DESCRIPTION

13       ipmiutil  reset is a program that uses IPMI commands to perform a hard‐
14       ware reset of the chassis, or boot to a specific device.  This  utility
15       can use either the /dev/ipmi0 driver from OpenIPMI, the /dev/imb driver
16       from Intel, the /dev/ipmikcs driver  from  valinux,  direct  user-space
17       IOs, or the IPMI LAN interface if -N.
