IPMI Shell
IPMI Shell is a CLI console application and has no graphical user interface. Its commands and
options are specified using command line arguments only.
IPMI Shell supports out-of-band (OOB) access (over a LAN or through the serial port) to a single
system at a time, however, multiple IPMI Shell sessions can run simultaneously on the same
managed system. SeeFigure 3-2.
IPMI Shell allows a user with user-level BMC user privileges to:
•
Display the current power status
•
Display the 16-byte system GUID of the managed system
•
Display all field replaceable units (FRU) present in the system
•
Display the BMC firmware information
•
Display summary information about the event log
•
Display the logged events
In addition to the operations that can be performed by a user with user-level BMC user privileges,
IPMI Shell allows a user with operator-level BMC user privileges to:
•
Power on, reset, or cycle a managed system
•
Simulate a hard power off a managed system (forcing the system to turn off without shutting
down the operating system)
•
Delete the system event log (SEL)
•
Turn on/off the blinking system identification LED
