How Chassis Management Improves OpenVPX System Development
Eletter ProductChassis Managers have three primary functions to help keep systems healthy, manage system power and ensure proper cooling.
VITA 46.11 defines a chassis management architecture for OpenVPX that provides automated oversight and administration tools, which serve to provide better insights into a system’s health. As more intelligent monitoring functions are implemented into OpenVPX applications, the need to properly enable smooth system operation and resource management becomes more important.
A Chassis Manager has three primary functions to help keep systems healthy, manage system power and ensure proper cooling. Other components include:
- IMPI, Intelligent Platform Management Interface
- IPMB, Intelligent Platform Management Bus
- IMPC, Intelligent Management Interface Controller
