FreeIPMI 0.8.9 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 0.8.9 Changes --------------------- o In ipmi-sel and ipmimonitoring, workaround Supermicro H8QME SEL compliance issues in ipmi-sel. o In ipmi-sel, do not report error if SEL is empty. o Support Fujitsu 'get-sel-entry-long-text' in ipmi-oem. o Fix workaround flags bug in ipmimonitoring. o Revert 'Open Session Privilege Workaround' changes in 0.8.8, were unnecessary. o Fix daylight savings bug when configuring BMC times in bmc-device. o Support 'veryslowcommit' workaround for config tools to work around very slow BMCs. o Support --enable-rawdumps compile option. o Support SHA256 in IPMI 2.0. o Other minor bug fixes.
