# 5 Getting Started

The aTCA-9700 has been designed for easy installation. However, the following standard precautions, installation procedures, and general information must be observed to ensure proper installation and to preclude damage to the board, other system components, or injury to personnel.

# 5.1 Safety Requirements

The following safety precautions must be observed when installing or operating the aTCA-9700. ADLINK assumes no responsibility for any damage resulting from failure to comply with these requirements.

Exercised due care when handling the board as the heat sink can get very hot. Do not touch the heat sink when installing or removing the board. The board should not be placed on any surface or in any form of storage container until the board and heat sink have cooled down to room temperature.

This ATCA blade contains electrostatic sensitive devices. Please observe the necessary precautions to avoid damage to your board:

Discharge your clothing before touching the assembly. Tools must be discharged before use.
Do not touch components, connector-pins or traces.
If working at an anti-static workbench with professional discharging equipment, please do not omit to use it.

# 5.2 Installing and Removing the aTCA-9700

# 5.2.1 Installing the Blade

# 5.3 Firmware Update Procedure

The aTCA-9700 supports firmware update (IPMC FW, BIOS, FRU) over various interfaces (LAN, KCS, serial interface or IPMB). Please follow the procedures listed below to update the IPMC firmware.

Note: IPMB-0 will be disabled during the process of upgrading IPMC firmware. This is a limitation of the IPMC controller (SmartFusion A2F500)

# 5.3.1 Update Over Serial Interface

The following IPMItool command line parameters are used for communicating with the carrier IPMC via a serial interface:

# -I serial-terminal

This parameter instructs the IPMItool utility to use the serial interface for communications with the carrier IPMC.

# -D &lt;dev[:baudrate]&gt;

This parameter specifies the serial device and baud rate settings to use. For Linux hosts, the serial device is the system path to the device node (e.g. /dev/ttyS0).

Perform the following steps to update the IPMC firmware:

Step 1: Prepare an external host PC with Linux OS and connect it to the serial port on the aTCA-9700 via the COM port (USB Mini-B on the front panel). Put the IPMItool utility and new firmware image on the host PC. Enter the following command:

Step 2: Enter “y” when prompted and wait until the string “firmware update procedure successful” is displayed.

To update other images (BIOS, FRU, etc), just replace the target image and the file name while typing command.

<table><tr><td>Item</td><td>File name</td></tr><tr><td>IPMC firmware</td><td>hpm1fw.img</td></tr><tr><td>BIOS</td><td>hpm1bios.img</td></tr></table>

# Note:

1. The hpm1bios.img always updates the backup BIOS image.
2. Make sure the payload power is off (M1 state) before updating the IPMC firmware

# 5.3.2 Update over KCS

Step1: Prepare an aTCA-9700 with Linux system. Enter the following command to make sure the ipmi\_si and ipmi\_devintf modules are loaded before the IPMItool utility can be used.

Step2: Put IPMItool and “target image” in the Linux system then enter the following command:

Step3: Select “y” and wait until the string of “firmware update procedure successful” is displayed.

To update other images (BIOS, FRU, etc), just replace the target image and the file name while typing command.

<table><tr><td>Item</td><td>File name</td></tr><tr><td>IPMC firmware</td><td>hpm1fw.img</td></tr><tr><td>BIOS</td><td>hpm1bios.img</td></tr></table>

# 5.3.3 Update over LAN

The following IPMItool command line parameters are used for communicating with the carrier IPMC via LAN:

# -I lan

The parameter instructs the IPMItool utility to use the RMCP protocol for communicating with the IPMC.

# -H &lt;IP address &gt;

# Hyper-threading

This item allows you to enable or disable the Hyper-Threading technology. Options: Enabled/Disabled.

# Active Processor Core

This item allows you to select the number of cores to enable in each processor package. This BIOS setting is present only when a multi-core processor is installed.

