NAME
     ipmidetect - list detected and/or undetected IPMI interfaces in a cluster

SYNOPSIS
     ipmidetect [OPTION...] [NODES...]

DESCRIPTION
     ipmidetect  lists	which  IPMI  nodes have been detected or undetected in a
     cluster.  This information is provided by the libipmidetect(3) library  and
     ipmidetectd(8) daemon.

     ipmidetect will output the status of each IPMI node configured with ipmide-
     tectd(8)  unless  they are specified on the command line. If the first node
     listed is "-", nodes will be read in from standard input. The nodes can  be
     listed  in  hostrange  format,  comma  separated  lists, or space separated
     lists. See the section below on HOSTRANGED SUPPORT for instructions on  how
     to  list  hosts in range format. The hostnames listed must be the shortened
     names of hostnames.

OPTIONS
     -h STRING, --hostname=STRING
	    server hostname (default=localhost)

     -p INT, --port=INT
	    server port (default=8649)

     -d, --detected
	    List only detected nodes

     -u, --undetected
	    List only undetected nodes

     -q, --hostrange
	    List nodes in hostrange format (default)

     -c, --comma
	    List nodes in comma separated list

     -n, --newline
	    List nodes in newline separated list

     -s, --space
	    List nodes in space separated list

     -V, --version
	    Print version and exit

HOSTRANGED SUPPORT
     Multiple hosts can be input either as an explicit comma separated lists  of
     hosts  or	a  range  of hostnames in the general form: prefix[n-m,l-k,...],
     where n < m and l < k, etc. The later form should not be confused with reg-
     ular expression character	classes  (also	denoted  by  []).  For	example,
     foo[19] does not represent foo1 or foo9, but rather represents a degenerate
     range: foo19.

     This  range  syntax  is meant only as a convenience on clusters with a pre-
     fixNN naming convention and specification of ranges should not  be  consid-
     ered  necessary -- the list foo1,foo9 could be specified as such, or by the
     range foo[1,9].

     Some examples of range usage follow:
	 foo[01-05] instead of foo01,foo02,foo03,foo04,foo05
	 foo[7,9-10] instead of foo7,foo9,foo10
	 foo[0-3] instead of foo0,foo1,foo2,foo3

     As a reminder to the reader, some shells will interpret brackets ([ and  ])
     for  pattern  matching. Depending on your shell, it may be necessary to en-
     close ranged lists within quotes.

DIAGNOSTICS
     The exit value of ipmidetect depends on the options performed on  the  com-
     mand  line.  If the default output is used, the exit value will be 0 if the
     command succeeds without error. If the --detected option is used and no un-
     detected nodes have been discovered, the exit value will  be  0.  If  unde-
     tected  nodes  are found, the exit value will be 1. If the --undetected op-
     tion is used and no detected nodes have been  discovered,	the  exit  value
     will  be  0.  If detected nodes are found, the exit value will be 1. On er-
     rors, the exit value will be 2.
