How to Verify IPMItool Installation

  1. To confirm that the driver has been installed, you must first obtain the device string:

    F:\ism> devcon find *ism

    The output contains the device string for this driver.

  2. Run the following command to obtain the status:

    F:\ism> devcon status @device-string

  3. Assuming the devcon find command returns the device string ROOT\SYSTEM\0003, the following command would be entered:

    F:\ism> devcon status @ROOT\SYSTEM\0003

    The expected output should be similar to this:

    Name: Sun IPMI System Management Driver v2.1Driver is running1 matching device(s) found.