# Limit CPUID Maximum

When the computer is booted up, the operating system executes CPUID instruction to identify the processor and its capabilities. Before it can do so, it must first query the processor to find out the highest input value CPUID recognizes. This determines the kind of basic information CPUID can provide the operating system. This option allows you to circumvent problems with older operating systems that do not support Intel Pentium 4 processor with Hyper-Threading Technology.

When Enabled, the processor will limit the maximum CPUID input value to 03h when queried, even if the processor supports a higher CPUID input value. When Disabled, the processor will return the actual maximum CPUID input value of the processor when queried. Options: Enabled/Disabled.

# Execute Disable Bit

Intel’s Execute Disable Bit functionality can help prevent certain classes of malicious buffer overflow attacks when combined with a supporting operating system. Execute Disable Bit allows the processor to classify areas in memory by where application code can execute and where it cannot. When a malicious worm attempts to insert code in the buffer, the processor disables code execution and prevents damage and worm propagation.

# Hardware Prefetcher

This is used for reducing the waiting time of DRAM. The hardware prefetcher looks for streams of data and tries to predict what data will be needed next by the processor and proactively tries to fetch these data. Options: Enabled/Disabled.

# Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch

It is opened for choose the optimal use of sequential memory access for performance purpose. Disable this setting for the application that requires high use of random memory access. Options: Enabled/Disabled.

# DCU Streamer Prefetch

There are two distinct hardware prefetchers on aTCA-9700. Data Cache Unit (DCU)

streamer prefetcher and Data Cache Unit (DCU) IP-prefetcher. DCU streamer prefetchers detect multiple reads to a single cache line in a certain period of time and choose to load the following cache line to the L1 data caches.

This option allows user to enable or disable DCU streamer Prefetcher.

# DCU IP Prefetcher

DCU IP Prefetcher looks for sequential load history to determine whether to prefetch the data to the L1 caches.

This option allows user to enable or disable DCU IP Prefetcher.

# Intel Virtualization

Intel Virtualization Technology consists of components that support virtualization of platforms based on Intel processors, thereby enabling the running of multiple operating systems and applications in independent partitions. Each partition behaves like a virtual machine (VM) and provides isolation and protection across partitions.

Intel VT requires the use of a processor with Intel VT support. Additionally, a thirdparty VMM may also be required. Options: Enabled/Disabled.

# 7 Serial Over LAN

Serial Over LAN (SOL) is a remote management feature that allows the IPMC (Smart Fusion A2F500) to redirect the serial console from the blade via an IPMI session over the network with RMCP+ protocol.

The aTCA-9700 supports SOL on the Base Interface which is powered by the Intel 82576 Gigabit Ethernet Controller. The Intel 82576 Gigabit Ethernet Controller is connected to the IPMC (Smart Fusion A2F500) via the NC-SI interface, which provides remote management capability before the payload power is authorized. Users can use the SOL feature to transmit/receive serial console message from a remote site with full console management functionality.

The aTCA-9700 supports 2 channels (channel 1/2) and 2 user IDs for SOL. You can refer to the following sections for more detailed information.

Note: SOL does not support simultaneous login of more than one user.

# 7.1 Preparation For SOL Connection

First of all, you need to prepare a remote client with Linux OS and connect to the network.

# 7.2 Configure The Remote Client

# 7.2.1 Install IPMItool For The Remote Client

You can download the latest IPMItool and document from the following website http://IPMItool.sourceforge.net

Click on either the \*bz or \*gz version of IPMItool to download the bzipped or gzipped IPMItool source code tarball respectively.

To build IPMItool, unzip and untar the downloaded IPMItool package, configure IPMItool for your system, and change to the created IPMItool directory to build IPMItool.

Example using the gzipped tarball:

tar xvzf IPMItool\*.tar.gz cd IPMItool\*

Run the following to configure IPMItool for your system: ./configure

Build the source code and install IPMItool:

make make install

Now your remote client is ready to connect to the target the aTCA-9700.

Note: The install must be run with root permissions to overlay the existing IPMItool utility in /usr/local/bin.

