ipmitool and svcadm in solaris

balakodoth · 12-14-2010, 12:52 AM

can anyone tell what output does ipmitool and svcadm gives? I guess this command should be in /usr/sbin/ directory
is there any equivalent command for this in Linux ?

svcadm issues requests for actions on services executing
within the service management facility (see smf(5)). Actions
for a service are carried out by its assigned service res-
tarter agent. The default service restarter is svc.startd
(see svc.startd(1M)).

svcadm's functions are probably done by "service" and "chkconfig", but SMF doesn't have a good equivalent on Linux.

Some of svcadm is done with the 'service' and 'chkconfig' commands, but SMF doesn't have a good equivalent on Linux.

Yes, the linux equivalent to ipmitool is "ipmitool".

Install the openipmi and ipmitool packages. Check Google.

Is it not possible to re-post a question in different forum if we didn't get an answer from the first forum?

The answer for everyone who was wondering
No, that is double posting & is not allowed.
Use the report mechanism:
To get your thread moved, report it -- yes, report yourself -- & just ask. Something like: "Please move to <name of forum>" is enough.
