1System Architecture
PICMG Compliance
The CPX8216 system is designed to be fully complia nt with the
CompactPCI Hot Swap Specification developed by the PCI Industrial
Computers Manufacturi ng Group (PICMG). With the proper software
support and testing, it should be possible to integrate all propri etary and
third-party I/O modul es which are compatible with this specificat ion.
Further , the system allows the use of I/O modules which are not hot
swappable, but the system must be powered off when such modules are
inserted and extract ed .
The CPX8216 also fe atures the ability to hot swap system and nonsystem
processor boards, a feature which is beyond the scope of the PICMG
specification. As part of its c ommitment to open standards, Motorola will
propose that th e proce ssor ho t swap c apabilit ie s of th e CPX8216 be added
to the Hot Swap Specification. At this point, however, there are no thirdparty CPU modules which are compatible with the CPX8216 syst em.
1
System Domains
The high availa bility a nd high slot coun t of th e CPX8216 sys tems i s made
possible by implementing two host CPU slots a nd multi ple CompactPCI
bus segments in a single chassis. These bus segments, along with other
system resources are grouped into two logical domains, A and B, which
can be controlle d by either host-HSC pair r egardless of the bus se gment the
host sits on. Domain A includes C ompactPCI bus segment A (sl ots 1 to 8),
the power supply/fan tray modul es and alarm controls. In the CPX8216,
domain B consists of the CompactPCI bus segment B (slots 9 to 16). For
further information on domain c ontrol or ownership, see the section, Hot
Swap Contr oller on page 1-6.

Figure 1-2. CPX8216 Standard System Layout
Each of the two independent I/O domains has its own system processor
slot. Each system processor has direct access to its local bus through an
onboard PCI-to-PCI (P2P) bridge. Each domain is also capable of
supporting a Hot Swap Con troller ( HSC) module that cont ains its own P2P
bridge. Thus, in a f ul ly redunda nt configurati on, there are two bridge s tha t
have access to ea ch of the I/O buses—one assoc iated with the CPU and one
with the HSC. Only one of the bridges may be active at a time, however.

Figure 1-4. CPX8216 I/O Bus Connectivity
In addition to provi ding bridges t o the remote I/O bus es, the HSC provides
the services necessar y to hot swap CPU boards and nonhost proces sor
boards and also contro ls the system ala rm panel, fans, and power suppli es.
The Hot Swap Controller/Bridge (HSC) Module
The HSC module connect s to the CPU module through a loc al P CI bus, as
illustrated in Figure 1-2 and Figure 1-3. The HSC module contains a PCI-
to-PCI bridge and also contains a Hot Swap Controller .
The functionalit y provided by the HSC is at the heart of the High
Ava ilability CPX8216 System. Its primary functions include:
❏Providing a bridge between the two ei ght-slot CompactPCI buses
so that they can be managed by a single CPU module
❏Maintaining a Control Status Register whi ch contains in formation
on the status of each system module
http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature1-5

System A rchitecture
❏Controlling power and resets to each system module through
radial connections
❏Monitoring and controlling CPU boards, nonhost boar ds, a nd
peripherals, including power and fan sleds, board and system
LEDs, and alarms
Hot Swap Controller
Each of the nonhost slots in the syste m can be controlled from either HSC.
When an HSC has control over a domain it has control over the nonhost
boards in that domain. Each host processor /br idge pair is controlled as a
single item by the other processor/bridge pair. The bridge and the host
processor are linked together so tha t both must be present for power to be
applied. A host processor cannot be operate d without its HSC.
With the CPX8216 a rchitectur e it is importa nt that the syste m initializes t o
a state that allows the host processor s and HSCs to be in control of the
system. The default conditions are:
❏System processors an d bridges are powered up (if present)
❏System processors an d bridges are disconne cted from their busses
❏HSCs are not in control of either domain
❏Nonhost boards are powered off
❏Peripheral bay s are pow e red u p (if pres en t)
❏Fans and power supplies are powere d on
NoteSystem components such as fans and power supplies may be
controlled by e ither HSC but not both. Def ault cont rol belongs to
Domain A and whichever HSC has control of Domain A has
control of the system functions .
If Domain A is not controlled, nonhost boards are powere d- off
and all LED updates to the display panel and power supplies are
suspended. Also, monitoring of alarm inputs from the display
panel and power supplies are inhibited.

System Process o r Config urati o n s
Subsequent to the default, the system software must determine the
configuration of the system and then proceed to change it.
System Processor Configurations
The CPX8216 is a flexib le system that allows for multiple configurations
of processor control, I/O redundancy, and peripheral configur ations. The
following sections br iefly touch on possible configurati ons.
As noted above, there are three possible processor/control configurations:
❏A simplex system conta ining a single CPU-HSC pair controlling
both I/O domains
❏An active/pa ssive configuration simila r to the simpl ex
configuration , but providing a warm backup for bot h the CPU and
the HSC
❏An active/active or load-sharing configuration in which each CPU
runs a single domain while also serving a s a backup to the othe r
CPU.
NoteH.110 traffic and HA Linux do not support a load-
sharing configura tion.
1
The following sections give a general de scription of these configurations.
The Simplex Configuration
Because of the flexible nature of the CPX8216, it is possible to configure
it with different lev el s of redundancy and availability. For applications
which do not require the benefits of full high availability, it is possible to
configure the CPX8216 as a simplex, 16-slot system. This configuration
provides the benefits of redundant power supplies and the system
monitoring capabilities of the fully redundant configuration.

The Active/Active or Load-Sharing Configuration
The Active/Ac tive or Load-Sharing Confi guration
In the load sharing configu ration, each CPU manages si x of the twelve I/O
slots, much like a dual 8-slot system with the added benefit of one CPU
being able to control all twelve I/O slots if the other CPU fails. It is
important in a load-shar ing configuration to note that the total cri tical
activity does not exceed the capabilities of a single CPU, because either
one of the C PUs must be ready to take over the loa d carried by the other.

System A rchitecture
I/O Configurations
The CPX8216 contains two independent 8-slot Co mpactPCI buses. One
slot in each bus is dedicated to a system processor, and another is needed
for the HSC. This leaves six slots on each bus to support I/O devic es or
nonsystem processors.
One possible configuration is to use the CPX8216 as a high I/O
CompactPCI system with redundant CPUs. With this configuration, it is
possible to run twelve independent I /O modul es within a CPX8216
system. Applications requiring dense processing power could use all
twelve I/O slots to support nonsystem processors.
Such a system would be protecte d against a CPU or HSC fault, but it would
be vulnerable to data losses if any of the I/O modules or nonsystem
processor modules were to fail. In syste ms handling critical data, it is
possible to implement a 2N or an N+1 I/O redundancy str ategy that allows
the level of service to be continued in the event that a module fails.
In the case of a 2N-redundant system, each I/O module or nonsystem
processor module is matched with an identical module on the other bus.
The paired modules can be configur ed in an active/passi ve arrangement or
a load-sharing arrangement in wh ic h each carri es h al f of the load of a
single module. In an N+1 ar rangement, multi ple modules a re backed up by
a single spare. For example, a single passive nonsystem processor module
can be used to back up five others.
Peripherals
Power/Fan Modules
The CPX8216 system requires a minimum of two power/fan sled modules
and a fan-only sled module to provide adequate power and cooling for a
fully loaded, nonredundant system. The system can c onta in a third power
supply/fan sled a s part of an N+1 strategy, meaning that the system can
continue providing se rvice if one of the mod ules fails. These modules are
hot swappable and available for DC and AC environments.
