[Ipmitool-devel] ipmi_chassis_status() - to static or not...

2008-02-15 Thread Hall, Eric R
All - I am working on a library for ipmitool and I would like to be able to use some commands from ipmi_chassis.c that are currently static int. The function I am most interested in is ipmi_chassis_status(). However, since it is a static, I cannot use it in my library. Is there any reason why

Tomek - The LCD screen interfaces to the BMC via I2C (IPMB connector). If for some [very bad] reason the BMC fails, the LAN and I2C interface will not work. The BMC should reset to a working state in the event of an error unless when it's failing it's being held by something. How is your

Alexey - If you _actually_ want to use BIOS redirection you'll need to use Serial Port B in the BIOS settings. At least, that's the only port that is supposed to be supported. Once grub/Kernel/etc... loads, they can send data to the correct serial port. In IPMITool, the 'volatile bit rate'

Mike - Memtest86+ should have worked out of the box with out having to modify it. At boot, add console=ttyS1,38400 (or whatever speed your BMC supports). At least, this worked on an Intel setup with Ubuntu server 8.10. - Eric -Original Message- From: Mike Lovell [mailto:[EMAIL

Geert Jan - Is '0xaa' the sensor number? Usually you use the re-arm command with the sensor number. I.E. 0x04 0x2a senor number 0x00 A Set Event Receiver command can be used as a global re-arm command. Otherwise, use the raw 0x04 0x2a sensor number 0x00 to re-arm the sensor. - Eric

A 1 second interval on the firmware level is fairly heavy use. You will not want that. Anything less than about 2 minutes is a bit overkill for a small embedded system that shares its resources. For what it does, IPMITool is probably the fastest In-band and OOB IPMI level tool you will find.

Thiyagu - IPMITool does not log system faults into the SEL. System faults are added to the SEL by the systems management controller. IPMITool reads the SEL from the management controller. Capture output: # ipmitool sel list se.log Here is a starting point to parse your data: $ cat se.log |

Correction the TDPS-600CB C Rev S2F does have the PMBus connector. I know that there are some older Rev S0F supplies that don't seem to have a functioning PMBus. Again, check your PSU. -Original Message- From: Hall, Eric R [mailto:eric.r.h...@intel.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 21
