Intel MPCMM0001 manual Response String, Usage Examples, Snmp

IPMI Pass-Through

The request string will only be validated for the format and ranges specified above. Any further validation of the command or data is left up to the receiver. If the range or format validation fails the error code of E_CLI_INVALID_SET_DATA will be returned.

Note: Please refer to the IPMI Specification for further details on IPMI commands and the values described above.

25.2.2Response String

On a successful transmission, this is a space delimited string containing the data returned as the response to the IPMI request. All the values will be decimal integers. There will always be at least one number returned and is the completion code of the command. The number and meaning of rest of the numbers is dependent on the command sent.

Upon a failure in transmission an error code will be returned from the CLI API. It’s left up to the caller to interpret this code.

25.2.3Usage Examples

25.2.3.1CLI Usage Example

Sending an AdvancedTCA* Get PICMG Properties command to LUN 0 of blade 7:

# cmmset -l blade7 -d IPMICommand -v "0x2c L0 1 0" 0 0 71 142 255 0 4 0

25.2.3.2RCP Usage Example

Sending an AdvancedTCA* Get PICMG Properties command to LUN 0 of blade 7:

# cli_client –s MPCMM0001 –m set -l blade7 –d IPMICommand -v “0x2c 1 L0 0” 0 0 71 142 255 0 4 0

25.3SNMP

Because SNMP sets cannot return data the IPMI pass-through functionality will be split into two SNMP objects under each location: IPMICommandReq and IPMICommandRes (OIDs TBD).

IPMICommandReq will be Read-Write. On a read (get) it will return a string (initially empty) containing the last successful request performed via SNMP. On a write (set) it will return whether the IPMI command was successfully sent and the response was successfully received.

IPMICommandRes will be Read-Only and will return the response string of the last successful IPMICommand. In order to differentiate between requests, the response string will also be followed by the request string separated by “#”.
