Involved Projects and Packages
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, and other IPMI tasks.
These can be invoked with the metacommand ipmiutil, or via subcommand
shortcuts as well. Man pages are provided.
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 performs a series of common IPMI server management functions to allow administrators to perform management functions without a learning curve. It can gather FRU inventory data, SEL firmware log, sensors, watchdog, power control, health, monitoring, and has an SOL console. It can write sensor thresholds, FRU asset tags, and supports a full IPMI configuration save/restore.
OS support includes Linux, Windows (natively), Solaris, BSD, and MacOSX.
CIM, WBEM and all the other nice goodies for enterprise systems management.
