By using the ARMC/3P IPMI facilities you have an additional way to power on or off
the system or to perform a hard reset. Furthermore, it provides the possibility to
show an event log of the host system and the status of some system sensors (i.e.
temperature). If your host system supports IPMI, you can access it by one of the
following ways:
IPMI over IPMB
•
IPMI over LAN (IPMI V1.5 is required)
•
IPMI Settings
Figure 85 shows the ARMC/3P IPMI settings panel. Its options will be explained
below.
IPMI disabled
Disables IPMI on the ARMC/3P. This means that Status (for example sensor
and temperature information) via IPMI and Event Log via IPMI are not
available.
IPMI over IPMB
This connection type uses an IPMB cable connected from the 1x5pin IPMB
connector on the ARMC/3P card to the 3/4pin IPMB/I2C connector on the
motherboard. IPMI over IPMB does not need any passwords. This access
mode allows only power on/off and reset function. Status and Event Log via
IPMI are disabled.
IPMI over LAN
You can connect the IPMI over a LAN connection, too. The prerequisite for
