Firmware update commands are not entirely covered by IPMI spec but by OEM 
defined functions either in the Firmware NetFN or by PICMG defined HPM.1 
standard. Your IPMI vendor should tell you what it supports, most might only 
support OEM functions, not likely to be supported by IPMITOOL unless 
contributed by the vendor itself. I don't know if HPM.1 will become widely 
adopted, but it does offer an intelligent alternative to custom solutions and 
is included in IPMITOOL.

Objet : [Ipmitool-devel] upgrade firmware using ipmitool

 

Hi, 

Am very new to ipmitool...

I wanted to upgrade the firmware:

1. $ipmitool mc info 
 
ipmitool mc info
Device ID                 : 18
Device Revision           : 1
Firmware Revision         : 4.3
IPMI Version              : 2.0
Manufacturer ID           : 10
Manufacturer Name         : TCS
Product ID                : 0 (0x0000)
Product Name              : Unknown (0x0)
Device Available          : yes
Provides Device SDRs      : no
Additional Device Support :
    Sensor Device
    SDR Repository Device
    SEL Device
    FRU Inventory Device
    IPMB Event Receiver
    Bridge
    Chassis Device
Aux Firmware Rev Info     :
    0x03
    0x01
    0x00
    0x00

In the above output, it shows the Firmware  revision as 4.3, Now I would wanted 
to upgrade this to 4.4 version.

I have binary file to upgrade. But I wanted to know how to use ipmitool command 
to achieve the same?

Does any one have any idea?
