S2600WF0 SysCfg : set Fan PWM Offset

Hello,

 

we've got a couple of hundreds of Intel S2600WF0 servers. BIOS/ME/BMC/FRUSDR are all the latest:

BIOS Version Information:

-------------------------

   Primary BIOS Version:... SE5C620.86B.00.01.0014.070920180847

   Secondary BIOS Version:. SE5C620.86B.00.01.0014.070920180847

   BIOS Boot Region:....... Primary Boot

 

BMC Firmware Version:

---------------------

   Op Code:........... 1.60.56383BEF

 

ME Firmware Version:.. 04.00.04.340

 

SDR Version:.......... SDR Package 1.60

 

Baseboard Information:

----------------------

   Base Board ID:..... S2600WF0

   Asset Tag Name:.... Base Board Asset Tag

 

System Information:

----------------------

   Manufacturer Name:. Intel Corporation

   Product Name:...... S2600WF0

   Version Number:.... ..

 

Chassis Information:

----------------------

   Manufacturer Name:. ...............................

   Chassis Type:...... Rack Mount Chassis

   Asset Tag Name:.... ....................

 

Also have the latest SysCfg: System Configuration Utility Version 14.1 Build 21

OS: Debian 9 'Stretch' 64bit

 

We'd like to be able to change the Fan PWM Offset using the SysCfg utility, but it's not working:

$ sudo /usr/bin/syscfg/syscfg /bcs "" "Fan PWM Offset" 100

BIOS Variable 'Fan PWM Offset' not found

 

However, the fan profile can be changed:

$ sudo /usr/bin/syscfg/syscfg /bcs "" "Set fan profile" 1

 

Successfully Completed

 

If I save all the settings with sudo /usr/bin/syscfg/syscfg /s /f /b, then the resulting syscfg.INI file doesn't have anything about Fan PWM Offset, it only has the Set Fan Profile in the System Acoustic and Performance Configuration group:

[BIOS::Advanced::USB Configuration]

Device Reset Timeout=20 seconds                    ;Options: 10 seconds=00: 20 seconds=01: 30 seconds=02: 40 seconds=03

 

[BIOS::Advanced::System Acoustic and Performance Configuration]

Set Fan Profile=Performance                        ;Options: Performance=01: Acoustic=02

 

[BIOS::Security]

Front Panel Lockout=Disabled                       ;Options: Disabled=00: Enabled=01

 

Tried to insert Fan PWM Offset=100 into the [BIOS::Advanced::System Acoustic and Performance Configuration] group and the restore the syscfg.INI file with the restore option of syscfg. The utility said the restore was successful, but the Fan PWM Offset change didn't effect, the BIOS showed the old value (0). We'd like to avoid manually changing this on hundreds of servers obviously.


Also tried to downgrade BIOS/BMC to the previous version. With the old BIOS/BMC syscfg was able read the Fan PWM Offset value (i.e. sudo /usr/bin/syscfg/syscfg /d biossettings "Fan PWM Offset" was working), but unable to write it.
According to the release notes of latest BIOS the Fan PWM Offset should work with SysCfg: https://downloadmirror.intel.com/28252/eng/Release%20Notes.txt

See: HSD-ES:1504762466, BIOS Change for #CCB 2083[Syscfg tool]Add option to configure fan pwm offset in syscfg

 

How to change the fan pwm offset? Please help!

Hi all,

 

I would like to know about the technical specifications about this product

https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/intel/xeon_gold/6138p

which is the Intel Xeon Scalable processor with integrated FPGA.

  • What is the amount of cache memory in the FPGA?
  • Is the last level cache in the processor is shared with the FPGA?
  • What is the UPI read and write latency?

 

Thanks in advance!

I has R1208WFTYS platform with S2600WT motherboard, with installed AXXRMM4LTE2 module. Yesterday was BMC version 1.29 and BIOS version 01.0009.
I apply two upgrades by USB stick and EFI shell from Intel firstly S2600WF_SFUP_BIOSR0013_ME04.00.04.294.0_BMC1.43.91f76955_FRUSDR1.43.zip, then S2600WF_SFUP_BIOSR0014_ME04.00.04.340.0_BMC1.60.56383bef_FRUSDR1.60.zip
Now BMC version 1.60, BIOS version 01.0014, in RMM4 shown

BIOS ID : SE5C620.86B.00.01.0014.070920180847

BMC FW Rev : 1.60.56383bef

 

Access to BMC throw BaseBoard, static IP

 

I enable KVM/Console redirection, then reboot server from OS, during reboot press F2 in KVM. View "Entering setup..." on KVM screen.... and then KVM fault!

I can't connect to RMM4, no https and KVM access. Techsupport from datacenter tell me, server in Setup mode.

 

As result, if I want change something in Setup by KVM I got full unavailable server and must call techsupport for reboot it. Seems, KVM with throw BaseBoard access disconnected from network during Entering setup.

 

Please, help me, I need access to Setup throw KVM remote console.

Intel RAID (RMS3CC080), how to "Online RAID Expansion", cant find it in BIOS or RWC3

Hi

 

We have a S1200SPOR with RMS3CC080, the below document on page 6 (real PDF page 16) says this controller (and all others that are 12Gb) will:

 

"Online capacity expansion to add space to an existing drive or a new drive"

"Online RAID level migration"

https://www.intel.com/content/dam/support/us/en/documents/server-products/raid-products/12G_RAID_Controllers_UG.pdf

 

Ive completed both of the above before with PROMISE controllers and LSI / AVAGO, however i can find anyway in the BIOS or with RWC3 (RAID Web Console 3) to do this, when i select the Virtual Drive there are no options to expand or change the RAID level.

 

So how is this done?

S2600GL CATERR Debugging

An S2600GL motherboard  in my possession died. I'm at a loss as to what went wrong. I understand that the support period is probably expired, not sure about my support options but i figured i'd reach out.

 

It appears none of the major rails have any issues, but I just get no CPU vcore (it's not shorted, i checked  =P), rest of the rails come up for about 0.6-0.9 seconds, it blips the CATERR LED twice, power cycles, then does it again.

 

Not sure how to continue without reversing the board and reading the C602 and relevant CPU datasheet. I thought it might be fun trying to go further, I figured it might be worthwhile gaining familiarity on a hardware/electrical level with intel server boards.

 

I enjoyed the level of documentation in the technical product specification, not sure whether there's any further board level information available. I'm curious as to why J4E2 is populated on both boards i have but does not appear to be mentioned anywhere?

 

I've used another board and verified the RAM, CPU's and PSU's are fine. BMC boots on the faulty board if that helps.

 

At a glance it appears the S2600WFQ, S2600WFT, S2600WF0 and S2600WT have the same/similar mechanical specifications? I'd like to confirm that's an upgrade path if boards keep dying?

 

Cheers.

We are using intel server board S2600WT with the BMC configuration.

 

In the BMC setup we can see that there is possibility to send some SNMP traps to external server.

 

Can we install any SNMP manager and receive those traps properly ? Do you have any MIB database for the OID's that can be send from BMC ?
