NAME

6       freeipmi.conf - specify default values to FreeIPMI
7

DESCRIPTION

9       The  FreeIPMI  configuration  file can be used to set alternate default
10       values to many FreeIPMI tools so values don't have to be configured  on
11       the  command line.  This allows users to avoid typing in a long list of
12       command line options everytime a command is executed. It  can  also  be
13       used to hide usernames, passwords, and other sensitive information from
14       the ps(1) command.
15
16       Currently, the tools that can be configured with the configuration file
17       are:   bmc-device(8),  bmc-info(8),  bmc-watchdog(8),  ipmi-chassis(8),
18       ipmi-config(8),  ipmi-fru(8),  ipmi-oem(8),  ipmi-pet(8),  ipmi-raw(8),
19       ipmi-sel(8), ipmi-sensors(8), ipmiconsole(8), and ipmipower(8).
20
21       By     default,     the     configuration    file    is    stored    at
22       /etc/freeipmi//freeipmi.conf.  But users may select a different config‐
23       uration file at the command line with the --config-file option.
24
25       Values  specified on the command line override the configuration values
26       specified in the configuration file.
27

FORMAT

29       The configuration options that can be specified  in  the  configuration
30       file  are  listed  below. Each configuration option must be listed on a
31       separate line. Arguments for an option are separated by any  amount  of
32       whitespace.  Multiple arguments are also separated by whitespace.  Com‐
33       ments can be marked by using the pound sign ("#") character, and  lines
34       can be continued on the next using backslash ("\").
35
36       Note  that  it  is  possible  to  list the username, password and other
37       potentially sensitive information in the configuration  file.  If  this
38       data  is  stored  in a configuration file, system administrators should
39       limit access to this file.
40

GENERAL OPTIONS

42       The following options are options generally  available  to  all  tools,
43       although  specific  options may be ignored by some. (For example, ipmi‐
44       console(8) and  ipmipower(8)  do  not  perform  in-band  communication,
45       therefore  they  would  ignore in-band communication options. Similarly
46       bmc-watchdog(8) does not perform out-of-band  communication,  therefore
47       it would ignore all out-of-band options).
