1.3 IPMI Overview
This product fully supports the Intelligent Platform Management Interface and PICMG 2.9 R1.0
specifications. All of its IPMI functionality operates under an autonomous management
controller even if the board is held in reset or power-down mode by a management card within
a system designed for high availability.
While the CP6003-SA/RA/RC IPMI implementation is fully compliant with IPMI v2.0 and has
been designed to operate with any system management software (SMS) that respects this
specification, can be easily integrated with the Service Availability Forum-Hardware Platform
Interface (SAF-HPI) specification.
More information about Service Availability can be found on the following website:

IPMI is an extensible and open standard that defines autonomous system monitoring. It is au-
tonomous because every management controller within a CompactPCI chassis monitors its
own sensors and sends critical events through a dedicated bus to the BMC that logs it into a
non-volatile System Event Log (SEL). The CP6003-SA/RA/RC IPMI implementation includes
a device SDR repository module that allows the user's system management software to detect
all system components and build a database of all management controller sensors.
