NAME

       ipmi-oem - IPMI OEM utility

SYNOPSIS

       ipmi-oem [OPTION...] <OEMID> <OEMCOMMAND> [OEMOPTION...]

DESCRIPTION

       Ipmi-oem is used to execute OEM specific IPMI commands. It is intended to provide a better
       user interface for OEM specific IPMI commands rather than using ipmi-raw(8).   Please  see
       SUPPORTED OEM IDS and COMMANDS below for a list of supported OEM specific IPMI commands. A
       list of supported OEM specific commands may also be generated  using  the  --list  option.
       There  are  no  guarantees  that  the  below  OEM  commands  will  work  on any particular
       motherboard. OEM extensions may or may not exist on particular hardware  revisions  and/or
       firmware revisions of motherboards. The extensions may or may not function for other lines
       of motherboards from the same manufacturer.

       Listed  below  are  general  IPMI  options,  tool  specific  options,   trouble   shooting
       information,   workaround   information,   examples,  and  known  issues.  For  a  general
       introduction to FreeIPMI please see freeipmi(7).

GENERAL OPTIONS

The following options are general options for configuring IPMI communication and executing
general tool commands.

-D IPMIDRIVER, --driver-type=IPMIDRIVER
Specify the driver type to use instead of doing an auto selection. The currently
available outofband drivers are LAN and LAN_2_0, which perform IPMI 1.5 and IPMI
2.0 respectively. The currently available inband drivers are KCS, SSIF, OPENIPMI,
SUNBMC, and INTELDCMI.

--disable-auto-probe
Do not probe in-band IPMI devices for default settings.

--driver-address=DRIVER-ADDRESS
Specify the in-band driver address to be used instead of the probed value. DRIVER-
ADDRESS should be prefixed with "0x" for a hex value and '0' for an octal value.

--driver-device=DEVICE
Specify the in-band driver device path to be used instead of the probed path.

--register-spacing=REGISTER-SPACING
Specify the in-band driver register spacing instead of the probed value. Argument
is in bytes (i.e. 32bit register spacing = 4)

--target-channel-number=CHANNEL-NUMBER
Specify the in-band driver target channel number to send IPMI requests to.

--target-slave-address=SLAVE-ADDRESS
Specify the in-band driver target slave number to send IPMI requests to.

-h IPMIHOST1,IPMIHOST2,..., --hostname=IPMIHOST1[:PORT],IPMIHOST2[:PORT],...
Specify the remote host(s) to communicate with. Multiple hostnames may be separated
by comma or may be specified in a range format; see HOSTRANGED SUPPORT below. An
optional port can be specified with each host, which may be useful in port
forwarding or similar situations. If specifying an IPv6 address and port, use the
format [ADDRESS]:PORT.

-u USERNAME, --username=USERNAME
Specify the username to use when authenticating with the remote host. If not
specified, a null (i.e. anonymous) username is assumed. The required user privilege
will depend on the oem commands executed.

-p PASSWORD, --password=PASSWORD
Specify the password to use when authenticationg with the remote host. If not
specified, a null password is assumed. Maximum password length is 16 for IPMI 1.5
and 20 for IPMI 2.0.

-P, --password-prompt
Prompt for password to avoid possibility of listing it in process lists.

-k K_G, --k-g=K_G
Specify the K_g BMC key to use when authenticating with the remote host for IPMI
2.0. If not specified, a null key is assumed. To input the key in hexadecimal form,
prefix the string with '0x'. E.g., the key 'abc' can be entered with the either the
string 'abc' or the string '0x616263'

-K, --k-g-prompt
Prompt for k-g to avoid possibility of listing it in process lists.

--session-timeout=MILLISECONDS
Specify the session timeout in milliseconds. Defaults to 20000 milliseconds (20
seconds) if not specified.

if not specified.

-I CIPHER-SUITE-ID, --cipher-suite-id=CIPHER-SUITE-ID
Specify the IPMI 2.0 cipher suite ID to use. The Cipher Suite ID identifies a set
of authentication, integrity, and confidentiality algorithms to use for IPMI 2.0
communication. The authentication algorithm identifies the algorithm to use for
session setup, the integrity algorithm identifies the algorithm to use for session
packet signatures, and the confidentiality algorithm identifies the algorithm to
use for payload encryption. Defaults to cipher suite ID 3 if not specified. The
following cipher suite ids are currently supported:

are USER, OPERATOR, and ADMIN. Defaults to ADMIN if not specified.

