IPMI Event Messages

This section is a quick reference for IPMI events. Topic covered are:

• BMC fpl Format

• MP Log Output Format

• Type 2 and Type E0 Records

• Generator IDs

• Sensor Types

• Event Types

BMC fpl Format

The fpl command shows the forward progress log.

Here is an example of a FPL format followed by a description of the columns of

information:

Column One: is the 32-bit Record ID.

Column Two: is Record Type of either 02 or E0.

Column Three: is the timestamp in time_t format. It is blank if there is no timestamp.

Column Four: is the E0 severity information. It is a “-” for a type 2 event.

Column Five: is the Generator ID. It is one byte for a type-E0 event (00-03 are CPU IDs). It is

two bytes for a type-2 event. In this example, C1:00 indicates an event

generated by system ﬁrmware. BMC-generated events are in the form of

20:XX, where XX is the Sensor ID.

Column Six: is event data. For a type-E0 event, it is the event ID, a 20-bit number. For a

type-2 event, it is the event triplet, three bytes (XX:YY:ZZ) representing the

Sensor Type (XX), the Event Type Code (YY), and the Data1 byte (ZZ). The low

nibble of ZZ is the event offset, the high nibble describes whether Data2 and/or

Data3 contain valid information.

Column Seven: is the event-speciﬁc data.
