Hi Jim, Sorry for the late reply. Probably you already sorted it out, but I hope to help anyway.
I would recommend using CloudStack + Redfish as IPMI will soon be dropped by vendors. If you check how vendors are exposing the Redfish API you will notice that there are a few quirks in each of them. Therefore, it "could" require a few adjustments on the CloudStack Redfish implementation depending on the vendor. However, I've implemented Redfish accordingly to Dell and Supermicro Redfish API documentation. I have machines from both vendors and they are working fine. So if you have Dell or Supermicro machines, Redfish should work in CloudStack out-of-band integration. Regards, Gabriel.
