The commands +are composed as hex values on the command line. This tool was +written to allow in-band use to match the DOS CMDTOOL.EXE or +IPMITOOL.EXE program which is distributed with many Intel servers. +Certain scripts or pre-written commands may have been supplied for +the DOS tool that can now be used while the system is running +Linux or Windows. + +This utility can use either the /dev/ipmi0 driver from OpenIPMI, +the /dev/imb driver from Intel, the /dev/ipmikcs driver from valinux, +direct user-space IOs, or the IPMI LAN interface if \-N. + +This tool should only be used if you are familiar with the IPMI 1.5 +specification, or you have specific pre-written commands to send. + + +.SH OPTIONS +Command line options are described below. +.IP "-q" +Quiet mode. Show only minimal header information. +.IP "-s" +Skips the GetDeviceID command +.IP "-x" +Causes extra debug messages to be displayed. +.IP "-N nodename" +Nodename or IP address of the remote target system. If a nodename is +specified, IPMI LAN interface is used. Otherwise the local system +management interface is used. +.IP "-U rmt_user" +Remote username for the nodename given. The default is a null username. +.IP "-P/-R rmt_pswd" +Remote password for the nodename given. The default is a null password. +.IP "-E" +Use the remote password from Environment variable IPMI_PASSWORD. +.IP "-F drv_t" +Force the driver type to one of the followng: +imb, va, open, gnu, landesk, lan, lan2, lan2i, kcs, smb. +Note that lan2i means lan2 with intelplus. +The default is to detect any available driver type and use it. +.IP "-J" +Use the specified LanPlus cipher suite (0 thru 17): 0=none/none/none, +1=sha1/none/none, 2=sha1/sha1/none, 3=sha1/sha1/cbc128, 4=sha1/sha1/xrc4_128, +5=sha1/sha1/xrc4_40, 6=md5/none/none, ... 14=md5/md5/xrc4_40. +Default is 3. +.IP "-T" +Use a specified IPMI LAN Authentication Type: 0=None, 1=MD2, 2=MD5, 4=Straight Password, 5=OEM. +.IP "-V" +Use a specified IPMI LAN privilege level. 1=Callback level, 2=User level, 3=Operator level, 4=Administrator level (default), 5=OEM level. +.IP "-Y" +Yes, do prompt the user for the IPMI LAN remote password. +Alternatives for the password are \-E or \-P. + +.SH PARAMETERS +The following parameters are used by icmd. Each is represented as +a two-digit hex byte. The parameters have no default values. + +.IP "bus" +This byte contains the bus number for this command, usually 00. + +.IP "rsSa" +This is the resource slave address, usually 0x20 for the BMC. + +.IP "netFn/lun" +This byte combines the net Function and Lun. The 2 low-order bits +are the Lun and the 6 high-order bits are the net Function. +This representation is consistent with the DOS CMDTOOL/IPMITOOL. + +.IP "cmd" +This byte contains the IPMI command. + +.IP "[data bytes]" +This is a sequence of zero to 16 bytes that represent data bytes +specific to this command. + +.SH "EXAMPLES" +icmd 00 20 18 01 +.br +Sends the GetDevice ID command to the BMC. +.PP +icmd 00 20 28 43 00 00 ff ff 00 ff +.br +Sends a Get SEL entry command for the last entry in the firmware log. + +.SH "SEE ALSO" +ipmiutil(8) ialarms(8) iconfig(8) idiscover(8) ievents(8) ifru(8) igetevent(8) ihealth(8) ilan(8) ireset(8) isel(8) isensor(8) iserial(8) isol(8) iwdt(8) + +.SH WARNINGS +See http://ipmiutil.sourceforge.net/ for the latest version of ipmiutil and any bug fix list. + +.SH COPYRIGHT +Copyright (C) 2009 Kontron America, Inc. +.PP +See the file COPYING in the distribution for more details +regarding redistribution. +.PP +This utility is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but +WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY. + +.SH AUTHOR +.PP +Andy Cress +.br + -- cgit v1.2.3
