День добрый!

 

Имеем серверную платформу SR2612URR с установленным контроллером LSI 9361-8i. В платформе и контроллере зашиты последние bios. При попытки перепрошить HSC получаю сообщение об ошибке:

 

Loading IPMI drivers: .\ipmi.efi

Warning: No SMBIOS entry for KCS address - using fixed value of 0xCA2

Loading DRI217.hex

Error 005: Update failure.

 

В логе видно что прошивальщик не находит корзину.

 

При попытке шить через adapteс 5805 та же ошибка@

 

Началась данная история после установки в него новых HDD от HGST HUS726020AL5214 в которых производитель добавил функцию Power Disable Feature.

https://www.hgst.com/sites/default/files/resources/HGST-Power-Disable-Pin-TB.pdf

Данные HDD без манипуляций просто не запускаются в корзине. При отключении 3го контакта, на питании, HDD запускаются. Надеюсь после обновления FW корзины данная проблема уйдет….

How to clear UEFI secure boot keys (or enter Setup Mode) on S1200SPO

February 19, 2018, 12:48 pm

I have a S1200SPO with a Xeon E3-1270v6 with versions:

IFWI: S1200SP.86B.BR.64.2017.39.3.01.0729.selfboot

BIOS: S1200SP.86B.03.01.0026.092720170729

 

I'd like to clear the installed UEFI secure boot keys, which requires entering Setup Mode. I can't seem to enter Setup Mode. Under Boot Maintenance Manager, under secure boot, all I can do is enable or disable secure boot. I'm using the KeyTool.efi (part of efitools) and I can verify that the board is in User Mode, which doesn't allow me to clear the PK.

 

Is there a way to do this from the BIOS? (maybe a different BIOS version?)

 

Can I do this somehow by modifying SPI flash directly? I have access to the board and tools to read/write SPI flash.

 

Thanks,

 

Josh

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?

How to clear UEFI secure boot keys (or enter Setup Mode) on S1200SP

We have the same problem as described in How to clear UEFI secure boot keys (or enter Setup Mode) on S1200SPO

 

We are also interested in using secure boot to protect the boot-process of our appliances. All our appliances run the same Linux kernel, and that Linux kernel is the only thing the appliance should run, so it makes sense to set up our own PKI infrastructure for signing.

 

I am currently testing with a S1200SP (R1304SPOSHORR) with BIOS version S1200SP.86B.03.01.0038.062620180344.

 

When I booted the system for the first time, it was in Setup Mode. This would have been a good moment to install our own PK. After enabling secure mode, the default Intel and Microsoft keys were installed.

 

When I disabled secure boot again, the Intel PK was still there and there doesn't seem to be a way to remove that key to return to Setup Mode. (according to most Google hits, there should be an option to clear all secure mode keys, or an option to force Setup Mode)

 

 

Is there a way to remove the key and/or do a factory reset of the whole system?

How to set up new RPM range for CPU FANs?

October 23, 2018, 5:48 am

Recently, I replaced CPU fans on my server machine

The system  became much more silent.

However under load system do not increase RPM and do not reduce when system is idle.

 

 

I benchmark my system with CPU-Z

When CPU reached the temperature 77C the CPU load drops instead of increasaing RPM

Meanwhile, at CPU temperature 35C and below the FAN RPMs still remains the same

 

I tried to change FAN profile in BIOS - it didn't help. RPM remains the same.

 

The question is how to regulate RPM efficiently?

Is there some tool or setting to change RPM range and CPU-FAN-RPM(from-CPU-temperature) dependency

 

I have P4308CP4MHGC chassis with S2600CP2 Distil 5 motherboard

   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

I installed on a S2600WTTR (Bios: SE5C610.86B.01.01.0027.071020182329 / CPU Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2660 v4 @ 2.00GHz)

ESXi 6.7. (6.7.0 (Build 10176752))

Now i see that some Sensors are unknown.

 

 

But on the VMWare Compatibility Guid the System shod be ESXi 6.7 compliant:

 

Intel S2600WTT Intel Xeon E5-2600-v4 Series ESXi 6.7,ESXi 6.5 U2,ESXi 6.5 U1,ESXi 6.5,ESXi 6.0 U3,ESXi 6.0 U2,ESXi 6.0 U1

Which of SDRs are installed by default?

Latest BIOS update on my S2600CP2 board made PSU FAN run at max speed.
As I already know it is the signal of some hardware fault.

 

Further investigation gave me the result, that HW failure happened at SDR update. However I don't know which records exactly are faulty.

 

I know, that there are 2 options of SDR saving to the board from EFI shell.

 

1. frusdr /sdr s2600cp.sdr (With this option only 60 records are saved to the board) -  PSU FAN is quiet

2. frusdr /cfg master.cfg (With this option 217 records are saved) - PSU FAN is loud

 

Looking at the  master.cfg file I found, that frusdr utility in both cases read s2600cp file and saves not all records to the board

Only the records which have corresponding tags (_SDR_TAG "NAME" ) in .sdr file

Selected tag names list is defined (or built) by master.cfg file.

 

SDR tags set is set according to master.cfg script with SET and CLEAR instructions.

By the menus and autodetection comands tags set is constructed before SDR records saved to the board.

 

If I save SDR with frusdr /sdr s2600cp command the 60 saved records correspond to come predefined tag list.

Which is this tag list ?

Hello!

We have another server with this strange issue.

 

Server started to give RAID card overheating errors. But in reality it is not true.

We changed RAID card to a new one - still the same problem.

Motherboard is S2600CW2.

 

 

RAID controller logs attached. and RAID controller FW is the latest available.

 

How to fix it?

 

P.S::

We had familiar problem with S2600WT board and problem started in the same way but then another problem appeared with battery controller.

RS3DC040 RAID controller started to beep with battery module

How to monitor CPU FAN RPM?

I run CPU-Z stress test and coretemp utility to monitor CPU temperature

 

I observe that the CPU 2 has higher temperature than CPU1

The difference is about 15 celcius

Visually, seems that CPU_FAN_2 rotates slower than CPU_FAN_1

But I need to confirm it by viewing some utility.

 

The issue is that SpeedFAN utility doesn't detect any FAN in the system

Intel Extreme Tuning Utility doesn't display FAN RPM.

 

Is there another way to monitor CPU FANs?
