Topic

Updated OpenIPMI packages that resolve an issue are now available

Description

OpenIPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) provides command line
tools and utilities to access platform information, allowing system
administrators to monitor system health and manage systems.

This update addresses the following problem:

  • some IPMI-enabled hardware uses UDP ports 623 (ASF Remote Management and

Control Protocol) and 664 (ASF Secure Remote Management and Control
Protocol), which can conflict with other traffic on these ports. The
previous OpenIPMI release added a configuration file -- /etc/xinetd.d/rmcp

  • - for a dummy rmcp service and introduced an xinetd service dependency to

bind UDP ports 623 and 664 and prevent other services from using them.

Because the xinetd service is started by default, the update resulted in a
new xinetd daemon running on systems after OpenIPMI was updated. This
daemon is not necessary for OpenIPMI operation.

This update removes the dependency on xinetd but leaves the dummy rmcp
service configuration file in place. (BZ#527474)

All OpenIPMI users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages which
remove this dependency. If the previous OpenIPMI update started an
unnecessary xinetd service, stopping and removing this service is also
recommended.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
