Supermicro Smash power management commands don’t work

bmcipmisupermicro

SMASH power management commands don't work for me.

For example, I've tried the following in attempt to power on the chassis:

start /system1/pwrmgtsvc1

It says "start..done." but the server chassis is not powered on. Same thing when I tried it for stop/reset as well.

Turns out this was an IPMI firmware issue. Contact Supermicro for the latest firmware to fix the problem.
