There are several vendors who support remote virtual media, graphical remote console (KVM), HTTP, LDAP, etc. However, these features are implemented with proprietary interfaces, and are above the standard IPMI specification. So, the vendor (SuperMicro) needs to provide you with a command line tool, if possible, or perhaps an http URL to invoke it using cgi with parameters or something.

Anybody know a way to support virtual media via the command line? SuperMicro servers provide some really nice support for mounting iso images via their IPMI cards - but only via their rather clunky Java client or their equally clunky web interface. ipmitool provides a much simpler way to get to most functions, but doesn't seem to support virtual media. Thoughts? Thanks, Miles Fidelman -- In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is. ....
