ipmitool -I lanplus -H <IPADDR> -U root -P changeme chassis status

Get some hints about commands

ipmitool -I open help

 

List all sensors

ipmitool -I lanplus -H <IPADDR> -U root -P changeme sdr elist full

or

 ipmitool -I lanplus -H <IPADDR> -U root -P changeme sensor


Check ipmi

ipmitool -I open lan print 1

Check lan/network configuration

ipmitool -I open lan print

Serial console over LAN

ipmitool -U root -I lanplus -H 10.0.0.91 sol activate

Boot a remote box

ipmitool -U root -I lanplus -H 10.0.0.91 chassis power on

 

Sensor information

ipmitool -I open sensor

PSU status

ipmitool -I open sdr type "Power Supply" Status

 

Shut down a remote box

ipmitool -U root -I lanplus -H 10.0.0.91 chassis power off
ipmittool -U root -H 10.0.0.91 -E shell

On freeBsd
