Relion 1900e/2900e Manual
Revision 1.0 68
This is a manual re-arm sensor that is rearmed on system resets and power-on (AC or DC power on
transitions).
7.3.11 Processor Sensors
The BMC provides IPMI sensors for processors and associated components, such as voltage regulators and
fans. The sensors are implemented on a per-processor basis.

Processor presence and fault state
Relative temperature reading by means of PECI
Processor VRD Over-Temperature
Indication
Yes
Discrete sensor that indicates a processor VRD has
crossed an upper operating temperature threshold
Yes
Threshold sensor that indicates a processor power-
good state
Processor Thermal Control
(PROCHOT#)
Yes

1 Processor Status Sensors
The BMC provides an IPMI sensor of type processor for monitoring status information for each processor
slot. If an event state (sensor offset) has been asserted, it remains asserted until one of the following
happens:
1. A Rearm Sensor Events command is executed for the processor status sensor.
2. AC or DC power cycle, system reset, or system boot occurs.
The
BMC provides system status indication to the front panel LEDs for processor fault conditions as listed in
following table.
CPU Presence status is not saved across AC power cycles and therefore will not generate a de-assertion after
cycling AC power.
Table 22. Processor Status Sensor Implementation
FRB2/Hang in POST failure
FRB3/Processor startup/initialization failure (CPU fails to start)
Configuration error (for DMI)
SMBIOS uncorrectable CPU-complex error
Processor presence detected
Terminator presence detected
Note:
1. Fault is not reflected in the processor status sensor.
7.3.11.2 Processor Population Fault (CPU Missing) Sensor
The BMC supports a Processor Population Fault sensor. This is used to monitor for the condition in which
processor sockets are not populated as required by the platform HW to allow power-on of the system.
