HOST POST Code

last POST code is on port 80h. BMC is able to trace the POST codes via port 80h to figure
out the cause of issue happened.

BMC Watchdog for System
Software watchdog can be used for a number of system timeout functions by system
management or by BIOS. For example, the common BIOS restarts the system after a
timeout to avoid bringing the whole system to a standstill. If software watchdog is
triggered, the following actions are available:
•
System reset
•
System power off
•
System power cycle
•
BMC will record SEL, when BMC watchdog works.
