FreeIPMI 0.7.12 has been released. It can be downloaded at: http://www.gnu.org/software/freeipmi/download.html
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 0.7.12 Changes --------------------- o In bmc-config, fix SOL config corner case. Assume LAN channel if SOL channel cannot be read. o In bmc-config, configure Password before Enable_User by default for security. o Add SDR reading/loading workarounds for Fujitsu RX 100 motherboards. o Add --assume-system-event-records to ipmi-sel to workaround HP DL 380 G5 motherboards. o In bmc-config, add workarounds for Dell Poweredge servers. o In ipmi-oem, support additional Dell Poweredge OEM commands. o In ipmi-oem, support additional Supermicro OEM commands. o Document workarounds necessary for newer Supermicro motherboards. o Fix several error output corner cases.
