4.1 Hardware Management Overview
The purpose of the hardware management system is to monitor, control, ensure 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.
