NAME

       freeipmi.conf - specify default values to FreeIPMI

DESCRIPTION

       The  FreeIPMI  configuration  file  can  be  used  to set alternate default values to many
       FreeIPMI tools so values don't have to be configured on the  command  line.   This  allows
       users  to  avoid  typing  in  a  long  list of command line options everytime a command is
       executed. It  can  also  be  used  to  hide  usernames,  passwords,  and  other  sensitive
       information from the ps(1) command.

       Currently,  the  tools  that  can  be  configured  with  the  configuration file are: bmc-
       device(8), bmc-info(8),  bmc-watchdog(8),  ipmi-chassis(8),  ipmi-config(8),  ipmi-fru(8),
       ipmi-oem(8),  ipmi-pet(8),  ipmi-raw(8), ipmi-sel(8), ipmi-sensors(8), ipmiconsole(8), and
       ipmipower(8).

       By default, the configuration file is stored at /etc/freeipmi//freeipmi.conf.   But  users
       may  select  a  different  configuration  file  at the command line with the --config-file
       option.

       Values specified on the command line override the configuration values  specified  in  the
       configuration file.

FORMAT

       The  configuration  options  that  can  be  specified in the configuration file are listed
       below. Each configuration option must be listed on  a  separate  line.  Arguments  for  an
       option are separated by any amount of whitespace. Multiple arguments are also separated by
       whitespace.  Comments can be marked by using the pound sign ("#") character, and lines can
       be continued on the next using backslash ("\").

       Note  that  it  is possible to list the username, password and other potentially sensitive
       information in the configuration file. If this data is stored  in  a  configuration  file,
       system administrators should limit access to this file.

GENERAL OPTIONS

       The  following  options  are  options  generally available to all tools, although specific
       options may be ignored by some. (For  example,  ipmiconsole(8)  and  ipmipower(8)  do  not
       perform  in-band communication, therefore they would ignore in-band communication options.
       Similarly bmc-watchdog(8) does not perform out-of-band communication, therefore  it  would
       ignore all out-of-band options).