--config-file=FILE
Specify an alternate configuration file.

-W WORKAROUNDS, --workaround-flags=WORKAROUNDS
Specify workarounds to vendor compliance issues. Multiple workarounds can be
specified separated by commas. A special command line flag of "none", will indicate
no workarounds (may be useful for overriding configured defaults). See WORKAROUNDS
below for a list of available workarounds.

SDR CACHE OPTIONS

       This tool requires access to the sensor data repository (SDR) cache for general operation.
       By  default,  SDR  data  will be downloaded and cached on the local machine. The following
       options apply to the SDR cache.

       --flush-cache
              Flush a cached version of the sensor  data  repository  (SDR)  cache.  The  SDR  is
              typically  cached  for faster subsequent access. However, it may need to be flushed
              and re-generated if the SDR has been updated on a system.

       --quiet-cache
              Do  not  output  information  about  cache  creation/deletion.  May  be  useful  in
              scripting.

       --sdr-cache-recreate
              If  the SDR cache is out of date or invalid, automatically recreate the sensor data
              repository (SDR) cache. This option may be useful for scripting purposes.

       --sdr-cache-file=FILE
              Specify a specific sensor data repository (SDR) cache file to  be  stored  or  read
              from.  If this option is used when multiple hosts are specified, the same SDR cache
              file will be used for all hosts.

       --sdr-cache-directory=DIRECTORY
              Specify an alternate directory for sensor data repository (SDR) caches to be stored
              or read from. Defaults to the home directory if not specified.

TIME OPTIONS

       By  IPMI  definition,  all  IPMI times and timestamps are stored in localtime. However, in
       many situations, the timestamps will not be stored in localtime. Whether or not  a  system
       truly stored the timestamps in localtime varies on many factors, such as the vendor, BIOS,
       and  operating  system.   The  following  options  will  allow  the  user  to  adjust  the
       interpretation of the stored timestamps and how they should be output.

       --utc-to-localtime
              Assume  all times are reported in UTC time and convert the time to localtime before
              being output.

       --localtime-to-utc
              Convert all localtime timestamps to UTC before being output.

       --utc-offset=SECONDS
              Specify a specific UTC offset in seconds to be  added  to  timestamps.   Value  can
              range from -86400 to 86400 seconds. Defaults to 0.

HOSTRANGED OPTIONS

The following options manipulate hostranged output. See HOSTRANGED SUPPORT below for
additional information on hostranges.

-B, --buffer-output
Buffer hostranged output. For each node, buffer standard output until the node has
completed its IPMI operation. When specifying this option, data may appear to
output slower to the user since the the entire IPMI operation must complete before
any data can be output. See HOSTRANGED SUPPORT below for additional information.

-C, --consolidate-output
Consolidate hostranged output. The complete standard output from every node
specified will be consolidated so that nodes with identical output are not output
twice. A header will list those nodes with the consolidated output. When this
option is specified, no output can be seen until the IPMI operations to all nodes
has completed. If the user breaks out of the program early, all currently
consolidated output will be dumped. See HOSTRANGED SUPPORT below for additional
information.

-F NUM, --fanout=NUM
Specify multiple host fanout. A "sliding window" (or fanout) algorithm is used for
parallel IPMI communication so that slower nodes or timed out nodes will not impede
parallel communication. The maximum number of threads available at the same time is
limited by the fanout. The default is 64.

-E, --eliminate
Eliminate hosts determined as undetected by ipmidetect. This attempts to remove
the common issue of hostranged execution timing out due to several nodes being
removed from service in a large cluster. The ipmidetectd daemon must be running on
the node executing the command.

--always-prefix
Always prefix output, even if only one host is specified or communicating in-band.
This option is primarily useful for scripting purposes. Option will be ignored if
specified with the -C option.

IPMI-OEM OPTIONS

       The following options are specific to ipmi-oem.

       -L, --list
              List supported OEM IDs and Commands.

