FreeIPMI 1.1.5 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 1.1.5 Changes --------------------- Tools ------ o Support Supermicro OEM sensors/SEL on H8DGU-F motherboards. o In ipmiconsole, fix password length check bug. o In bmc-watchdog, fix --start-if-stopped and --reset-if-running options. o In ipmidetectd, fix usage output typos. o In ipmi-sensors-config, fix several parallel output corner cases. o For consistency to other tools, turn on quiet-caching if communicating with multiple hosts in bmc-device and ipmi-oem. o In ipmi-sensors, fix bug in which multiple workarounds could not be used or used in combination with bridging. o Fix start run levels in ipmidetectd init script. Libraries --------- o In libfreeipmi fru-parse API, handle additional device busy errors. Misc ---- o Various documentation updates. -- Albert Chu ch...@llnl.gov Computer Scientist High Performance Systems Division Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory _______________________________________________ GNU Announcement mailing list <info-gnu@gnu.org> https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnu
