+.TH IDCMI 8 "Version 1.0: 02 Feb 2012"
+.SH NAME
+ipmiutil_dcmi \- handle DCMI functions
+
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B "ipmiutil dcmi [-admsx -NUPREFTVY] <function>
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This
+.I ipmiutil dcmi
+subcommand handles DCMI command functions according to the DCMI
+specification.
+
+This utility can use either the /dev/ipmi0 driver from OpenIPMI,
+the /dev/imb driver from Intel, the /dev/ipmikcs driver from valinux,
+direct user-space IOs, or the IPMI LAN interface if \-N.
+
+.SH OPTIONS
+Command line options are described below.
+.IP "-a string"
+Set the DCMI Asset Tag to this string.
+.IP "-d string"
+Set the DCMI MC ID to this string.
+.IP "-m 002000"
+Target a specific MC (e.g. bus 00, sa 20, lun 00).
+This could be used for PICMG or ATCA blade systems.
+The trailing character, if present, indicates SMI addressing if 's',
+or IPMB addressing if 'i' or not present.
+.IP "-s"
+When getting info, also get the DCMI sensor information.
+.IP "-x"
+Causes extra debug messages to be displayed.
+.IP "-N nodename"
+Nodename or IP address of the remote target system. If a nodename is
+specified, IPMI LAN interface is used. Otherwise the local system
+management interface is used.
+.IP "-U rmt_user"
+Remote username for the nodename given. The default is a null username.
+.IP "-P/-R rmt_pswd"
+Remote password for the nodename given. The default is a null password.
+.IP "-E"
+Use the remote password from Environment variable IPMI_PASSWORD.
+.IP "-F drv_t"
+Force the driver type to one of the followng:
+imb, va, open, gnu, landesk, lan, lan2, lan2i, kcs, smb.
+Note that lan2i means lan2 with intelplus.
+The default is to detect any available driver type and use it.
+.IP "-J"
+Use the specified LanPlus cipher suite (0 thru 17): 0=none/none/none,
+1=sha1/none/none, 2=sha1/sha1/none, 3=sha1/sha1/cbc128, 4=sha1/sha1/xrc4_128,
+5=sha1/sha1/xrc4_40, 6=md5/none/none, ... 14=md5/md5/xrc4_40.
+Default is 3.
+.IP "-T"
+Use a specified IPMI LAN Authentication Type: 0=None, 1=MD2, 2=MD5, 4=Straight Password, 5=OEM.
+.IP "-V"
+Use a specified IPMI LAN privilege level. 1=Callback level, 2=User level, 3=Operator level, 4=Administrator level (default), 5=OEM level.
+.IP "-Y"
+Yes, do prompt the user for the IPMI LAN remote password.
+Alternatives for the password are \-E or \-P.
+
+.SH FUNCTIONS
+
+.IP "info"
+Get DCMI Capabilities, MC ID, and Asset Tag. This is the default function
+if no function was specified.

+(where action = no_action | power_off | log_sel)
+.IP "power set_correction"
+Set Power limit correction time (in ms)
+.IP "power set_sample"
+Set Power limit sampling period (in sec)
+.IP "power activate"
+Activate Power limit
+.IP "power deactivate"
+Deactivate Power limit
+
+
