NAME
     ipmidetectd - IPMI node detection monitoring daemon

SYNOPSIS
     ipmidetectd [OPTION...]

DESCRIPTION
     The ipmidetectd daemon regularly sends out IPMI pings to determine if nodes
     have  functioning IPMI interfaces or not. It is primarily used to determine
     those nodes in the cluster that are not functioning properly, allowing IPMI
     commands to be executed across the cluster faster by skipping  those  nodes
     that would automatically timeout.

     The  ipmidetectd daemon must be configured using the ipmidetectd configura-
     tion file. Until hosts to be pinged are configured,  ipmidetectd  will  not
     function properly.

     See the ipmidetectd.conf(5) manpage for additional information.
