FreeIPMI 1.2.6 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 1.2.6 Changes ------------------------- o Support HP Proliant DL160 G8 OEM sensors. o Support Supermicro X9SCM-iiF OEM sensors and events. o Support output of temperature sampling period to ipmi-dcmi. o Clarify error message when SOL session cannot be stolen in ipmiconsole/libipmiconsole. o Fix dcmi rolling average time period output error o Fix ipmi-dcmi output errors with --get-dcmi-sensor-info. o Fix corner case in calculation of confidentiality pad length with AES-CBC-128 encryption. Incorrect pad effects some vendor firmware implementations. o Send IPMI 2.0 packets differently than IPMI 1.5 packets, as the former does not require legacy pad data to be appended to payloads. o Fix Intel OEM SEL buffer overflow. o Fix out of trunk source build. Libraries --------- o Support new ipmi_rmcpplus_sendto() and ipmi_rmcpplus_recvfrom() functions. o Support new HP Proliant DL160 G8 OEM sensor events. -- Albert Chu [email protected] Computer Scientist High Performance Systems Division Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory _______________________________________________ GNU Announcement mailing list <[email protected]> https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnu
