IPMItool 1.8.8 for Microsoft Windows 2003 with Sun IPMI System Management Driver Support

IPMItool 1.8.8 for Microsoft Windows 2003 with Sun IPMI System Management Driver Support provides the open-source IPMItool application built natively for Microsoft Windows 2003.

This version adds two interfaces to ipmitool: (1) "ms" – allows communication over the KCS interface using the IPMI driver included in the Hardware Management add-on in the R2 Windows 2003 release; and (2) "ism" – allows communication over the KCS interface using the Sun IPMI System Management (ISM) Driver, for use in Windows 2003 systems where R2 is not installed. This driver can be downloaded here.

Also provided in this release is ipmived, which can be used to receive ILOM events over the KCS interface and write them to the Windows System Event Log. Refer to the README.pdf in this distribution for information on installing and using ipmievd.
