I needed to use Intel’s Data Center Manageability Interface program to interface with IPMI that does not have a dedicated controller, so we needed to use software emulation. Two issues that we had were:
- The binaries provided on their website didn’t work due to needing older libraries that had deprecated functions in them.
- Source code didn’t compile because of those same libraries that were missing.
I’m including a patch for DCMI_Conformance.cpp that will allow it to compile on Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit. The source came from ipdc-1-5-0-31-0-src.tar.gz, which was downloaded from Intels site. Just make sure that you have the dev libraries installed for ncurses and libssl.
