ANIC Onboard Sensors
Accolade provides hardware adapters which are inserted into a PCIe slot of any industry standard server. Unfortunately, occasional hardware failure is a fact of life which cannot be totally avoided. However, providing a warning is often enough to head off any serious problem. With that in mind, we have implemented advanced onboard sensors that are incorporated into each adapter.
A variety of information is provided with respect to the condition of the ANIC hardware itself. Some of the information is available via LEDs on the front panel of the adapter and other information via the software API. The following is a sample of information provided:
- Optical interface (e.g. SFP, CFP) temperature
- FPGA temperature
- PCB temperature (multiple readings from different locations)
- Optical power (e.g. SFP, CFP)
- Ethernet link status
- Time synchronization status
