In addition to the operations that can be performed by a user with user-level BMC user privileges, IPMI Shell allows a user with operator-level and administrator-level BMC user privileges to: • Power on, reset, or power cycle a managed system. • Simulate a hard power off on a managed system (forcing the system to turn off without shutting down the operating system). • Clear the system event log (SEL). • Turn the blinking system identification LED on or off. To facilitate command scripting, upon successful execution, IPMI Shell terminates with an exit code of zero, and will output the execution results in a parsable format. If an error is encountered, the program exits with a non-zero error code and outputs the error in a parsable format.

Using the BMC Management Utility
In addition to the operations that can be performed by a user with user-level
BMC user privileges, IPMI Shell allows a user with operator-level and
administrator-level BMC user privileges to:
•
Power on, reset, or power cycle a managed system.
•
Simulate a hard power off on a managed system (forcing the system to
turn off without shutting down the operating system).
•
Clear the system event log (SEL).
•
Turn the blinking system identification LED on or off.
To facilitate command scripting, upon successful execution, IPMI Shell
terminates with an exit code of zero, and will output the execution results in a
parsable format. If an error is encountered, the program exits with a non-zero
error code and outputs the error in a parsable format. See "BMC
Management Utility Error Codes" for a complete list of possible BMC
Management Utility error codes.
