NAME

       libipmimonitoring - a library for IPMI system event and sensor monitoring

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ipmi_monitoring.h>

DESCRIPTION

       The  libipmimonitoring implements a high level sensor and system event monitoring API. For system events,
       an iterator interface is provided that allows the user to iterate through system events,  types,  states,
       and  more.  For  sensors,  an iterator and callback interface is provided that allows the user to iterate
       through sensor values, types, units, states, and more.

       In order to improve efficiency, SDR data will be cached  on  the  host.   By  default  it  is  cached  in
       /var/cache/ipmimonitoringsdrcache.

       Interpretation rules for system events and sensors are guided by libfreeipmi(3)'s interpretation library.
       Configuration   of   the   interpretation   rules   can   be   configurd   via   the  configuration  file
       /etc/freeipmi//freeipmi_interpret_sel.conf.    and   /etc/freeipmi//freeipmi_interpret_sensor.conf    See
       freeipmi_interpret_sel.conf(5)  and freeipmi_interpret_sensor.conf(5) for more information on configuring
       sensor and system event interpretations.
