ipmitool Overview

The Oracle Hardware Management Pack IPMI configuration CLI tool (ipmitool), is a utility that reads the sensor data repository (SDR) and displays the following information:

• Sensor values

• System event log (SEL)

• Field-replaceable unit (FRU) information

• Inventory information

ipmitool also gets and sets LAN configuration parameters, and performs chassis power control operations through the server’s service processor.

ipmitool is supplemental software that you can install using the server’s Tools and Drivers CD or using the Installpack_x_x_x.exe executable file, where the _x_x_x number identifies the version of the package (for example, InstallPack_1_1_4.zip).

For information about using ipmitool with the Management Agents, see Generating SNMP Traps in Oracle Server Management Agents User’s Guide .
