[Bug 1156667] Re: Need driver support for IPMI device on OCPv2 Windmill

 

Hi Keve,

We've tried on 14.04 LTS (daily).  the inband management does not work
and the system locks when rebooting.

We did have the Ubuntu kernel team take a look.  While we get a module
packaged and working in dkms format (and the dcmitool compiled).

The question from the kernel team is why this has not been uptreamed, or
if it has can you let us know to enable the upstream functionality.

David
