Intel® Server Board SE7320SP2 & Intel Server Board SE7525GP2 TPS Platform Management
Revision 2.0
126
5.3.6.1 mBMC FRU Inventory Area Format
The mBMC FRU inventory area format follows the Platform Management FRU Information
Storage Definition. Refer to Platform Management FRU Information Storage Definition, Version
1.0 for details.
The mBMC provides only low-level access to the FRU inventory area storage. It does not
validate or interpret the data that are written. This includes the common header area.
Applications cannot relocate or resize any FRU inventory areas.
The server board’s FRU information is kept in the mBMC internal flash memory.
5.4 Sensors
5.4.1 Sensor Type Codes
The following tables list the sensor identification numbers and information regarding the sensor
type, name, supported thresholds, assertion and deassertion information, and a brief description
of the sensor purpose. Refer to the Intelligent Platform Management Interface Specification,
Version 1.5, for sensor and event/reading-type table information.
• Sensor Type
The Sensor Type references the values enumerated in the Sensor Type Codes table in
the IPMI specification. It provides the context in which to interpret the sensor, e.g., the
physical entity or characteristic that is represented by this sensor.
• Event/Reading Type
The Event/Reading Type references values from the Event/Reading Type Code Ranges
and Generic Event/Reading Type Codes tables in the IPMI specification. Note that digital
sensors are a specific type of discrete sensors, which have only two states.
• Event Offset/Triggers
Event Thresholds are supported event generating thresholds for threshold types of
sensors.
- [u,l][nr,c,nc] upper nonrecoverable, upper critical, upper noncritical, lower
nonrecoverable, lower critical, lower noncritical
- uc, lc upper critical, lower critical
Event Triggers are supported event generating offsets for discrete type sensors. The
offsets can be found in the Generic Event/Reading Type Codes or Sensor Type Codes
tables in the IPMI specification, depending on whether the sensor event/reading type is
generic or a sensor specific response.
• Assertion/Deassertion Enables
Assertions and Deassertion indicators reveals the type of events the sensor can
generate:
- As: Assertions
- De: Deassertion
