Sun IPMI Target Host Variables

The following list shows all component variables for the Sun IPMI target host. .

This list has been augmented to support the Sun Fire x2100, x4100, and x4200 systems. A new variable, device_type, is provided to enable you to specify the IPMI system type. This variable accepts the following values.

The variable prompts in the browser interface indicate whether a variable must not be set for a specific device type.

The new variable console_service specifies whether to disable console service on IPMI target hosts. The default value for this variable is true.

For those variables that have default values, the default is listed. For those variables that do not have default values, an example value is shown for illustration.
