Sanjay,

The IPMI SEL should log those events, BUT ... the sensors for each
platform can be configured at the factory to log or not log events via a
setting in its SDR.  This is normally written out in the initial SDR
settings at the factory.  Every platform I've ever tested does have a
SEL event for power off/on, etc.  HP should be able to give more
information as to how this is set or changed in the SDR.  

For a PET, IPMI systems usually have some default PEF table entries to
generate PETraps, but I don't know what those are for HP Proliant.
You can view them with "ipmiutil lan" or "pefconfig" from
http://ipmiutil.sf.net.
If these events are not covered by the factory default PEF entries, you
could compose a custom PEF table entry to report this, but the SDR would
have to have the eventing enabled for that sensor as mentioned above.

Subject: [Ipmitool-devel] HP ProLiant power off/on/reset events

Greetings,

I am using HP ProLiant systems and ipmitool-1.8.8 and
want to be informed about a power off/on/reset events
by mining SEL events or by receiving IPMI PET.

Does IPMI SEL logs such events? I did not see such
events even after issuing several power off/on/reset
commands.
 
Does ipmitool support PEF operations to set alert
destination addresses and enable BMCs to sendout PET
for off/on/reset events?

Regards,
SKV
