IPMI Extended Instruction
The options of this feature are
Enabled
and Disabled. When this feature is Disabled, the
system powers on quickly by removing BIOS support for IPMI extended instruction features.
The boot up time is faster when the option is Disabled. When this feature is disabled, the
user cannot use Supermicro Update Manager (SUM) OOB (out of band) to update the BIOS,
nor utilize the extended IPMI features such as AOC and PCIe sensor readings, and the BMC
network configuration in the BIOS setup is also disabled. The general BMC function like
fan control and motherboard health monitor that offer the basic sensor reading of the CPU,
system memory, and some onboard devices still function. The user can use Supermicro IPMI
utilities such as IPMICFG and IPMIVIEW for sensor readings and to know what the normal
sensor output information is. The user needs to wait for one minute after the system powers
on completely to obtain readings from those two sensors.
