Improved IPMI Tools and Panic Handler capabilities for enhanced system management and troubleshooting.
The showsel utility allows users to display the firmware System Event Log records. On the other hand, pefconfig allows users to configure the Platform Event Filter table, which includes the BMC LAN alerts from OS Critical Stop messages, as well as to display and set the BMC LAN configuration parameters. Tmconfig is a utility that allows users to display and configure the serial port for BMC access.
In addition, the fruconfig utility allows users to display decoded FRU board/product information and write FRU asset tags. Meanwhile, hwreset is responsible for hard resetting the system. Sensor utility displays the sensor data records and fru data. Alarms, on the other hand, shows and sets the Telco alarms while wdt allows users to show and set the watchdog timer via IPMI.
Lastly, the package includes various files such as COPYING, which is a BSD license for copying ipmiutil utilities, README, which is a ReadMe for ipmiutil utilities, and UserGuide, which serves as a user guide for the said utilities. The checksel script is also included, which uses showsel to check the SEL, write to syslog, and clear the SEL if needed.
Overall, the ipmiutil package is a useful tool for accessing and configuring firmware System Event Log and Platform Event Filter table with its multiple utilities and user guide.
