Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability (RAS)
Reliability, fault tolerance, and data integrity
The reliability of the OpenPower 720 system starts with reliable
components, devices, and subsystems. During the design and development
process, subsystems go through rigorous verification and integration
testing processes. During system manufacturing, systems go through a
thorough testing process to help ensure highest product quality.
The OpenPower 720 system L3 cache and system memory offer ECC (error
checking and correcting) fault-tolerant features. ECC is designed to
correct environmentally induced, single-bit, intermittent memory failures
and single-bit hard failures. With ECC, the likelihood of memory
failures will be substantially reduced. ECC also provides double-bit
memory error detection that helps protect data integrity in the event of
a double-bit memory failure. System memory also provides 4-bit packet
error detection that helps to protect data integrity in the event of a
DRAM chip failure. The system bus, I/O bus, and PCI buses are designed
with parity error detection.
Memory error correction extensions
The standard memory has single error-correct and double-error detect
ECC circuitry designed to correct single-bit memory failures. The
double-bit detection helps maintain data integrity by detecting and
reporting multiple errors beyond what the ECC circuitry can correct. The
memory chips are organized such that the failure of any specific memory
module only affects a single bit within an ECC word (bit scattering),
thus allowing for error correction and continued operation in the
presence of a complete chip failure (Chipkill recovery).
The memory also utilizes memory scrubbing and thresholding to
determine when spare memory modules within each bank of memory, if
available, should be used to replace ones that have exceeded their
threshold value (dynamic bit steering).
Redundancy for array self-healing
Although the most likely failure event in a processor is a soft
single-bit error in one of its caches, there are other events that can
occur, and they need to be distinguished from one another. For the L1,
L2, and L3 caches and their directories, hardware and firmware keep track
of whether permanent errors are being corrected beyond a threshold. If
exceeded, a deferred repair error log is created. Additional run-time
availability actions, such as CPU vary off(2) or L3 cache line delete,
are also initiated.
L1 and L2 caches and L2 and L3 directories on the POWER5 chip are
manufactured with spare bits in their arrays that can be accessed via
programmable steering logic to replace faulty bits in the respective
arrays. This is analogous to the redundant bit steering employed in main
storage as a mechanism to avoid physical repair, and is also implemented
in POWER5 systems. The steering logic is activated during processor
initialization and is initiated by the built-in system-test (BIST) at
power-on time.
L3 cache redundancy is implemented at the cache line level. Exceeding
correctable error thresholds while running causes a dynamic L3 cache line
delete function to be invoked.
Note: (2) Indicates that this RAS function is only available for a Linux
operating system running the 2.6 kernel.
Service Processor
A Service Processor included in the OpenPower 720 gives you an
immediate means to diagnose, check status, and sense operational
conditions of a remote system, even when the main processor is
inoperable.
The Service Processor enables firmware and operating system
surveillance, several remote power controls, environmental monitoring
(only critical errors are supported under Linux), reset, boot features,
remote maintenance, and diagnostic activities, including console
mirroring. The Service Processor can place calls to report surveillance
failures, critical environmental faults, and critical processing faults.
Fault monitoring functions
- BIST (built-in self-test) and POST (power-on self-test) check
processor, L3 cache, memory, and associated hardware required for proper
booting of the operating system, every time the system is powered on. If
a noncritical error is detected or if the errors occur in the resources
that can be removed from the system configuration, the booting process is
designed to proceed to completion. The errors are logged in the system
nonvolatile RAM (NVRAM).
- Disk drive fault tracking can alert the system administrator of an
impending disk failure before it impacts customer operation.
- The Linux log (where hardware and software failures are recorded and
analyzed by Error Log Analysis (ELA) routine) warns the system
administrator about the causes of system problems. This also enables IBM
service representatives to bring along probable replacement hardware
components when a service call is placed, thus minimizing system repair
time.
Mutual surveillance
The Service Processor can monitor the operation of the hypervisor. It
also allows the hypervisor to monitor for Service Processor activity.
The Service Processor can take appropriate action, including calling for
service, when it detects the hypervisor has lost control. Likewise, the
operating system can request a Service Processor reset or repair action,
if necessary.
Environmental monitoring functions
- Temperature monitoring increases the fan speed rotation when ambient
temperature is above the normal operating range.
- Temperature monitoring warns the system administrator of
environmental related-problems (for example, air conditioning and air
circulation around the system) so that appropriate corrective actions can
be taken before a critical failure threshold is reached. It also
performs an orderly system shutdown when the operating temperature
exceeds the critical level.
- Fan speed monitoring provides a warning and an orderly system
shutdown when the speed is out of operational specification.
- Voltage monitoring provides warning and an orderly system shutdown
when the voltages are out of operational specification.
Error handling and reporting
In the unlikely event of system hardware or environmentally induced
failure, the system run-time error capture capability systematically
analyzes the hardware error signature to determine the cause of failure.
The analysis result will be stored in system NVRAM. When the system can
be successfully rebooted, either manually or automatically, the error
will be reported to the Linux operating system. Error Log Analysis (ELA)
can be used to display the failure cause and the physical location of
failing hardware.
With the combination of the integrated Service Processor and
electronic Service Agent, the system can automatically send out an alert
via phone line to a pager or call for service in the event of critical
system failure (service processor notification) or a recoverable error
(electronic Service Agent notification). A hardware fault will also turn
on the two Attention Indicators (one located on the front of the system
unit and the other on the rear of the system unit) to alert the user of
an internal hardware problem. The indicator may also be set to identify
mode by the operator as a tool to allow system identification. For
identification, the indicators will flash, whereas the indicator will be
on solid when an error condition occurs.
Availability enhancement functions
- The auto-restart (reboot) option, when enabled, can reboot the system
automatically following an unrecoverable software error, software hang,
hardware failure, or environmentally induced (AC power) failure.
Serviceability
The OpenPower 720 is designed for customer setup of the machine and
for subsequent addition of most features (adapters/devices)(2) For a fee,
IBM Service can perform the installation.
- The OpenPower 720 allows customers to replace service parts (Customer
Replaceable Unit) if they want to. To accomplish this, the OpenPower 720
has incorporated LEDs that will indicate the parts needing to be
replaced. These LEDs are manually activated by selecting the component
to be replaced at the time of service and manually reset when the service
is completed.
- The OpenPower 720 allows support personnel to remotely log into a
system to review error logs and perform remote maintenance. The
OpenPower 720 Service Processor enables analysis of a system that will
not boot.
- The diagnostics consist of Stand-alone Diagnostics, which can be
loaded from the DVD-ROM drive.
- The System Management Services (SMS) error log is accessible from the
SMS menu for tests performed through SMS programs. The Service Processor
error log is accessible from the Service Processor menu for results of
Service Processor tests.
Note: (2) Indicates that this RAS function is only available for a Linux
operating system running the 2.6 kernel.
Service Agent
The Service Agent is available at no additional charge. When
installed on the IBM eServer, the Electronic Service Agent can enhance
IBM's ability to provide the system with maintenance service.
The Service Agent:
- Monitors for recoverable system errors, and if needed, can
automatically place a service call to IBM without customer intervention
- Can help reduce the effect of business disruptions due to unplanned
system outages and failures
- Performs problem analysis on a subset of hardware-related problems
and, with customer authorization, can report automatically the results to
IBM Service
The Service Processor
- Monitors for critical unrecoverable system errors and can
automatically place a service call to IBM without customer intervention.
- Can help reduce the effect of business disruptions due to
unrecoverable critical system outages.
