FILE STRUCTURE

33       Blank lines and lines starting with `#' are ignored.
34
35
36       The following commands are allowed the configuration file:
37
38
39       name "name"
40              Set a name for the BMC.  This will control  other  things,  like
41              the  default  value of the ipmi_sim startup command file and the
42              place where persistent data is stored.
43
44
45       user usernum enabled username password max-priv max-session
46              usernum specifies the user number for the user.  Note that  user
47              number  0  is  invalid, and user number 1 is the special "anony‐
48              mous" user, whose username is ignored.  This value may be up  to
49              63,  the  maximum  possible  IPMI  user.   If you want anonymous
50              access, you must have a user number 1.
51
52              enabled is a boolean that specified whether the user is  enabled
53              or not.
54
55              username specifies the name of the user, specified as a name.
56
57              password  specifies  the  password  of  the user, specified as a
58              name.
59
60              max-priv specifies the maximum privilege level allowed  for  the
61              user.
62
63              max.sessions  specifies  the  maximum number of session the user
64              may open.
65
66
67       startcmd "cmd"
68              specifies a command to execute when a  power  on  is  requested.
69              This  lets  a  virtual  machine be started that can then connect
70              back to the simulator.  The simulator  does  management  of  the
71              process  here,  and the power on state of the process depends on
72              if the process exists or not.  If a poweroff  is  requested,  if
73              the  process  is  connected to a VM serial interface, a graceful
74              shutdown is first requested.  If the process does not  terminate
75              in a specified amount of time, a SIGTERM is sent to the process.
76              The SIGTERM is sent immediately if there is no  connection.   If
77              the  process doesn't go way in another specified amount of time,
78              a SIGKILL is sent.
