This was created for testing IPMI related features in Apache CloudStack.

The tool ships with default sets of users for ease of use:

ID  Name       Callin  Link Auth  IPMI Msg   Channel Priv Limit
1   admin            true    true       true       ADMINISTRATOR
2   operator         true    false      false      OPERATOR
3   user             true    true       true       USER

The default passwords are:

admin  : password
opuser : oppassword
user   : userpassword

Installation:

pip install --upgrade ipmisim

Running:

ipmisim 3000  # Runs on custom port 3000, else 9001 by default

For, usage in integration tests you can import the server module and create a server:

from ipmisim.ipmisim import IpmiServer
import socketserver

port = 3000
server = SocketServer.UDPServer(('0.0.0.0', port), IpmiServer)
server.serve_forever()

For testing BMC power state, you can inspect IpmiServerContext().bmc.powerstate For more details see server usage ipmisim/ipmisim.py

Testing with ipmitool:

ipmitool -I lanplus -H localhost -p 9001 -R1 -U admin -P password chassis power status