# 7.3 Configure The Target aTCA-9700

# 7.3.1 BIOS Configuration

You can refer to section 6.3.8/6.3.9 to enable Serial Port Console Redirection on COM0

Note: The aTCA-9700 supports SOL on COM0 only

# 7.3.2 Linux grub Setting

GRUB supports sending its messages to the serial console. The following lines should be added to the top of the /boot/grub/grub.conf file.

```shell
default=1
timeout=5
serial --unit=1 --speed=115200 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1
terminal --timeout=15 serial console
```

The following parameters need to be passed to each instance of the Linux kernel. They should be added to the kernel line.

```javascript
console=tty0 console=ttyS1,115200n8
```

An example is shown below:

```txt
title SOL (2.6.18-128.el5)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-128.el5 ro root=LABEL=/ console=tty0
console=ttyS1,115200n8
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.18-128.el5.img
```

# 7.3.3 Linux System Setting

Linux needs to be told to listen for logins on the serial port. This is done by adding the following line to /etc/inittab.

Add the following line to the init configuration file /etc/inittab.

s1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty –L ttyS1 115200 vt100

Now the target aTCA-9700 is ready for SOL connection.

# 7.4 Establish SOL Connection

Execute the following command from your remote client to establish the SOL Connection Command:

ipmitool -I lanplus -H &lt;Target IPMC IP &gt; -C &lt; Cipher Suite Id &gt; -U &lt;User Name&gt; -P &lt;Password&gt; sol activate

Note: Please refer to the following table for the Cipher Suite Id

<table><tr><td>ID</td><td>characteristics</td><td>Cipher Suite</td><td>Authentication Algorithm</td><td>Integrity Algorithm(s)</td><td>Confidentiality Algorithm(s)</td></tr><tr><td>0</td><td>“straight password”</td><td>00h, 00h, 00h</td><td>RAKP-none</td><td>None</td><td>None</td></tr><tr><td>1</td><td>S</td><td>01h, 00h, 00h</td><td rowspan="5">RAKP-HMAC-SHA1</td><td>None</td><td>None</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>S, A</td><td>01h, 01h, 00h</td><td rowspan="4">HMAC-SHA1-96</td><td>None</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>S, A, E</td><td>01h, 01h, 01h</td><td>AES-CBC-128</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>S, A, E</td><td>01h, 01h, 02h</td><td>xRC4-128</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>S, A, E</td><td>01h, 01h, 03h</td><td>xRC4-40</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>S</td><td>02h, 00h, 00h</td><td rowspan="9">RAKP-HMAC-MD5</td><td>None</td><td>None</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>S, A</td><td>02h, 02h, 00h</td><td rowspan="4">HMAC-MD5-128</td><td>None</td></tr><tr><td>8</td><td>S, A, E</td><td>02h, 02h, 01h</td><td>AES-CBC-128</td></tr><tr><td>9</td><td>S, A, E</td><td>02h, 02h, 02h</td><td>xRC4-128</td></tr><tr><td>10</td><td>S, A, E</td><td>02h, 02h, 03h</td><td>xRC4-40</td></tr><tr><td>11</td><td>S, A</td><td>02h, 03h, 00h</td><td rowspan="4">MD5-128</td><td>None</td></tr><tr><td>12</td><td>S, A, E</td><td>02h, 03h, 01h</td><td>AES-CBC-128</td></tr><tr><td>13</td><td>S, A, E</td><td>02h, 03h, 02h</td><td>xRC4-128</td></tr><tr><td>14</td><td>S, A, E</td><td>02h, 03h, 03h</td><td>xRC4-40</td></tr><tr><td>80h-BFh</td><td>OEM specified</td><td>OEM specified</td><td>OEM specified</td><td>OEM specified</td><td>OEM specified</td></tr><tr><td>C0h-FFh</td><td>reserved</td><td>-</td><td>-</td><td>-</td><td>-</td></tr></table>
