The Linux ipmitool
is fully documented in the
Linux "man page". The command man
ipmitool
provides extended documentation beyond the scope of
this guide. To use the Linux ipmitool
from the Linux operating
system to locally monitor a system, the IPMI drivers must be
enabled. Typical "in band" commands include the following:
To retrieve the general status of iLO 3:
# ipmitool mc

To retrieve the status of iLO 3 monitored sensors
# ipmitool
sensor list
To retrieve the contents of the IPMI System Event Log (SEL)
