Description
You can select how you want to monitor the sensors.
Direct Monitoring of sensors on the I2C bus (needs PMCP files)
Monitoring via External BMC (needs IPMB connection)
If being monitored by an external BMC, you will need to provide the slave
address so that the MegaRAC® G4 card will be able to read data from the
onboard BMC on the motherboard/ server board. 0x20 is the address most
commonly used.
Select the Soft Processor (SP) File with the BIN file extension.
Select the SDR File with the BIN file extension.
Select this option if the SDR and Soft Processor (SP) File are already loaded
on the card and you want to have it replaced with the new file.
Use this button to look for the SDR and Soft Processor (SP) File.
Use this button to save your settings.
