SHELF MANAGER
The Shelf Manager (SHmm) is the central management unit of the shelf and designed
specifically for the AdvancedTCA systems. Its purpose is to monitor, control and ensure
proper operation of the shelf and all other components of the Advanced TCA shelf. The shelf
manager reports anomalies and errors and takes corrective actions if required (for example,
increases the speed of the fans). Alarm states are displayed from the LEDs of the shelf’s
alarm panel. The shelf manager performs the following functions:
Retrieve FRU inventory information
Receive events from sensors of the shelf
Monitor and control the temperature of the shelf
Reports errors
Execute corrective actions
Manage interconnect resources to prevent damage of the blades due to hot swap
The shelf manager consists of two shelf manager modules (SHmms) located on the back of
the Ge
oProbe G10 (Figure 2.1).
