AGENDA

Getting hardware to people -- Update

There are 3 components: host system (AC922), Interposer board, DC-SCM Board.

  • AC922

    • 1 is in Rochester
    • 1 is in Australia
    • 1 is in Sunnyvale, USA @ Google
    • 1 is in Seattle, USA @ Google
    • Loaner from IBM Poland to Antmicro is in process
      • System is ready to ship
      • Antmicro should have an get an email from GLT EMEA to sign the loaner paperwork
    • Further action on aquiring AC922s
      • Antmicro is purchasing one and should have it soon
        • Snags have been worked through and reports are it should arrive soon
        • Any Update?
      • VanTosh will also be purchasing at least one
        • PO send ETA end October 2021

  • Interposer

    • 6 pieces. Parts for 4 more are in Rochester
      • All Parts did not come to make more. Todd working on tracking them down.
    • 2 are in Rochester
    • 2 are in Australia
    • 2 are at Antmicro

  • DC-SCM board

    • 4 boards, but only 3 have FPGAs

      • Update is Google is providing some to Antmicro.
        • 6 weeks out at least
      • Also attempting to get some from China
      • Plan to have 10 total when the FPGAs arrive.
      • Need to be tested

    • Update: Australia can get into the plant, so best may be to send 1 DC-SCM to Australia for bringup in parallel with the Antmicro bringup.

      • Need general smoke test, RAM, ethernet test, GPIOs
      • Once the FPGAs come, they will test and ship to Australia
        • Since we are 3 weeks out on getting the AC922s to Antmicro, can we ship a smoke tested DC-SCM to IBM Australia ASAP? Karol to check.

    • Need to start working on getting Lattice parts for the DC-SCM board. Michael will take the lead on this.

      • PCBs sent in for production for lattice FPGA
      • Still need memory and ethernet parts
      • Marshall offered to help if there are issues getting FPGAs
      • Any Update?

OCP Summit

  • Want to have a "LibreBMC" setup for OCP Summit booth

    • Plan to ship from Rochester. Need a DC-SCM card in Rochester.
      • Any update?
    • Cannot power the AC922 at the booth
      • There will be a screen now. So a demo and various presentations could be playing on it.

  • LibreBMC was approved for a 5 minute "lightening" presentation.

    • Todd sent out the rough draft and submitted it. Waiting for further feedback.

  • In addition to the 5 minute live presentation, a 20-30 minute full presentation can be shown as a part of the virtual conference

    • Todd is planning to use the DC-SCM presentation as a base.
      • Need to add a demo if possible
    • First Deadline for submission is Oct 11th
    • Final Deadline is Oct 25th

  • Want a demo to be videotaped for that virtual conference presentation.

    • Antmicro will help to create the demo
      • Though maybe we have this done in Australia due to lack of an AC922 at Antmicro
    • What to show on the demo
      • BMCweb UI.
      • Lots of sensors/etc could be shown.

  • Presentation of LibreBMC to the OCP DC-SCM working group has been moved to the public meeting on the first week of October.

    • Todd created the initial charts.
    • Need Antmicro DC-SCM charts
