Sun Microsystems CP3260 Server User Manual


 
Appendix B Sun OEM IPMI Commands B-5
Note As of the R3U2 release, Netra CP3260 sysfw 7.2.1 has graceful shutdown
support.
Note To use the graceful shutdown effectively, users must determine a
component’s shutdown time “cost,” which depends on hardware, software, and
configuration. For example, the default 120 seconds could be too short for a Sun
Netra CP3260 blade server with a heavy I/O configuration. Conversely, it could be
too long for a Sun Netra CP3220 blade server. Ignorance of the shutdown time could
cause a panic during graceful shutdown.
For more information, refer to the following documentation:
Netra CT 900 Server Administration and Reference Manual (819-1177) for ShMM
commands.
Netra CT 900 Software Developer’s Guide (819-1178) for IPMI commands.
Even if you are using a third-party chassis, the commands and options apply, and
these documents are available online:

B.4 Send Sensor State Command
Send Sensor State is used by the firmware progress sensor or any other sensor
that intends to send sensor states to the IPM controller (IPMC). The IPMC uses this
information to put a sensor in the correct state and send the event data to the system
event log.
