminated on the blade and marked as "TERM_" in the following pinouts. In all other cases the pins are unconnected and consequently marked as "n.c.".

BIOS Introduction

Introduction

BIOS (Basic Input Output System) 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 the blade′s boot and user flash. By default the blade boots from the boot flash. It is possible to select between boot and user flash as device to boot from. This is done via a OEM IPMI command. For further details refer to the
IPMI Programmer’s Guide
a which can be downloaded from the Motorola literature catalog.
The presence of two redundant flash devices also allows for updating the BIOS image without affecting running processes.
The BIOS used on the blade is based on the Phoenix 4.0 Release 6.0 BIOS with several Motorola extensions integrated. Its main functions are:
S Hardware set−up utility for setting configuration data
aPENT/ATCA−715/717/7105/7107: Control via
aaa
S Multiboot for a flexible boot order
S Serial console redirection for remote blade configuration
S Software upgrade utility
Note:aThe BIOS contains on−line documentation which provides detailed description of all BIOS functions. Therefore the description in this manual is restricted to the main BIOS functions.
a
The BIOS set−up program is required to configure the hardware of the blade. This configuration is necessary for operating the blade and connected peripherals. It is stored in the battery backed−up CMOS memory as well as in the blade’s boot flash.
a
Whenever you are not sure about configuration settings, restore the default values. They are provided in case a value has been changed and you wish to reset settings. To restore the default values, press <F9> in setup.
Note:a S Loading the BIOS default values will affect all set−up items and will reset options
previously altered.
a
S If you set the default values, the displayed default values are not yet stored to be
effective for the next boot. They are just loaded to be displayed. However, they become effective if the BIOS setup is exited after changes have been saved.
82 PENT/ATCA717
Introduction BIOS
The BIOS complies to the following specifications:
S Plug and Play BIOS Specification 1.0A
S PCI BIOS Specification 2.1
S SMBIOS Specification 2.3
S BIOS Boot Specification 1.01
S PXE 2.0
PENT/ATCA717 83
BIOS Serial Console Redirection

Serial Console Redirection

The firmware of the blade provides a serial console redirection feature. This allows remote blade configuration by connecting a terminal to the blade via a serial communication link.
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 setup utility.
Note:aIf serial console redirection is enabled the terminal represents an option and is not necessarily required for boot−up procedure.

Requirements

For serial console redirection, the following is required:
a
a
S Terminal which supports a VT100 or ANSI mode
S NULL−modem cable
Terminal emulation programs such as TeraTermPro can be used. In order to use TeraTermPro via the function keys, the keyboard configuration file of TeraTermPro has to be modified as follows:
Table 8: Key Codes for Terminal Emulation Program
Function Key
PF1 59
PF2 60

Default Configuration

By default, the blade can be accessed via the serial interface COM1. This interface is, by default, accessible via an installed RTM through an RJ−45 connector. If no RTM is present or you wish to access COM1 from the blade’s face plate, COM1 can alternatively be made accessible at an installed CMC module. Whether COM1 is available via RTM or CMC module depends on the setting of the on−board switch SW3−4 which enables/disables COM port swapping. The following table provides details.aaa
Setting of SW3−4
a
Key Code
COM1 is accessible via:
OFF (default) RTM (upper serial connector)
ON CMC module (upper serial connector)
84 PENT/ATCA717
Serial Console Redirection BIOS
Note:a
S The COM port routing described above is only applicable to BIOS versions w 2.0.0.
Earlier BIOS versions used a different routing. For details refer to
aPENT/ATCA−715/717/7105/7107 BIOS Information Sheeta which can be
the downloaded from the Motorola literature catalog web site.
S COM port swapping can also be enabled via an IPMI System Boot Options
command. COM port swapping is enabled if either the on−board switch 3−4, the IPMI System Boot Options command or both enable it.
a
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:
S Baud rate: 9600
S No handshake
S PC ANSI
S 8 data bits
S No parity
S 1 stop bit
All configuration parameters listed above can be modified via the BIOS.