       -v, --verbose
              Output  verbose  information.  Additional output will depend on specific OEM ID and
              OEM COMMANDS specified.

jumper or bmc must be specified to indicate if iPass mappings will be
controlled via jumpers on the system or via a BMC/IPMI. In order for
reconfiguration to be done via ipmi-oem, the user must select bmc. The
ipass-mapping determines which iPass ports will be mapped. 1:2, 1:4, and
1:8 determine the mapping that should be set. See details below for specific
platforms. Command confirmed to work on Dell Poweredge C410x. For the Dell
Poweredge C410x, the ipass-mapping ranges from 1 to 4. 1 refers to iPass 1
and 5, 2 to 2 and 6, 3 to 3 and 7, and 4 to 4 and 8. For the platform C410x,
PCIe slots 1, 2, 3, 4, 13, 14, 15, and 16 are attached to iPass 1, 2, 3, and
4. PCIe slots 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 are attached to iPass 5, 6, 7,
and 8. For example, if 1:2 is set on mapping-number 1, PCIe slots 1 and 15
will be assigned to iPass 1 and slots 2 and 16 will be assigned to iPass 5.
if 1:4 is chosen, PCIe slots 1, 2, 15, and 16 will be assigned to iPass 1
and iPass 5 will not be used.

[domainid=platform|cpu|memory|highpowerio] [policyid=num] This OEM command
will reset Intel Node Manager statistics. The mode will indicate the
statistics to be reset. The user may optionally specify a domainid or
policyid. domainid defaults to platform. If a mode is not specified, it will
default to global or policy, depending on whether or not a policyid is
specified. Command confirmed to work on Intel S5500WB (Penguin Computing
Relion 700), Inventec 5441/5442 (Dell Xanadu II/III), Quanta S99Q (Dell
FS12-TY), Quanta QSSC-S4R (Appro GB812X-CN), Supermicro X9DRi-F, Intel
S2600JF (Appro 512X).

get-node-manager-capabilities [domainid=platform|cpu|memory|highpowerio]
[policytrigger=none|inlettemperaturelimitpolicytrigger|missingpowerreadingtimeout|timeafterplatformresettrigger|boottimepolicy]
[policytype=powercontrol] [policypowerdomain=primary|secondary]
This OEM command will output the current capabilities of the Intel Node
manager. The user may optionally specify a domainid, policytrigger,
policytype, or policypowerdomain. Note that policypowerdomain is only
applicabale to domain id platform. If any particular option is not
specified, all permutations of the remaining options will be used in an
attempt to output all capabilities of the system. If the verbose option is
set, additional error messages will be output as valid policies are being
searched for. Command confirmed to work on Intel S2600JF (Appro 512X).

node-manager-policy-control <enable|disable>
[domainid=platform|cpu|memory|highpowerio] [policyid=num]
This OEM command will enable or disable the current global, domain, or
policies used by the Intel Node Manager. If no domainid is specified, then
the Node Manager will be enabled or globally disabled. If a domainid is
specified, only that domain will be enabled or disabled. If both a domainid
and policyid are specified, only that specific policy within the domain will
be specified. This OEM command will be required to enable or disable
policies before many of the commands below can be used for configuration or
use. Command confirmed to work on Intel S2600JF (Appro 512X).

get-node-manager-policy [domainid=platform|cpu|memory|highpowerio] [policyid=num]
This OEM command will get the current node manager policy. If no domainid is
specified, all policies for all domain IDs and policy Ids will be attempted
to be output. If a domainid is specified but a policyid is not, all policies
within a domain will be attempted to be output. If the verbose option is
set, additional error messages will be output as valid policies are being
searched for. Command confirmed to work on Intel S2600JF (Appro 512X).

