FreeIPMI 1.0.2 has been released. It can be downloaded at: http://www.gnu.org/software/freeipmi/download.html What is IPMI? The Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) specification defines a set of interfaces for platform management. It is implemented by a large number of hardware manufacturers to support system management on motherboards. The features of IPMI that most users will be interested in are sensor monitoring (i.e. CPU temperatures, fan speeds), remote power control, and serial-over-LAN (SOL). What is FreeIPMI? FreeIPMI provides in-band and out-of-band IPMI software based on the IPMI v1.5/2.0 specification. FreeIPMI provides tools and libraries for users to access and read IPMI sensor readings, system event log (SEL) entries, serial-over-LAN (SOL), remote power control functions, field replaceable unit (FRU) device information, and more. More information about FreeIPMI can be found at the FreeIPMI webpage at: http://www.gnu.org/software/freeipmi/index.html Release 1.0.2 Changes --------------------- o Support --ignore-unrecognized-events in ipmi-sensors. o Clarify error messages in ipmi-locate. o Support Supermicro X7DBR-3, X8DTL-3F, X8DT3-LN4F motherboard OEM sensors. o Support Dell Module/Board OEM sensor interpretation on Poweredge R210 motherboards. o In bmc-info, support motherboards that don't implement Get Device Guid. o In bmc-watchdog, fix error logging corner case. o Support new -r option in ganglia_ipmi_sensors.pl plugin to modify ipmi hostname. o Add workaround for SDR caching compliance bug in HP Proliant DL585G7. o In bmc-config, add workaround for motherboards that do not allow you to configure identical usernames. o Various documentation updates.
