ipmiutil_fwum - Update IPMC using Kontron OEM Firmware Update
Manager
ipmiutil fwum [-mixNUPREFJTVY] parameters
This ipmiutil fwum subcommand updates IPMC firmware using
Kontron OEM Firmware Update Manager.
This utility can use either the /dev/ipmi0 driver from OpenIPMI,
the /dev/imb driver from Intel, the /dev/ipmikcs driver from valinux, direct
user-space IOs, or the IPMI LAN interface if -N.
Command line options are described below.
- -i 00
- This option specifies a specific FRU ID to show. The input value should be
in hex (0b, 1a, etc.), as shown from the sensor SDR output. The default
FRU ID is zero (0).
- -m 002000
- Show FRU for a specific MC (e.g. bus 00, sa 20, lun 00). This could be
used for PICMG or ATCA blade systems. The trailing character, if present,
indicates SMI addressing if 's', or IPMB addressing if 'i' or not
present.
- -x
- Causes extra debug messages to be displayed.
- -N nodename
- Nodename or IP address of the remote target system. If a nodename is
specified, IPMI LAN interface is used. Otherwise the local system
management interface is used.

- -F drv_t
- Force the driver type to one of the followng: imb, va, open, gnu, landesk,
lan, lan2, lan2i, kcs, smb. Note that lan2i means lan2 with intelplus. The
default is to detect any available driver type and use it.
- -J
- Use the specified LanPlus cipher suite (0 thru 17): 0=none/none/none,
1=sha1/none/none, 2=sha1/sha1/none, 3=sha1/sha1/cbc128,
4=sha1/sha1/xrc4_128, 5=sha1/sha1/xrc4_40, 6=md5/none/none, ...
14=md5/md5/xrc4_40. Default is 3.
- -T

4=Straight Password, 5=OEM.
- -V