set-node-manager-policy domainid=platform|cpu|memory|highpowerio policyid=num
policytrigger=none|inlettemperaturelimitpolicytrigger|missingpowerreadingtimeout|timeafterplatformresettrigger|boottimepolicy
policytargetlimit=num [platformbootingmode=performance|power]
correctiontimelimit=ms statisticsreportingperiod=seconds
policystorage=persistent|volatile [policytriggerlimit=num]
[policystate=enable|disable] [policyexceptionaction=alert|shutdown]
[aggressivepowercorrection=automatic|notaggressive|aggressive]
[policypowerdomain=primary|secondary]
This OEM command will add or modify an indicated policy ID from the domain
ID. Most of the fields above are required, although they can be listed in
any order. By default any created/modified policy will be enabled, however
this can be overridden by policystate. policyexceptionaction may be
specified multiple times to configure multiple actions or can be skipped to
configure no actions. When the policytrigger is configured as none, the
trigger that will lead to exception actions is the value specified by the
policytargetlimit. When the policytrigger is
inlettemperaturelimitpolicytrigger, missingpowerreadingtimeout, or
timeafterplatformresettrigger, the trigger that will lead to exception
actions is the value specified by policytriggerlimit. When the
fIpolicytrigger is boottimepolicy, a power profile will simply be maintained
by the value specified by policytargetlimit. aggressivepowercorrection
defaults to automatic. It can only be set to notaggressive or aggressive if
the domainid is platform or cpu. policystorage determines if the policy
being configured can survive across resets of the machine. The units of the
policytargetlimit depends on the policytrigger selected. If the
policytrigger is none, inlettemperaturelimitpolicytrigger, or
timeafterplatformresettrigger, the units will be in Watts. If the
policytrigger is missingpowerreadingtimeout, the units will be in percent,
where 100 means maximum throttling. If the policytrigger is boottimepolicy,
the units is number of CPUs. In addition, platformbootingmode must be set to
performance or power to indicate optimization mode. policytriggerlimit is
sometimes required, given the input to policytrigger. The units of the
policytriggerlimit will depend on the policytrigger selected. If the
policytrigger is inlettemperaturelimitpolicytrigger, the units of
policytriggerlimit will be in Celsius. If the policytrigger is
missingpowerreadingtimeout or timeafterplatformresettrigger, the units will
be in seconds. If the policytrigger is none or boottimepolicy, the
policytriggerlimit is ignored internally by the Intel Node Manager and need
not be specified.. Typically configuring it to 0 is more than sufficient.
The correctiontimelimit specifies the time the Node Manager must take
corrective actions to bring back the system within limits before taking the
actions specified in policyexceptionaction. statisticsreportingperiod is the
number of seconds that measured power will be averaged for reporting.
Please see get-node-manager-policy to determine proper ranges for
policytargetlimit, correctiontimelimit, policytriggerlimit, and
statisticsreportingperiod. If domainid is configured as platform, user may
optionally set policypowerdomain to primary or secondary. Otherwise
policypowerdomain will be ignored. Command confirmed to work on Intel
S2600JF (Appro 512X).

specified, all alert thresholds for domain IDs and policy Ids will be
attempted to be output. If a domainid is specified but a policyid is not,
all alert thresholds within a domain will be attempted to be output. The
units of the thresholds will depend on the configuration of the current
policy. If the verbose option is set, additional error messages will be
output as valid policies are being searched for. Command confirmed to work
on Intel S2600JF (Appro 512X).

suspend period. The time should be specified in 24 hour format (i.e. 02:00
or 13:40). Note that suspend periods are configured in multiples of 6
minutes, therefore the stored configuration may be rounded to a slightly
alternate configuration. suspendperiodrepeat indicates the days in which
the suspend period shall be enabled. The option can be specified multiple
times to configure multiple times. Command confirmed to work on Intel
S2600JF (Appro 512X).

HOSTRANGED SUPPORT

Multiple hosts can be input either as an explicit comma separated lists of hosts or a
range of hostnames in the general form: prefix[n-m,l-k,...], where n < m and l < k, etc.
The later form should not be confused with regular expression character classes (also
denoted by []). For example, foo[19] does not represent foo1 or foo9, but rather
represents a degenerate range: foo19.

This range syntax is meant only as a convenience on clusters with a prefixNN naming
convention and specification of ranges should not be considered necessary -- the list
foo1,foo9 could be specified as such, or by the range foo[1,9].

Some examples of range usage follow:
foo[01-05] instead of foo01,foo02,foo03,foo04,foo05
foo[7,9-10] instead of foo7,foo9,foo10
foo[0-3] instead of foo0,foo1,foo2,foo3

As a reminder to the reader, some shells will interpret brackets ([ and ]) for pattern
matching. Depending on your shell, it may be necessary to enclose ranged lists within
quotes.

