DESCRIPTION
Theipmi device driver supports motherboards
implementing the Intelligent Platform Management Interface version 1.5 or 2.0,
and exports sensors and the watchdog through the
envsys(4) interface.
EVENTS
The ipmi driver is able to send events to
powerd(8) when a sensor's state has changed. Intrusion sensors will
send a critical event when state is not ok. Power Supply
sensors will send a critical event when the Power Supply
unit is not installed and warning-over when the Power
Supply unit is installed but not powered on. Fan, temperature and voltage
sensors will send
critical-over
or
critical-under
when the value is very critical, or warning-over or
warning-under
if it's in a warning alert.
