What is IPMI? The Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) specification defines a set of interfaces for platform management. It is implemented by a large number of hardware manufacturers to support system management on motherboards. The features of IPMI that most users will be interested in are sensor monitoring (i.e. CPU temperatures, fan speeds), remote power control, and serial-over-LAN (SOL). What is FreeIPMI? FreeIPMI provides in-band and out-of-band IPMI software based on the IPMI v1.5/2.0 specification. FreeIPMI provides tools and libraries for users to access and read IPMI sensor readings, system event log (SEL) entries, serial-over-LAN (SOL), remote power control functions, field replaceable unit (FRU) device information, and more. More information about FreeIPMI can be found at the FreeIPMI webpage at: http://www.gnu.org/software/freeipmi/index.html Release 0.7.11 Changes --------------------- o In ipmi-fru, fix FRU output corner cases. o In ipmi-oem, support Dell poweredge, Dell Xanadu2, and new Inventec OEM commands. o In ipmi-sensors and ipmimonitoring, continue reading sensors after a "request parameter not supported" error. o In libfreeipmi, support Get System Information parameters command. o Support --without-encryption build option . o Do not require execute permissions on driver devices. o Fix portability for some embedded systems.
