3.0 Software Specifications
3.1 Operating System
The CMM runs a customized version of embedded BlueCat* Linux* 4.0 on an Intel
®
80200
processor with Intel XScale
®
technology. Development support for BlueCat Linux* is available on
the web at http://www.lynuxworks.com
.
3.2 Command Line Interface (CLI)
The Command Line Interface (CLI) connects to and communicates with the intelligent
management devices of the chassis, boards and the CMM itself. The CLI is an IPMI-based library
of commands that can be accessed directly or through a higher-level management application.
Administrators can access the CLI through Telnet or the CMM's serial port. Using the CLI, users
can access information about the current state of the system including current sensor values,
threshold settings, recent events, and overall chassis health.
3.3 SNMP/UDP
The chassis management module supports both queries and traps on SNMP v1 or v3. The SNMP
version can be configured through the CLI interface. The default is for SNMP v1. A MIB for the
entire platform is included with the CMM.
Along with SNMP traps, the CMM sends UDP alerts to port 10000. The content of these UDP
alerts is the same as the SNMP traps.
3.4 Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Interface
In addition to the console command-line interface, the CMM can be administered by custom
remote applications via remote procedure calls (RPC).
3.5 Ethernet Interfaces
Eth1 is the Ethernet port going to the backplane on the CMM. Eth1 should remain static at all
times. It is through this port that synchronization will be attempted initially. For synchronization to
occur on eth1, both Ethernet switches must be present in the chassis.
Eth1:1 is a an IP address used to connect to the active CMM at any time through the chassis
backplane and therefore should remain static. Eth1:1 is a static alias of eth1 defined in the
/etc/ifcfg-eth1 file as STATICIP2. Because this IP address is synced between the two CMMs, it
should only be changed on the active CMM. See Section 7.3.1, “Setting IP Address Properties” on
page 54 on how to set the eth1:1 IP address.
Eth0 is the Ethernet interface on the front of the CMM that can connect to an external or private
management network through a switch or through a crossover to the other CMM. This is used if no
Ethernet switches are available in the chassis. Eth0 can be set to static or DHCP.
