NAME
     ipmi -- Intelligent Platform Management Interface driver

SYNOPSIS
     ipmi0 at mainbus?

DESCRIPTION
     The ipmi device driver supports motherboards implementing the Intelligent Platform Management Interface version 1.5 or 2.0, and exports sen-
     sors and the watchdog through the envsys(4) interface.

EVENTS
     The ipmi driver is able to send events to powerd(8) when a sensor's state has changed.  Intrusion sensors will send a critical event when
     state is not ok.  Power Supply sensors will send a critical event when the Power Supply unit is not installed and warning-over when the Power
     Supply unit is installed but not powered on.  Fan, temperature and voltage sensors will send critical-over or critical-under when the value
     is very critical, or warning-over or warning-under if it's in a warning alert.

SEE ALSO
     envsys(4), envstat(8), powerd(8), wdogctl(8)
