That's the direction I'm heading at present.

Subject: Re: [xcat-user] KVM/RHEV Setup
Check out LanServ/IPMI Sim. I've never tried it but it looks promising:
https://github.com/wrouesnel/openipmi/tree/master/lanserv
lanserv is a program that provides a LAN connection for a BMC that
does not otherwise have a LAN connection. It takes a standard Linux
IPMI device and implements the IPMI LAN protocol.
ipmi_sim is a full IPMI simulator and does not require a real BMC. It
can be used to simulate an entire IPMI system, including satellite
MCs. You can use it over a LAN connection, or it provides a serial
interface so it can be used with QEMU or other VMs. The serial
interface implements the serial protocols available on many ATCA
blades, and it also emulates a protocol so it may be used for
emulation of a standard IPMI interface (KCS, SMIC, BT, SSIF) including
the handling of reset, power, and interrupts.

I have been tasked with doing some internal training on xCAT. Since I have a
nice, stable RHEV setup I have everyone setup with their own private lab
environment and so far my testing has gone well. The only bit I can't figure
out is power control. I've been through the docs and have seen where xCAT can
handle power when it knows about RHEV and is deploying the virtual machines but
that's not what I need. This is supposed to simulate a physical environment. Is
there a way to have xCAT control power from a virtual head node on virtual
nodes that weren't created by xCAT?
