| Full description | FreeIPMI provides in-band and out-of-band … FreeIPMI provides in-band and out-of-band IPMI software based on the IPMI v1.5/2.0 specification. The software has been written with a number of useful features for large HPC and cluster environments.. Its components include: * Libfreeipmi - A C library that includes KCS, SSIF, and OpenIPMI drivers, IPMI 1.5 and IPMI 2.0 LAN communication interfaces, IPMI packet building utilities, IPMI command utilities, and utilities for reading/interpreting/managing IPMI. * Bmc-info - A tool to read information about the local BMC such as version information and device support. * Bmc-config - A tool to configure usernames, passwords, networking information, security, and other relevant IPMI configuration fields. * Bmc-watchdog - A tool/daemon to manage a BMC Watchdog. This tool is typically used for system timeout management and automatic system restarts in the event of a system crash. * Ipmi-chassis - A tool to manage/monitor a chassis, such as chassis power, identification, and status. * Ipmi-fru - A tool to read field replaceable unit (FRU) information from a motherboard/machine. * Ipmi-sel - A tool to read and manage IPMI System Event Log (SEL) records. * Ipmi-sensors - A tool to read IPMI sensor readings and sensor data repository (SDR) information. * Ipmipower - A tool for remote power control. * Ipmiconsole/Libipmiconsole - A tool and library for Serial-over-Lan (SOL) console access. * Ipmi-raw - A tool that provides hex input/output of IPMI commands. * Ipmi-locate - A tool that can probe for information about the location of a BMC device, such as device addresses. * Ipmimonitoring/Libipmimonitoring - A tool and library for used for sensor interpretation/monitoring. The tool is similar to ipmi-sensors, but sensor readings are mapped into Nominal, Warning, and Critical states. * Pef-config - A tool to configure IPMI Platform Event Filtering (PEF) configuration. * Ipmiping - An IPMI ping tool for debugging. * Rmcpping - A RMCP ping tool for debugging. * Ipmidetect/Ipmidetectd/libipmidetect - A tool, daemon, and library for IPMI node detection. emon, and library for IPMI node detection. |
