Re: ATCA board on table

1

Hello Stephane,

weird, I am using the same configuration with the board on the table right now. Before I send the raw command to go to standalone mode I get a stream of messages like the following:

: IPMB-A error: IPMC 20: not ready
: event message delivery failed

Once I send the reset command, these messages disappear and the IPMC works normally.

It would be helpful to get the full list of boot messages when the IPMC fails. BTW, how did you wire up the H/W address pins on the Zone 1 connector when you power the board on the shelf?

cheers,

Stefan

Hello Stefan

It would be helpful to get the full list of boot messages when the IPMC fails.

[SC] Here is the UART IPMC log when the LASP is booted on table.

BTW, how did you wire up the H/W address pins on the Zone 1 connector when you power the board on the shelf?

[SC] HA pins of the Z1 connector are connected to 3V3, HA<7…0> = FF

Cheers,

Stephane

Hello Stephane,

you need to provide a valid hardware address to the IPMC, this may be why the IPMC is not working as expected. The bit HA7 is the parity bit (odd parity), so an address od 0xFF is not valid. Try tying at least one of the other HA bits to ground. You can see an error message relating to this in the boot log you sent:

: Invalid hardware address: 0xFF

I also see some message relating to an RTM, is this code that you added? If so, I would try disabling that code to see if it interferes with the operation outside the shelf.

cheers,

Stefan