When multiple hosts are specified by the user, a thread will be executed for each host in
parallel up to the configured fanout (which can be adjusted via the -F option). This will
allow communication to large numbers of nodes far more quickly than if done in serial.

By default, standard output from each node specified will be output with the hostname
prepended to each line. Although this output is readable in many situations, it may be
difficult to read in other situations. For example, output from multiple nodes may be
mixed together. The -B and -C options can be used to change this default.

In-band IPMI Communication will be used when the host "localhost" is specified. This
allows the user to add the localhost into the hostranged output.

GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING

Most often, IPMI problems are due to configuration problems.

IPMI over LAN problems involve a misconfiguration of the remote machine's BMC. Double
check to make sure the following are configured properly in the remote machine's BMC: IP
address, MAC address, subnet mask, username, user enablement, user privilege, password,
LAN privilege, LAN enablement, and allowed authentication type(s). For IPMI 2.0
connections, double check to make sure the cipher suite privilege(s) and K_g key are
configured properly. The ipmi-config(8) tool can be used to check and/or change these
configuration settings.

Inband IPMI problems are typically caused by improperly configured drivers or non-standard
BMCs.

In addition to the troubleshooting tips below, please see WORKAROUNDS below to also if
there are any vendor specific bugs that have been discovered and worked around.

Listed below are many of the common issues for error messages. For additional support,
please e-mail the <freeipmi-users@gnu.org> mailing list.

"username invalid" - The username entered (or a NULL username if none was entered) is not
available on the remote machine. It may also be possible the remote BMC's username
configuration is incorrect.

"password invalid" - The password entered (or a NULL password if none was entered) is not
correct. It may also be possible the password for the user is not correctly configured on
the remote BMC.

"password verification timeout" - Password verification has timed out. A "password
invalid" error (described above) or a generic "session timeout" (described below)
occurred. During this point in the protocol it cannot be differentiated which occurred.

"k_g invalid" - The K_g key entered (or a NULL K_g key if none was entered) is not
correct. It may also be possible the K_g key is not correctly configured on the remote
BMC.

"privilege level insufficient" - An IPMI command requires a higher user privilege than the
one authenticated with. Please try to authenticate with a higher privilege. This may
require authenticating to a different user which has a higher maximum privilege.

"privilege level cannot be obtained for this user" - The privilege level you are
attempting to authenticate with is higher than the maximum allowed for this user. Please
try again with a lower privilege. It may also be possible the maximum privilege level
allowed for a user is not configured properly on the remote BMC.

"authentication type unavailable for attempted privilege level" - The authentication type
you wish to authenticate with is not available for this privilege level. Please try again
with an alternate authentication type or alternate privilege level. It may also be
possible the available authentication types you can authenticate with are not correctly
configured on the remote BMC.

"cipher suite id unavailable" - The cipher suite id you wish to authenticate with is not
available on the remote BMC. Please try again with an alternate cipher suite id. It may
also be possible the available cipher suite ids are not correctly configured on the remote
BMC.

"ipmi 2.0 unavailable" - IPMI 2.0 was not discovered on the remote machine. Please try to
use IPMI 1.5 instead.

"connection timeout" - Initial IPMI communication failed. A number of potential errors are
possible, including an invalid hostname specified, an IPMI IP address cannot be resolved,
IPMI is not enabled on the remote server, the network connection is bad, etc. Please
verify configuration and connectivity.

"session timeout" - The IPMI session has timed out. Please reconnect. If this error
occurs often, you may wish to increase the retransmission timeout. Some remote BMCs are
considerably slower than others.

"device not found" - The specified device could not be found. Please check configuration
or inputs and try again.

"driver timeout" - Communication with the driver or device has timed out. Please try
again.

"message timeout" - Communication with the driver or device has timed out. Please try
again.

"BMC busy" - The BMC is currently busy. It may be processing information or have too many
simultaneous sessions to manage. Please wait and try again.

"could not find inband device" - An inband device could not be found. Please check
configuration or specify specific device or driver on the command line.

"driver timeout" - The inband driver has timed out communicating to the local BMC or
service processor. The BMC or service processor may be busy or (worst case) possibly non-
functioning.

