In the 2003 IBC, were smoke detectors required in a type M occupancy electrical room?

Also, I cannot find this: A true fire door, such as a "wondor" brand, one that closes off a fire partition opening, how is it required to be tied to the fire alarm? Ie, must they close in the event of a fire alarm, if they do not have door release service smokes tied to it?
