752i User’s Manual
11-21
Event-generating sensors with a Threshold Event/Reading Type (0x01) initiate an event
message when a sensor reading crosses the defined threshold. The default thresholds for a
particular sensor are retrieved by sending the Zircon PM a Get Sensor Thresholds com-
mand. The system management controller must send the Zircon PM a Get Sensor Reading
command to retrieve the current sensor reading. (See the IPMI specification listed in
Table 1-2 for further details regarding these commands.)
ProcWatchdog is a Watchdog 2 Type (0x23) sensor. It generates an event when the
750GL1_WD_LATCH signal (see
Table 11-1) for a particular sensor is asserted. A timeout in
the watchdog mechanism of the Marvell system controller asserts this signal. An associated
de-assertion event occurs when the system software on the Katana
®
752i has recovered
and the 750GL1_WD_LATCH signal has been cleared.
On the Katana
®
752i, sensor number 0x70 is a System Firmware Progress sensor. This type
of sensor (0x0F) generates events to communicate Power On Self-Test (POST) and boot
failures.
Table 11-18 shows the OEM values defined for the data associated with this type of
sensor.
