Appendix III: SMDC Information 
Tyan Server Management Daughter Card (SMDC) is a powerful yet cost efficient solution for 
high end server management hardware packages. Tyan's goal is to provide remote system 
monitoring and control even when the operating system is absence or simply fails. This 
empowers Tyan's server board with advanced industrial standard features. 
Tyan SMDC is a snap in card that provides essential server management solution. It enables 
any IT Manager by providing multi interfaces to access the hardware remotely and perform 
monitor, control and diagnose activities effectively. 
Tyan SMDC is powered by an intelligent controller known as Baseboard Management Control 
(BMC). BMC is a standalone mini CPU and runs on its own Real Time Operating System 
(RTOS) to complete all different kinds of tasks. Backed by Qlogic's ARM7 technology, IT 
manager can rest assure his server machines are always taken care. 
Tyan SMDC is not a peripheral card. Unlike regular peripheral card such as AGP card, 
Network card or SCSI card, SMDC does not require any hardware specific driver. As long as a 
standby power comes into the system, SMDC will begin looking after the system. 
Tyan SMDC provides diversified methods to communicate with the hardware. IT manager has 
the flexibility to choose among Keyboard Controller Style (KCS), Block Transfer (BT) style, 
Intelligent Chassis Management Bus (ICMB), Intelligent Platform Management Bus (IPMB), 
Emergency Management Port (EMP) and standard IPMI Over LAN communication as defined 
in latest IPMI 1.5 specification. 
Tyan SMDC is compatible with all IPMI compliance software as well as Tyan System 
Operator
TM
 (TSO) software package. 
By adding SMDC, Tyan's server board becomes a highly manageable and IPMI compatible 
system with all the advanced features suggesting in IPMI Spec.
