libipmidetect3
A library of functions to determine if a node is detected or undetected
Usage
#include <ipmidetect.h>
ipmidetect_t ipmidetect_handle_create(void);
int ipmidetect_handle_destroy(ipmidetect_t handle);
int ipmidetect_load_data(ipmidetect_t handle, const char *hostname, int port, int timeout_len);
int ipmidetect_errnum(ipmidetect_t handle);
char *ipmidetect_strerror(int errnum);
char *ipmidetect_errormsg(ipmidetect_t handle);
void ipmidetect_perror(ipmidetect_t handle, const char *msg);
int ipmidetect_get_detected_nodes_string(ipmidetect_t handle, char *buf, int buflen);
int ipmidetect_get_undetected_nodes_string(ipmidetect_t handle, char *buf, int buflen);
int ipmidetect_is_node_detected(ipmidetect_t handle, const char *node);
int ipmidetect_is_node_undetected(ipmidetect_t handle, const char *node);
Overview
Libipmidetect implements a high level API for determining which nodes in a cluster do or do-not support IPMI. This library is primarily useful for detecting when nodes are removed from a cluster for servicing, so that IPMI applications can avoid unnecessary timeouts. The library interacts with the ipmidetectd(8) daemon.
