4 Hardware Platform Management

4.1 Platform Management Overview

The purpose of the hardware platform management system is to monitor, control, and assure proper
operation of AdvancedTCA® Boards and other Shelf components. The hardware platform management
system watches over the basic health of the system, reports anomalies, and takes corrective action
when needed. The hardware platform 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 platform management system can also perform basic recovery
operations such as power cycle or reset of managed entities.

The IPMI controller on aTCA-6200 supports an “intelligent” hardware management system, based on
the Intelligent Platform Management Interface Specification. The hardware management system
provides the ability to manage the power, cooling, and interconnect needs of intelligent devices; to
monitor events; and to log events to a central repository.
