Dell iDRAC / IPMI (ipmitool)

v0.1.0

Out-of-band BMC monitoring and power control over IPMI 2.0 (RMCP+/lanplus) with ipmitool — sensor data records, full sensor readings with thresholds, the System Event Log (SEL) and its summary, chassis + power state, FRU inventory, BMC firmware (mc info) and self-test, LAN config, and DCMI power draw. Plus gated mutators: chassis power control, one-time boot device, and SEL clear. Targets a Dell iDRAC or any IPMI-over-LAN baseboard controller by hostname/IP; credentials come from the runner environment. Reads are read-only.

Actions

Required binaries. Install these on the host before relying on the pack — an action that calls a missing one fails at run time.

Install

emisar pack install validates the pack and verifies its content hash before copying it into /etc/emisar/packs. The --hash below pins the install to the exact bytes on this page — a tampered copy is rejected. After install, reload the runner; it re-reads the catalog and advertises every action.

content hash: sha256:b592ffe241b05b9f77a4506f31cca020f639e741846fbb700e09979ad101a1cc

on the runner host

sudo emisar pack install dell-ipmi \
  --hash sha256:b592ffe241b05b9f77a4506f31cca020f639e741846fbb700e09979ad101a1cc \
  --dest /etc/emisar/packs

# Reload so the runner re-reads the catalog:
sudo systemctl reload emisar
