Prerequisites

ATCA shelf

  • Any ATCA shelf should work.
  • For Rev1 Apollo SMs, the RTM cover should be removed so there is space for the loop back ethernet cable.
  • An ATCA ethernet switch should be installed for remote access of the Zynq and IPMC
  • If no ethernet switch is available, one can connect ethernet to the zynq in the RTM zone of the Apollo SM
  • It is also helpful to have a remotely accessible computer nearby with a USB cable to connect to the front panel console if needed.
  • Remote access via the internet is needed for support.

Computer accounts (BU)

  • Ask Dan in slack for a tesla.bu.edu account to use to hop over to the blades.
  • The currently active Blades at BU can be found here
