Chapter 4. BIOS Update Utility The flash ROM contains system initialization routines, the BIOS Setup Utility, and runtime support routines. The exact layout is subject to change, as determined by BIOS. The flash ROM also con- tains initialization code in compressed form for onboard peripherals, like SCSI, NIC and video con- trollers.
BIOS Update Utility 4.1. BIOS Update Utility Server platforms support the DOS-based, Windows-based, and Linux-based firmware update utili- ty. This utility loads a fresh copy of the BIOS into the flash ROM. The BIOS update may affect the following items: •...
BIOS Update Utility 4.2. Recovery Mode Recovery process can be initiated by setting the recovery jumper. At startup BIOS detects the re- covery jumper position and starts to execute the recovery code. BIOS consists of the following three sections: Main BIOS, NVRAM, and Boot Block Recovery. The Main BIOS section will be updated during the recovery procedure.
BIOS Update Utility 4.3. Recovery Flow The BIOS recovery procedure is as follows: 1. Get the BIOS image file from the following web address: support@netberg.ru [mailto:support@netberg.ru]. 2. Plug in a removable USB disk. 3. Save the BIOS image file into the USB mass storage disk.
BIOS Update Utility The recovery process is complete when the following message appears on the screen: Figure 4.2. BIOS Recovery Completed 9. Power off the system and disconnect all peripherals. 10. S et the recovery jumper back to the initial position. 11. P ower on the system. The system will start with the recovered BIOS.
Chapter 5. Server Management The BIOS supports many standard-based server management features and several proprietary features. The Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) is an industry standard and defines standardized, abstracted interfaces to platform management hardware. The BIOS implements many proprietary features that are allowed by the IPMI specification, but these features are outside the scope of the IPMI specification.
Server Management 5.1. Console Redirection The BIOS supports redirection of both video and keyboard via a serial link (serial port). When con- sole redirection is enabled, the local, or host server, keyboard input and video output are passed both to the local keyboard and video connections, and to the remote console through the serial link.
Server Management 5.2. Serial Configuration Settings For optimal configuration of Serial Over LAN or EMP see the BMC Specification. The BIOS does not require that the splash logo be turned off for console redirection to function. The BIOS supports multiple consoles, some of which are in graphics mode and some in text mode.
Server Management 5.3. Keystroke Mapping During console redirection, the remote terminal sends keystrokes to the local server. The remote terminal can be a dumb terminal with a direct connection and running a communication program. The keystroke mapping follows VT-UTF8 format with the following extensions. Table 5.1. Keystroke mappings ANSI ESCAPE SEQUENCE WINDOWS PLATFORM...
Server Management 5.4. Interface to Server Management If the BIOS determines that console redirection is enabled, it will read the current baud rate and pass this value to the appropriate management controller via the Intelligent Platform Management Bus (IPMB).
Server Management 5.5. PXE BIOS Support The BIOS supports the EFI PXE implementation. To utilize this, the user must load EFI Simple Network Protocol driver and the UNDI driver specific for the network interface card being used. The UNDI driver should be included with the network interface card. The Simple Network Protocol driver can be obtained from http://developer.intel.com/technology/framework.
Server Management 5.6. Checkpoints A checkpoint is either a byte or word value output to SuperIO printer port. The BIOS outputs checkpoints throughout bootblock and Power-On Self Test (POST) to indicate the task the system is currently executing. Checkpoints are very useful in aiding software developers or technicians in debugging problems that occur during the pre-boot process.

Server Management Software 6.5. LAN Interface BMC LAN interface in AST2400 is assigned to its Shared NIC LAN (Default) and a dedicated NIC. IPMI Specification v2.0 defines how IPMI messages, encapsulated in RMCP/RMCP+ packet for- mat, can be sent to and from the BMC. This capability allows a remote console application to ac- cess the BMC and perform the following operations: •...
Server Management Software 6.7. Time Sync In BMC design, BMC does not have a local RTC to know what time it is. Each time the server pow- ers on, BIOS will use Set SEL Time command to initialize BMC time. The remote console program interpret this time as pre-initial.
Server Management Software 6.8. SEL BMC supports IPMI 1.5/2.0 standard SEL operation. It can keep SEL log. Event happened in BIOS side will be logged by using Add SEL Entry command. BMC will store them in FLASH, the time stamp field will be filled by BMC. When SEL is full, the new SEL won’t be logged but will go through PEF as usual.
Server Management Software 6.9. Platform Event 6.9.1. Platform Event Filter The BMC implements selectable action on an event or LAN alerting base on event. By default, no any PEF entries or actions exist, applications need to configure it to enable. •...

Server Management Software 6.12. Watchdog For the BIOS and OS Agent watchdog, this system adopts a standard design as specified IPMI 1.5. 6.12.1. Pre-Timeout Interrupt Support For the watchdog pre-timeout’s interrupt, BMC supports SMI and NMI. SMI is used in BIOS imple- mentation already, so using the watchdog with pre-timeout SMI is not recommended.
Server Management Software 6.13. IPMI 1.5 / 2.0 Command Support List This chapter lists all IPMI 1.5 / 2.0 mandatory and optional command support. For more detailed information please refer to the core IPMI Commands Support document.
