Introduction The ATCA-MF106 consists of the dual ATmega IPMC as a front-end to the IPMB in the shelf, and the "Service Processor" based on a PowerQUICC, which provides the management functions. The ATCA-MF106 is designed for redundant operation in AdvancedTCA shelves. Usually, two ATCA-MF106 shelf managers are deployed in one shelf, one of which takes the role of active ATCA-MF106, the other acting as standby ready to take over in case of failure of the active one.
Introduction 1.2.2 Hub Hardware The ATCA-MF106 hub supports the following interfaces: One 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet uplink on the faceplate Two 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports, one to each shelf manager, routed via the backplane Two 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports, one to each blade’s base interface, routed via the ...

Hot swap states ATCA-MF106 Installation and Use (6806800M62C)
1.3.2.1 Remote HPI ATCA-MF106 provides HPI based utilities for remote accessing and remote management. HPI based utilities allows to retrieve, monitor and modify the attributes of the system. 'hpiipmi' is one of such utility in which the IPMI commands can be sent to a particular HPI resource.
It is recommended that the RMCP interface shall be used only for the Monitoring purposes. Below RMCP server is available for ATCA-MF106: Standard RMCP server included in the HPI daemon running on the active ATCA-MF106 In order to access the RMCP server you have to specify on the RMCP client side: IP address ...
The redundancy is provided by the shelf managers. The implemented redundancy mechanism is cold standby. In case of a failure, a failover is performed from the active to the standby shelf manager. This takes two seconds. ATCA-MF106 Installation and Use (6806800M62C)
Network Management The main tasks of the network management are the assignments of backplane and out-of-band IP addresses by the shelf manager and the switchover of IP addresses from the active to the backup device. ATCA-MF106 Installation and Use (6806800M62C)
The product has been designed to meet the directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS) Directive 2002/95/EC. The ATCA-MF106 can be operated from -5 ºC up to +55 ºC without forced cooling. ATCA-MF106 Installation and Use (6806800M62C)

Chapter 2 ATCA-MF106 Hardware Overview The ATCA-MF106 is compliant to PICMG 3.0 R3.0 (AdvancedTCA). The shelf manager and hub board is equipped with two backplane connectors. Figure 2-1 Hardware To prevent connector damage the alignment pin offers a guide rail to the slot and a coding mechanism to ensure the installation of the board in the matching slot.
Two 10/100 BaseT interfaces are connected to the backplane connector at the pins Eth1-Hub Tx/Rx and Eth2-Hub Tx/Rx. They route the base interface to the hubs of both the ATCA-MF106 which in turn are connected to the node blades in dual star topology. They are compliant with the PICMG 3.0 R3.0 specification (AdvancedTCA) for the base interface.
ATCA-MF106 Hardware 2.2.2 Redundancy Interfaces The ATCA-MF106 uses a private, redundant, high-speed, full duplex serial connection for heart beating and data replication between the two shelf managers. The redundancy interface is routed to the backplane via differential line LVDS transceivers. The physical interface of both channels is compliant with the PICMG 3.0 R3.0 (AdvancedTCA)
The board satisfies the standby power limit of 10 W for AdvancedTCA FRUs, even when supplying 4 W to external loads. Typical power consumption of the ATCA-MF106 board is 5 W. ATCA-MF106 Installation and Use (6806800M62C)
2.4.2 Power Supply Holdup The ATCA-MF106 complies with the requirements for board level voltage transients as described in chapter 4.1.4.3. of PICMG 3.0 (AdvancedTCA) specification. It satisfies the requirement of uninterrupted operation during a power failure of 5 ms, while supplying 4 W to external circuits.
ATCA-MF106 Hardware Gigabit Ethernet Hub The hub of the ATCA-MF106 is a managed Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet switch which provides the following ports: One 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet uplink on the faceplate Two 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports, one to each shelf manager ...
The faceplate mounting holes of the board are connected to frame ground. An ESD strip according to the AdvancedTCA specification PICMG 3.0 R3.0 for rear transition modules (RTMs) is provided at one edge of the PCB. ATCA-MF106 Installation and Use (6806800M62C)

AMC modules. It consists of a Firmware Upgrade Command-line Utility (FCU), flash device drivers, and specially prepared firmware recovery image files. The ATCA-MF106 ramdisk is upgraded using the flashcp utility instead of fcu.

Otherwise, you must specify a bank and a device. Note that on the ATCA-MF106 the U-Boot, DTB, Kernel, and Ramdisk are coupled, this means when you mark a U-Boot image for the next reboot, the other corresponding images are automatically marked as well.

Some FCU options can be combined. Some options are exclusive. The following list describes the valid option combinations: --full-upgrade --file=<filename> --full-upgrade --file=<filename> --target=xxxxxx --help --mark --bank=<bank-letter> --device=<device-id> --query --query --device=<device-id> --show --file=<filename> ATCA-MF106 Installation and Use (6806800M62C)
Page 76
When upgrading firmware, it is strongly recommended that you upgrade only one device at a time. While FCU performs many checks during upgrade to ensure success, if something goes wrong and both firmware banks become corrupted, the blade will be inoperable. ATCA-MF106 Installation and Use (6806800M62C)
Upgrading CPU Firmware Upgrading CPU Firmware Follow these steps to upgrade the CPU firmware (U-Boot): 1. Query the current and backup U-Boot firmware on the ATCA-MF106: # fcu -qd atca-mf106-cpu 2. Show the version of the new U-Boot image: # fcu -s -f /opt/bladeservices/rom/atca-mf106-cpu.fri 3.
The flashcp utility does not upgrade the backup bank, but it upgrades the currently selected bank. Also, the ramdisk must be copied to the ATCA-MF106 and placed into /usr/local/ directory in order to upgrade due to the size of the ramdisk image.

2. Mark the backup boot bank for next use after the next reboot. If Bank A is "Marked for next use", mark Bank 'B' for the next reboot. # fcu -mb B -d atca-mf106-cpu If Bank B is "Marked for next use", mark Bank 'A' for the next reboot.
Follow these steps to upgrade the IPMC firmware. The IPMC firmware becomes active immediately after the successful upgrade. 1. Copy the IPMC firmware file to the ATCA-MF106 in the /root directory. The firmware file is not stored within the ramdisk.
7. There may be changes to files normally stored in the persistent file area when upgrading. Refer to the ATCA-MF106 Release Notes for more information. If there are no files in the persistent file area that need to be saved across a reboot (i.e. user specific files or changes to configuration files), the persistent file area can be cleared later (before rebooting the Shelf Manager).

/usr/local/atca-mf106-kernel.fri rm /usr/local/ramdisk.image.gz 13. Clear the persistent file area or verify that necessary changes are made according to the ATCA-MF106 Release Notes.