WORKAROUNDS

With so many different vendors implementing their own IPMI solutions, different vendors
may implement their IPMI protocols incorrectly. The following describes a number of
workarounds currently available to handle discovered compliance issues. When possible,
workarounds have been implemented so they will be transparent to the user. However, some
will require the user to specify a workaround be used via the -W option.

The hardware listed below may only indicate the hardware that a problem was discovered on.
Newer versions of hardware may fix the problems indicated below. Similar machines from
vendors may or may not exhibit the same problems. Different vendors may license their
firmware from the same IPMI firmware developer, so it may be worthwhile to try workarounds
listed below even if your motherboard is not listed.

If you believe your hardware has an additional compliance issue that needs a workaround to
be implemented, please contact the FreeIPMI maintainers on <freeipmi-users@gnu.org> or
<freeipmi-devel@gnu.org>.

assumeio - This workaround flag will assume inband interfaces communicate with system I/O
rather than being memory-mapped. This will work around systems that report invalid base
addresses. Those hitting this issue may see "device not supported" or "could not find
inband device" errors. Issue observed on HP ProLiant DL145 G1.

spinpoll - This workaround flag will inform some inband drivers (most notably the KCS
driver) to spin while polling rather than putting the process to sleep. This may
significantly improve the wall clock running time of tools because an operating system
scheduler's granularity may be much larger than the time it takes to perform a single IPMI
message transaction. However, by spinning, your system may be performing less useful work
by not contexting out the tool for a more useful task.

authcap - This workaround flag will skip early checks for username capabilities,
authentication capabilities, and K_g support and allow IPMI authentication to succeed. It
works around multiple issues in which the remote system does not properly report username
capabilities, authentication capabilities, or K_g status. Those hitting this issue may see
"username invalid", "authentication type unavailable for attempted privilege level", or
"k_g invalid" errors. Issue observed on Asus P5M2/P5MT-R/RS162-E4/RX4, Intel
SR1520ML/X38ML, and Sun Fire 2200/4150/4450 with ELOM.

nochecksumcheck - This workaround flag will tell FreeIPMI to not check the checksums
returned from IPMI command responses. It works around systems that return invalid
checksums due to implementation errors, but the packet is otherwise valid. Users are
cautioned on the use of this option, as it removes validation of packet integrity in a
number of circumstances. However, it is unlikely to be an issue in most situations. Those
hitting this issue may see "connection timeout", "session timeout", or "password
verification timeout" errors. On IPMI 1.5 connections, the "noauthcodecheck" workaround
may also needed too. Issue observed on Supermicro X9SCM-iiF, Supermicro X9DRi-F, and
Supermicro X9DRFR.

idzero - This workaround flag will allow empty session IDs to be accepted by the client.
It works around IPMI sessions that report empty session IDs to the client. Those hitting
this issue may see "session timeout" errors. Issue observed on Tyan S2882 with M3289 BMC.

unexpectedauth - This workaround flag will allow unexpected non-null authcodes to be
checked as though they were expected. It works around an issue when packets contain non-
null authentication data when they should be null due to disabled per-message
authentication. Those hitting this issue may see "session timeout" errors. Issue observed
on Dell PowerEdge 2850,SC1425. Confirmed fixed on newer firmware.

forcepermsg - This workaround flag will force per-message authentication to be used no
matter what is advertised by the remote system. It works around an issue when per-message
authentication is advertised as disabled on the remote system, but it is actually required
for the protocol. Those hitting this issue may see "session timeout" errors. Issue
observed on IBM eServer 325.

endianseq - This workaround flag will flip the endian of the session sequence numbers to
allow the session to continue properly. It works around IPMI 1.5 session sequence numbers
that are the wrong endian. Those hitting this issue may see "session timeout" errors.
Issue observed on some Sun ILOM 1.0/2.0 (depends on service processor endian).

noauthcodecheck - This workaround flag will tell FreeIPMI to not check the authentication
codes returned from IPMI 1.5 command responses. It works around systems that return
invalid authentication codes due to hashing or implementation errors. Users are cautioned
on the use of this option, as it removes an authentication check verifying the validity of
a packet. However, in most organizations, this is unlikely to be a security issue. Those
hitting this issue may see "connection timeout", "session timeout", or "password
verification timeout" errors. Issue observed on Xyratex FB-H8-SRAY, Intel Windmill,
Quanta Winterfell, and Wiwynn Windmill.

