The IPMI -> specification defines a set of interfaces for platform management and is implemented by a number vendors for system -> management. The features of IPMI that most users will be interested in are sensor monitoring, system event monitoring, -> power control, and serial-over-LAN (SOL). - -## Installing the FreeIPMI plugin - -When using our official DEB/RPM packages, the FreeIPMI plugin is included in a separate package named -`netdata-plugin-freeipmi` which needs to be manually installed using your system package manager. It is not -installed automatically due to the large number of dependencies it requires. - -When using a static build of Netdata, the FreeIPMI plugin will be included and installed automatically, though -you will still need to have FreeIPMI installed on your system to be able to use the plugin. - -When using a local build of Netdata, you need to ensure that the FreeIPMI development packages (typically -called `libipmimonitoring-dev`, `libipmimonitoring-devel`, or `freeipmi-devel`) are installed when building Netdata. - -### Special Considerations - -Accessing IPMI requires root access, so the FreeIPMI plugin is automatically installed setuid root. - -FreeIPMI does not work correctly on IBM POWER systems, thus Netdata’s FreeIPMI plugin is not usable on such systems. - -If you have not previously used IPMI on your system, you will probably need to run the `ipmimonitoring` command as root -to initiailze IPMI settings so that the Netdata plugin works correctly. It should return information about available -seensors on the system. - -In some distributions `libipmimonitoring.pc` is located in a non-standard directory, which -can cause building the plugin to fail when building Netdata from source. In that case you -should find the file and link it to the standard pkg-config directory. Usually, running `sudo ln -s -/usr/lib/$(uname -m)-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libipmimonitoring.pc/libipmimonitoring.pc /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libipmimonitoring.pc` -resolves this issue. - -## Metrics - -The plugin does a speed test when it starts, to find out the duration needed by the IPMI processor to respond. Depending -on the speed of your IPMI processor, charts may need several seconds to show up on the dashboard. - -Metrics grouped by *scope*. - -The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels. - -### global - -These metrics refer to the monitored host. - -This scope has no labels. - -Metrics: - -| Metric | Dimensions | Unit | -|----------|:----------:|:------:| -| ipmi.sel | events | events | - -### sensor - -These metrics refer to the sensor. - -Labels: - -| Label | Description | -|-----------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| -| sensor | Sensor name.
