Intel® Server Boards SE7320SP2 and SE7525GP2 Platform Management 5.2.9 Sensor Data Record (SDR) Repository The mBMC includes built-in sensor data records that provide platform management capabilities (sensor types, locations, event generation and access information). The SDR repository is accessible via all communication transports. This way, out-of-band interfaces can access the SDR repository information if the system is down. The mBMC supports 2176 bytes of storage for SDR records. The SDR defines the type of sensor, thresholds, hysteresis values, and event configuration. The mBMC supports up to six threshold values for threshold-based full sensor records, and up to 15 events for non thresholdbased full and compact sensor records. It supports low-going and high-going sensor devices. 5.2.9.1 Initialization Agent The mBMC implements the internal sensor initialization agent functionality specified in the Intelligent Platform Management Interface Specification, Version 1.5. When the mBMC initializes, or when the system boots, the initialization agent scans the SDR repository and configures the sensors referenced by the SDRs. This includes setting sensor thresholds, enabling/disabling sensor event message scanning, and enabling/disabling sensor event messages. 5.2.10 Event Message Reception The mBMC supports externally (e.g., BIOS) generated events via the Platform Event Message command. Events received via this command will be logged to the SEL and processed by PEF. 5.2.11 Event Filtering and Alerting The mBMC implements the following IPMI 1.5 alerting features: PEF Alert over LAN 5.2.11.1 Platform Event Filtering (PEF) The mBMC monitors platform health and logs failure events into the SEL. The platform event filtering feature provides a configurable mechanism to allow events to trigger alert actions. PEF provides a flexible, general mechanism that enables the mBMC to perform selectable actions triggered by a configurable set of platform events. The mBMC supports the following IPMI PEF actions: Power-down Soft shut-down Power cycle Reset Diagnostic Interrupt Alert Revision 4.0 109
