[Asterisk-Users] IBM x306

2005-09-24 Thread Marco Supino

Hi,

This is a little off-topic,but if someone has any info, it could help me 
a LOT!,


I am building an asterisk pbx (1.0.9) on an IBM x306 SCSI machine,my 
problem is that the BIOS assigns the same IRQ to the SCSI controller, 
and the TDM400P, i have tried several options of making the bios change 
the IRQ, but it will always move them together, anyone with some info 
about my options ?


Thanks,

Marco.

Linux usually don't care about Bios settings, you could try kernel cmdline
parameters. Acpi and IRQ are google terms for it.

Only one PCI slot can hold the full size card like the TDM400P , the 
other slot has a smaller opening on the case.

Hi,

I tried setpci INTERRUPT_LEVEL (or something similar, cant remmeber 
now), and also setpci seems like it changed the IRQ, lspci -v still 
shows the old IRQ

But it's the hardware (bios? interrupt controller) that sends the
interrupts in the first place. Right?

I am pretty sure you can set the IRQs in BIOS on the X306.  I looked at an
x305 quickly and you can go into BIOS, select advanced setup, then PNP/PCI
Options, change to manual and set your IRQs there.

Check the BIOS options -- many others in the x3nn Series as well as the 
Netfinity before them allow you to specify the IRQ per slot through a 
deeply buried BIOS config option. I'm not near my rack of IBM servers to 
boot one to get the exact path but email me offline if you can't find it.

Hi all,
we have same problem with a x346. Mainly, TE410P shares IRQ with
network card and if you change IRQ for this slot, automatically change IRQ
in network card.

Any idea?

[Asterisk-Users] IBM x306 - some progress

2005-09-26 Thread Marco Supino

Hi,

I asked yesterday about a problem with x306 and IRQ sharing, didnt get 
much info, now, i was playing with lspci, and see something strange,
lspci -v shows me the TDM400P card is on IRQ 7, and the SCSI card is 
also on IRQ 7,


lspci -bv (from the man - b - shows "bus-centric view, as seen by the 
BUS and not by the kernel) shows me the TDM400P is on IRQ 5, why does 
the kernel puts it on IRQ 7 ?


any insights much appriciated.

Marco.

Hi Marco,

  As far as I can recall, the IBM setup utility can enable you to change the
IRQ of the SCSI controller. 
In addition, I've never seen a WildCard board bound to IRQ7 on any box,
which is very weird in it self.
I'm flying over to Ireland today (actually, at the airport right now), and
I'm coming back on Sunday. If
You'd like, you can bring your box to my office after Rosh-Hashana, and I'll
try to help you out.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] IBM x306 - some progress

2005-09-27 Thread Colin Anderson
I dug up my Netfinity ServeRaid readme:

"Power on your system and observe the screen. 
Press F1 when the "Press F1 for Configuration/Setup" and "Press F2 for
Diagnostics" messages appear. The Configuration/Setup Utility main menu will
appear. 
Select Advanced Setup using the Up or Down arrow key and press Enter. 
Select System Service Processor Settings using the Up or Down arrow key and
press Enter. 
-->Change System Service Processor Hardware Interrupt from Autoconfigure to
IRQ 5. <--
Press Esc. 
Select PCI Bus Control using the Up or Down arrow key and press Enter. 
Select Planar Device PCI Interrupt Routing using the up or down arrow keys
and press Enter. 
-->Change Planar Raid IRQ from Autoconfigure to an available IRQ using the
Left or Right arrow key.<--

Notes: 

If IRQ 10 is available, use IRQ 10. 
If a PCI RAID adapter card is also installed on your system, select Slot
Device PCI Interrupt Routing using the Up or Down arrow key and press Enter.
Change the IRQ for the slot used from Autoconfigure to an available IRQ (you
can share the Planar RAID IRQ)."



In my Netfinity w/ TDM400, I have the TDM set to IRQ 15, the IDE controller
disabled (don't care about the CD-ROM), my PRI TDM card to IRQ 11, VGA set
to IRQ3 (COM ports disabled) and my ServeRaid set to IRQ9. IRQ 5 is used for
the System Service Processor.

IIRC all this I set in the F1 Setup. Rule of thumb best practice is to
disable any hardware in the system that isn't needed specifically: USB, COM
ports, parallel and this should give you plenty of elbow room to juggle
interrupts.