intel20 - This workaround flag will work around several Intel IPMI 2.0 authentication
issues. The issues covered include padding of usernames, and password truncation if the
authentication algorithm is HMAC-MD5-128. Those hitting this issue may see "username
invalid", "password invalid", or "k_g invalid" errors. Issue observed on Intel SE7520AF2
with Intel Server Management Module (Professional Edition).

supermicro20 - This workaround flag will work around several Supermicro IPMI 2.0
authentication issues on motherboards w/ Peppercon IPMI firmware. The issues covered
include handling invalid length authentication codes. Those hitting this issue may see
"password invalid" errors. Issue observed on Supermicro H8QME with SIMSO daughter card.
Confirmed fixed on newerver firmware.

sun20 - This workaround flag will work work around several Sun IPMI 2.0 authentication
issues. The issues covered include invalid lengthed hash keys, improperly hashed keys, and
invalid cipher suite records. Those hitting this issue may see "password invalid" or "bmc
error" errors. Issue observed on Sun Fire 4100/4200/4500 with ILOM. This workaround
automatically includes the "opensesspriv" workaround.

opensesspriv - This workaround flag will slightly alter FreeIPMI's IPMI 2.0 connection
protocol to workaround an invalid hashing algorithm used by the remote system. The
privilege level sent during the Open Session stage of an IPMI 2.0 connection is used for
hashing keys instead of the privilege level sent during the RAKP1 connection stage. Those
hitting this issue may see "password invalid", "k_g invalid", or "bad rmcpplus status
code" errors. Issue observed on Sun Fire 4100/4200/4500 with ILOM, Inventec 5441/Dell
Xanadu II, Supermicro X8DTH, Supermicro X8DTG, Intel S5500WBV/Penguin Relion 700, Intel
S2600JF/Appro 512X, Quanta QSSC-S4R/Appro GB812X-CN, and Dell C5220. This workaround is
automatically triggered with the "sun20" workaround.

integritycheckvalue - This workaround flag will work around an invalid integrity check
value during an IPMI 2.0 session establishment when using Cipher Suite ID 0. The integrity
check value should be 0 length, however the remote motherboard responds with a non-empty
field. Those hitting this issue may see "k_g invalid" errors. Issue observed on Supermicro
X8DTG, Supermicro X8DTU, and Intel S5500WBV/Penguin Relion 700, and Intel S2600JF/Appro
512X.

assumemaxsdrrecordcount - This workaround will inform SDR reading to stop reading after a
known maximum number of SDR records have been read. This will work around systems that
have mis-implemented SDR reading functions. Those hitting this issue may see "SDR record
count invalid" errors. Issue observed on unspecified Inspur motherboard.

No IPMI 1.5 Support - Some motherboards that support IPMI 2.0 have been found to not
support IPMI 1.5. Those hitting this issue may see "ipmi 2.0 unavailable" or "connection
timeout" errors. This issue can be worked around by using IPMI 2.0 instead of IPMI 1.5 by
specifying --driver-type=LAN_2_0. Issue observed on a number of HP and Supermicro
motherboards.

DIAGNOSTICS

       Upon successful execution, exit status is 0. On error, exit status is 1.

       If multiple hosts are specified for communication, the exit status is 0 if and only if all
       targets successfully execute. Otherwise the exit status is 1.

KNOWN ISSUES

       On older operating systems, if you input your username, password,  and  other  potentially
       security  relevant  information on the command line, this information may be discovered by
       other users when using tools like the ps(1) command or looking in the /proc  file  system.
       It  is  generally more secure to input password information with options like the -P or -K
       options. Configuring security relevant information  in  the  FreeIPMI  configuration  file
       would also be an appropriate way to hide this information.

       In  order  to  prevent  brute  force attacks, some BMCs will temporarily "lock up" after a
       number of remote authentication errors. You may need to  wait  awhile  in  order  to  this
       temporary "lock up" to pass before you may authenticate again.
