Displays IPM controller information. Issued on the CMC.
ipmc [-v] [IPMB_address]
where IPMB_address is the IPMB bus address of the component.
This CLIA command shows information about the IPM controller at the specified address, or about all IPM controllers known to the Shelf Manager, if IPMB_address is omitted.
The following information is shown for the IPM controller in standard mode:
IPMB address of the controller, as two hexadecimal digits.
Entity ID and entity instance for the IPM controller.
Maximum possible FRU device ID for the IPM controller.
PICMG extension version. This version should be 2.0 for PICMG 3.0-compliant IPM controllers.
Current hot-swap state, previous hot-swap state, and cause of the last state change for FRU device 0 of the IPM controller (which represents the IPM controller itself). The hot-swap states M0 – M7 are defined in the PICMG 3.0 specification as follows:
M0 – Not installed
M1 – Inactive
M2 – Activation request
M3 – Activation in progress
M4 – FRU active
M5 – Deactivation request
M6 – Deactivation in progress
M7 – Communication lost
The -v option enables verbose output.
The following example shows how to display information about the IPM controller at IPMB address 92 (line card 8) with the impc command.
