ipmiutil_user - handle user functions

SYNOPSIS¶

ipmiutil user [-cmsx -NUPREFTVY] <function>

DESCRIPTION¶

This ipmiutil user subcommand handles IPMI LAN user functions separately. These functions can also be handled from ipmiutil lan -q, -u, -p, -v.

This utility can use either the /dev/ipmi0 driver from OpenIPMI, the /dev/imb driver from Intel, the /dev/ipmikcs driver from valinux, direct user-space IOs, or the IPMI LAN interface if -N.

-m 002000

Target a specific MC (e.g. bus 00, sa 20, lun 00). This could be used for PICMG or ATCA blade systems. The trailing character, if present, indicates SMI addressing if 's', or IPMB addressing if 'i' or not present.

-s

When getting info, also get the DCMI sensor information.

-x
