IPMI Controller:
 IPMI Message Protocol
11-21
Event-generating sensors with a Threshold Event/Reading Type (0x01) initiate an event 
message when a sensor reading crosses the defined threshold. The default thresholds for a 
particular sensor are retrieved by sending the Zircon PM a Get Sensor Thresholds com-
mand. The system management controller must send the Zircon PM a Get Sensor Reading 
command to retrieve the current sensor reading. (See the IPMI specification listed in 
 for further details regarding these commands.)
ProcWatchdog is a Watchdog 2 Type (0x23) sensor. It generates an event when the 
750GL1_WD_LATCH signal (see 
) for a particular sensor is asserted. A timeout in 
the watchdog mechanism of the Marvell system controller asserts this signal. An associated 
de-assertion event occurs when the system software on the Katana
and the 750GL1_WD_LATCH signal has been cleared.
On the Katana
752i, sensor number 0x70 is a System Firmware Progress sensor. This type 
of sensor (0x0F) generates events to communicate Power On Self-Test (POST) and boot 
failures. 
 shows the OEM values defined for the data associated with this type of 
sensor.
