Hi, Currently in ipmitool 1.8.11 the timeout/retry for LAN/LANplus is not configurable (even though the interface has function to configure the required values) . By default its hardcoded to following values
in src/plugins/lan/lan.c
#define IPMI_LAN_TIMEOUT 2
#define IPMI_LAN_RETRY 4
in src/plugins/lanplus/lanplus.h
#define IPMI_LAN_TIMEOUT 1
#define IPMI_LAN_RETRY 4
In case we need to change the retry number or increase the timeout
currently its not possible. Therefore a patch file is added which will
allow user to set the required timeout/retry for the LAN/LANplus. Please
note, this patch file is diff'd with the file present in CVS version ie
rev 1.27.
