ipmitool is a utility for managing and configuring devices that support
|
|
the Intelligent Platform Management Interface. IPMI is an open standard for
|
|
monitoring, logging, recovery, inventory, and control of hardware that is
|
|
implemented independent of the main CPU, BIOS, and OS. The service processor
|
|
(or Baseboard Management Controller, BMC) is the brain behind platform
|
|
management and its primary purpose is to handle the autonomous sensor
|
|
monitoring and event logging features.
|
|
|
|
The ipmitool program provides a simple command-line interface to this
|
|
BMC. It features the ability to read the sensor data repository (SDR) and
|
|
print sensor values, display the contents of the System Event Log (SEL),
|
|
print Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) inventory information, read and set LAN
|
|
configuration parameters, and perform remote chassis power control.
|
|
|
|
This package supports lan (IPMI 1.5), lanplus (IPMI 2.0), and serial.
