FWIW, if the HW is Intel ICH based and if the BMC is doing the NMI via the PCI slot, then the chipset needs to be configured to allow the NMI to go through to the CPU. I've found some systems don't enable the chaining of a PCI NMI to the CPU NMI so then the NMI doesn't work. I wrote some code to flip the bit in the ICH to enable it. Note that it appears to be a one shot so you can't get a 2nd NMI via the PCI.
