Garret, I asked couple of Sun guys that are using ipmitool whether they see some possible interactions:
Kevin Song: ".. the two are independent ipmi client software." Hesam Kohanteb: "..These are 2 different clients of IPMI Stack. " Mehrdad Mojgani: "..what do they mean by two applications dependency other than using the same common driver path and destination. Wouldn't there is always a chance that applications can change what the other one has set if they don't get exclusive access? " Well, is the answer "ipmitool and freeipmi are two independent tools" satisfying? If not, I will use Mehrdad's words: "what exactly do you mean by application dependency"?
