Intel® Server Board S2600CP and Intel® Server System P4000CP Platform Management Intel® Server Board S2600CP and Server System P4000CP TPS  During Power action, Power button/Reset button should not accept the next action until current Power action is complete and the acknowledgment from BMC is received.  EWS will provide a valid message during Power action until it completes the current Power action.  The VFP does not have any effect on whether the front panel is locked by "Set Front Panel Enables" command.  The chassis ID LED provides a visual indication of a system being serviced. The state of the chassis ID LED is affected by the following actions:  Toggled by turning the chassis ID button on or off.  There is no precedence or lock-out mechanism for the control sources. When a new request arrives, previous requests are terminated. For example, if the chassis ID button is pressed, then the chassis ID LED changes to solid on. If the button is pressed again, then the chassis ID LED turns off.  Note that the chassis ID will turn on because of the original chassis ID button press and will reflect in the Virtual Front Panel after VFP sync with BMC. Virtual Front Panel won't reflect the chassis LED software blinking by software command as there is no mechanism to get the chassis ID Led status.  Only Infinite chassis ID ON/OFF by software command will reflect in EWS during automatic/manual EWS sync up with BMC.  Virtual Front Panel help should available for virtual panel module.  At present, NMI button in VFP is disabled. It can be used in future. 6.4.3.19 Embedded Platform Debug The Embedded Platform Debug feature supports capturing low-level diagnostic data (applicable MSRs, PCI config-space registers, and so on). This feature allows a user to export this data into a file that is retrievable by the embedded web GUI, as well as through host and remote IPMI methods, for the purpose of sending to an Intel engineer for an enhanced debugging capability. The files are compressed, encrypted, and password protected. The file is not meant to be viewable by the end user but rather to provide additional debugging capability to an Intel support engineer. 6.4.3.20 Data Center Management Interface (DCMI) The DCMI specification is an emerging standard that is targeted to provide a simplified management interface for Internet Portal Data Center (IPDC) customers. It is expected to become a requirement for server platforms which are targeted for IPDCs. DCMI is an IPMIbased standard that builds upon a set of required IPMI standard commands by adding a set of DCMI-specific IPMI OEM commands. Intel® Server Platforms will be implementing the mandatory DCMI features in the BMC firmware (DCMI 1.1 Errata 1 compliance). Please refer to DCMI 1.1 errata 1 spec for details. Only mandatory commands will be supported. No support for optional DCMI commands. Optional power management and SEL roll over feature is not supported. DCMI Asset tag will be independent of baseboard FRU asset Tag. Please refer table DCMI Group Extension Commands for more details on DCMI commands. 6.4.3.21 Lightweight Directory Authentication Protocol (LDAP) The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is an application protocol supported by the BMC for the purpose of authentication and authorization. The BMC user connects with an LDAP server for login authentication. This is only supported for non-IPMI logins including the embedded web UI and SM-CLP. IPMI users/passwords and sessions are not supported over LDAP. 82 Revision 1.2 Intel order number G26942-003
