How to refresh BMC under DOS:
a ) Download the latest DOS upgrade tool package from the FTP directory where the
version is located, such as socflash_v11101 (if there is a newer version, please use the
latest version);
b) Unzip the tool package and put it in the same path as the bin file, and rename the bin
file to xxx.bin;
c ) Boot into DOS, enter the directory where the tool and bin files are located, and execute
socflash if=xxx.bin to refresh the BMC
2. How to refresh BMC under Linux (64 bit ):
a ) Download the latest Linux upgrade tool package from the FTP directory where the
version is located, such as lxflash_v11101 (if there is a newer version, please use the latest
version);
b) Unzip the tool package and put it in the same path as the bin file, and rename the bin
file to xxx.bin;
c ) Boot into Linux , enter the directory where the tool and bin files are located, and
execute ./socflash_64.sh if=xxx.bin to refresh the BMC
Note : The following is only used to illustrate the writing method. The
specific writing content should be adjusted according to actual needs.
1. Write FRU under DOS
Copy all files in the FRU_tool/DOS folder to the DOS boot disk and boot into DOS;
execute the .bat batch script under DOS
(For general products, execute Standard.bat ; for Barebone products, execute
Barebone.bat )
Method 2: Use the IPMICFG tool to manually modify the Board Manufacture, Board Product
Name, Product Manufacture, Product Name, Product Version and other fields in the FRU
For example:
Board Manufacture is changed to Inspur or NULL
Board Product Name is changed to Zhenzhu or NULL
Product Manufacture is changed to Inspur or NULL
Change Product Name to NF5270 M4 or NULL
Product Version changed to 01
IPMICFG -fru BPN Zhenzhu or NULL
IPMICFG -fru BM Inspur or NULL
IPMICFG –fru PN NF5270M4 or NULL
IPMICFG –fru PM Inspur or NULL
IPMICFG -fru PV 01
2. Write FRU under Linux
Copy all files in the FRU_tool/Linux folder to the Linux system;
Method 1: Directly execute the .sh script in Linux
(General products execute Standard.sh ; Barebone products execute Barebone.sh )
Method 2: Use the fru-change tool to manually modify the Board Manufacture, Board
Product Name, Product Manufacture, Product Name, Product Version, and other fields in the
FRU
For example:
Board Manufacture is changed to Inspur or NULL
Board Product Name is changed to Zhenzhu or NULL
Product Manufacture is changed to Inspur or NULL
Change Product Name to NF5270 M4 or NULL
Product Version changed to 01
./fru-change_x64 -kcs BP Zhenzhu or NULL
./fru-change_x64 -kcs BM Inspur or NULL
./fru-change_x64 -kcs PN NF5270M4 or NULL
./fru-change_x64 -kcs PM Inspur or NULL
./fru-change_x64 -kcs PV 01
Modify power configuration via ipmitool (Linux)
Single power: ipmitool raw 0x3a 0x92 0x01 0x01
Dual power : ipmitool raw 0x3a 0x92 0x01 0x02
Get the number of configured power supplies: ipmitool raw 0x3a 0x92 0x00. The last digit
of the return value is 1 for single power supply and 2 for dual power supply.
Modify the cooling policy through ipmitool (Linux)
Note :
1. Select fan strategy based on different shipping configurations
2. (Special Strategy 2 is the on/off switch of Sangfor's fan control strategy. First
run the "Special Strategy 2 On" command, then run the strategy you want to
use. If you do not use Special Strategy 2, use the "Special Strategy 2 Off"
command to turn it off.)
3. (The " Get current cooling strategy type " command takes effect : After
refreshing the BMC for the first time, you need to execute the "Special
strategy 2" command to write to eeprom to take effect )
4. Configuration description of heat dissipation strategy :
Note: When there is a rear hard disk, the system adds a fan 0 ; the system no longer
distinguishes the number of front hard disks .
Strategy 02: No rear hard disk configuration
Strategy 03: The rear hard disk is configured as SATA SSD (the system has a rear hard
disk, and the rear hard disk type is SATA SSD)
Strategy 04: Special type of boards support PCIESSD and have no rear hard disk; if
there are other application configurations, the requirements will be issued through review.
Strategy 05: Special type boards support PCIESSD, and the rear hard disk type is SATA
SSD; if there are other application configurations, the requirements will be issued through
review.
Strategy 0 8 : The rear hard disk is a mechanical hard disk configuration: The rear hard
disk type is SATA or sas mechanical hard disk, and the board type is not limited
Strategy 06: Open Special Strategy 2 (Sangfor customized low CPU temperature
version)
Strategy 07: Disable special strategy 2 (Sangfor customized low CPU temperature
version)
Control configuration 1 (disabled) : ipmitool raw 0x3a 0x90 0x00
Control configuration 2 (not enabled): ipmitool raw 0x3a 0x90 0x0 1
Default control configuration ( no rear hard disk configuration ): ipmitool raw 0x3a 0x90
0x0 2
The rear hard disk is configured as SATA SSD : ipmitool raw 0x3a 0x90 0x0 3
Special strategy speed configuration -no rear hard disk : ipmitool raw 0x3a 0x90 0x04
Special strategy speed configuration -the rear hard disk is SATA SSD: ipmitool raw 0x3a
0x90 0x0 5
Special policy 2 is turned on: ipmitool raw 0x3a 0x90 0x0 6
Special policy 2 is disabled: ipmitool raw 0x3a 0x90 0x0 7
(Special Strategy 2 is the on/off switch of Sangfor's fan control strategy. First run the
"Special Strategy 2 On" command, then run the strategy you want to use. If you do not use
Special Strategy 2, use the "Special Strategy 2 Off" command to turn it off.)
The rear hard disk is a mechanical hard disk configuration: ipmitool raw 0x3a 0x90 0x08
Get the cooling configuration: ipmitool raw 0x3a 0x91
Get the current cooling policy type (return value 0-General 1- Sangfor ): ipmitool raw 0x3a
0x91 0x1
