Management Processor Monitor: IPMC Commands

fru set internal <source addr> <internal use offset> <count>

The fru create command loads a default fru image to a blank fru device.

fru create <id> default <product name>

fru create <id> <address> <size> <product name>

fruinit

The fruinit command initializes the following fru data fields: part number, build date, and serial number in the board and product sections.

Definition: fruinit <fru id> <part number> <build date> [ serial number ]

fruled

The fruled command allows the application programmer to get the status of the red out-of- service LED or to turn the LED on or off when an application fails to load.

Definition: fruled get <fru id> <led id> <led state> <led function (on/off)> <on time> <color>

fruled set <fru id> <led id> <led function (on/off)> <on time> <color>

Example: Turns the red out-of-service LED on.

fruled set 0 1 0xff 0 2

Turns the red out-of-service LED off.

fruled set 0 1 0 0 2

ipmchpmfw

The ipmchpmfw command restores the previous IPMC firmware from the backup IPMC firmware stored in the controller. The upgrade argument upgrades the IPMC firmware with the upgrade image held in memory.

Definition: ipmchpmfw [restore] [upgrade <source address>]

sensor

The sensor command probes, reads, and prints the sensor information from the IPMI.

Definition: sensor [probereaddump]

Sensor probe prints out each sensor number and name.

sensor probe <sensor number>

Sensor read prints out the sensor reading for sensor.

sensor read <sensor number>

Sensor dump prints out the raw Sensor Data Record (SDR) information for sensor.

sensor dump <sensor number>
