Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install ipmiutil on Fedora 34.

What is ipmiutil

The ipmiutil package provides easy-to-use utilities to view the SEL, perform an IPMI chassis reset, set up the IPMI LAN and Platform Event Filter entries to allow SNMP alerts, Serial-Over-LAN console, event daemon, and other IPMI tasks. These can be invoked with the metacommand ipmiutil, or via subcommand shortcuts as well. IPMIUTIL can also write sensor thresholds, FRU asset tags, and has a full IPMI configuration save/restore. An IPMI driver can be provided by either the OpenIPMI driver (/dev/ipmi0) or the Intel IPMI driver (/dev/imb), etc. If used locally and no driver is detected, ipmiutil will use user-space direct I/Os instead. ipmiutil 3.1.2 9.fc34 x86_64 622 k ipmiutil-3.1.2-9.fc34.src.rpm fedora Easy-to-use IPMI server management utilities http BSD The ipmiutil package provides easy-to-use utilities to view the SEL, perform an IPMI chassis reset, set up the IPMI LAN and Platform Event Filter entries to allow SNMP alerts, Serial-Over-LAN console, event daemon, and other IPMI tasks.
