Hi Bala, To me, it makes sense to remove 'defaults' from the tool ipmi-locate. But for library probing, I feel it must still be there.
If there manufacturer offers no inband information for IPMI (through smbios, dmi, or pci), then at the bare minimum you can try the IPMI defaults. If you don't assume the IPMI defaults, then do you assume the user must also input the address/registerspacing/etc. into the inband tools? Otherwise probing will always fail. I've reverted this change, because I have a machine which has no probing information. It simply implements the IPMI defaults.
