Yes, the Supermicro PDSMi supports the IPMI 2.0 module and I can confirm that it works with the IPMI ported driver from current on 6.1. The module is optional so you will have to purchase one for the system, around 0. You will also need the latest BIOS loaded on the motherboard for it to work. http://www.supermicro.com/products/accessories/addon/AOC-IPMI20-E.cfm
What about their other IPMI 2.0 cards: http://www.supermicro.com/products/accessories/addon/SIM.cfm Specifically the AOC-SIMLP? and what ported IPMI driver are we talking about? Also does anyone have an IPMI primer, I've never used it before? -- BSD Podcasts @: http://bsdtalk.blogspot.com/ http://freebsdforall.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