Connecting to the Blade

In order to connect to the blade using the serial console redirect feature, proceed as follows:.
Procedure
1. Configure terminal to communicate using the same parameters as in BIOS
setup
2. Connect terminal to NULL−modem cable
a
3. Connect NULL−modem cable to COM port you have selected in BIOS setup
4. Start up blade
PENT/ATCA717 85
BIOS BIOS Crisis Recovery Mode

BIOS Crisis Recovery Mode

Immediately after a reset or power−up a routine in the boot flash boot block is invoked which checks whether a valid BIOS image is available. If no valid image is found and consequently the blade is unable to boot, the blade enters into BIOS crisis recovery mode. In this mode a routine tries to load a BIOS crisis recovery image from a disk drive connected to the blade’ s USB interface. The BIOS crisis recovery image is basically a mini DOS with minimum functionality which replaces the corrupted image.
A valid BIOS crisis recovery image can be downloaded from the former Force Computers SMART server or the Motorola website as part of the BIOS upgrade kit which which is available for this blade. The image is accompanied by readme files which describe how to create the BIOS upgrade/recovery disk and how to to replace a corrupted BIOS with the BIOS crisis recovery image.
a
If the blade has enterred BIOS crisis recovery mode,the face plate LED "HDD" is lit ed. After the BIOS recovery image has been successfully flashed, the LED is lit green.
a
a
Note:aFlashing the BIOS crisis recovery image may take up to two minutes. In order to avoid blade damage, it is absolutely important not to interrupt the flashing process. Therefore wait until the LED is lit green again, which indicates a successful flashing.

Changing Configuration Settings BIOS

Changing Configuration Settings

When the system is turned on or rebooted, the presence and functionality of the system components is tested by POST (Power−On Self−Test).
Press <F2> when requested. The main menu appears. It looks similar to the menu shown in the following figure. Note that the layout may slightly vary with new BIOS versions.
a
a
Figure 32: Main Menu
Note:a
S Make sure that BIOS is properly configured prior to installing the operating system
and its drivers.
S If you save changes in setup, the next time the blade boots BIOS will configure 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. If the boot fails or is interrupted three times in a row, the default values are then loaded automatically.
In order to navigate in setup, use the arrow keys on the keyblade 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 menu window.
PENT/ATCA717 87
BIOS Selecting The Boot Device

Selecting The Boot Device

There are two possibilities to determine the device from which BIOS attempts to boot:
S Via setup to select a permanent order of boot devices
S Via boot selection menu to select any device for the next boot−up procedure only

Via Setup

1. In the menu line, select [Boot]
A menu similar to the one shown in the following figure appears. Note that the layout may vary slightly with new BIOS versions.
a
2. Select [Boot Device Priority]
A menu similar to the one shown in the following figure appears. Note that the layout may vary slightly with new BIOS versions.
88 PENT/ATCA717
a
Selecting The Boot Device BIOS
3. 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.
If there is more than one device of the same type, e.g. several hard disks, the displayed entry represents the first of these devices as specified in the boot configuration via setup.
The same options determine the order in which POST installs the devices and the operating system assigns device letters. BIOS supports up to two floppy devices to which the operating system may assign, e.g. drive letters A: and B:. The drives C:, D:, E: etc. are reserved for hard−disk drives.
Note:aThere is not always an exact correspondence between the order specified in setup and the letters assigned by the operating system. Many devices, such as legacy option ROMs, support more than one device that can be assigned to several letters. If the CD−ROM drive should have a letter coming before the one assigned to the hard drive, move it in front of the hard drive. The group of bootable add−in cards refers to devices with non−multiboot−compliant BIOS option ROM from which you can boot the operating system.
a

Via Boot Selection Menu

To enter the boot menu, press <ESC> during POST. The menu that appears looks similar to the one shown in the following figure. Note that the layout may vary slightly with new BIOS versions.
a
PENT/ATCA717 89
BIOS Selecting The Boot Device

Continue with one of the following options:
a) Override existing boot sequence by selecting another boot device from the boot order
list or
b) Select [Enter Setup] to enter setup utility or
c) Press <Esc> to return to POST screen and continue with previous boot sequence
Note:aIf the selected device does not load the operating system, BIOS reverts to the previous boot sequence.

Restoring BIOS Default Settings BIOS

Restoring BIOS Default Settings

The blade provides an on−board configuration switch that allows to clear the blade’s CMOS and thus to restore the BIOS default settings. In order to restore the BIOS default settings using this switch, you have to proceed as follows.

Procedure

1. Remove the blade from the system
Seeasection "Installation into Powered Shelves" on pagea54a for the exact procedure
2. Set the on−board switch SW2−3 to ON
Seeasection "Switch Settings" on pagea42a for the exact location of SW2−3
3. Install and power up the blade
Seeasection "Installation into Powered Shelves" on pagea54a for the exact procedure.a Note that the blade will not boot, because the "Clear CMOS RAM" switch SW2−3 is set to ON.
