NAME¶
openipmish - Shell interface to an IPMI system
 
SYNOPSIS¶
openipmish [
option]
 
DESCRIPTION¶
The 
openipmish is a command interpreter that gives the full power of the
  OpenIPMI library to a user-level command language. It is designed so it can
  easily be driven with a scripting language like TCL, it has well-formed
  output.
 
openipmish starts up with no connections or anything of that nature. You
  must enter commands to make connections to domains.
 
OPTIONS¶
  - --dmsg
 
  - Turn on message debugging, this will dump all messages to
      debug log output.
 
  - --drawmsg
 
  - Turn on raw message debugging, this will dump all low-level
      messages to debug log output. This differes from normal message debugging
      in that all protocol messages are also dumped, not just IPMI
    messages.
 
  - --dmem
 
  - Turn on memory debugging, this will cause memory allocation
      and deallocations to be checked. When the program terminates, it will dump
      all memory that was not properly freed (leaked).
 
  - --dlock
 
  - Turn on lock debugging, this will check lock operations to
      make sure that locks are help in all the proper places and make sure that
      locks are properly nested.
 
  - --snmp
 
  - Enable the SNMP trap handler. openipmish must be
      compiled with SNMP code enabled for this option to be available.
 
  - --help
 
  - Help output
    
 
   
COMMANDS¶
openipmish follows the standard command syntax defined in
  
ipmi_cmdlang(7). See that for the details on most commands. The IPMI
  manual that comes with OpenIPMI will also be quite handy.
 
openipmish defines some commands that are not in the standard command
  language. These are:
 
  - read
 
  - Read and execute commands from the given file.
    
 
   
  - exit
 
  - Quit
    
 
   
  - redisp_cmd on|off
 
  - Normally, openipmish redisplays the command line when an
      event comes in. This is nice for interactive use, but bad for scripting.
      This lets you turn that function on and off.
