System Management Interface Based on HPI-B (Centellis 2000 R3.0/4411) User’s Guide (6806800P20C) 31
If you want to access the HPI daemons via the physical IP addresses of the ATCA-
MF106/SAM1411 blades, then you need to specify two physical IP addresses corresponding to
the two ATCA-MF106/SAM1411 blades in your configuration file. Therefore, in a Centellis 4411
system for example, the configuration file could contain the following two entries.
[ShelfFrodo1]
Daemon=192.168.21.8
Port=4743
[ShelfFrodo2]
Daemon=192.168.22.9
Port=4743
At start-up, your application would typically first determine which HPI daemon is currently
active (for example by opening a session with the daemon), and then establish a connection
with the active daemon. In order to monitor the status of an established connection, you can
use OEM HPI sensors. Refer to
Working with the Multishelf Library on page 43 for further details.
If the application detects, that the connection to the active daemon got lost, it would establish
a connection to the previously deactivated daemon and continue with that daemon. Since the
HPI resource IDs were preserved in a file, the application can continue with the same resource
IDs. Apart from resource IDs, however, no other data is replicated and therefore preserved.

The activation of a previously deactivated HPI daemon may take up to several minutes. Your
application should take this into account when establishing a connection with a previously
deactivated HPI daemon.
