I've never tried to update my SuperMicro motherboard BIOS's through IPMI before but it appears you need a license to use this feature? Can someone comment on how this license is obtained and if it's even worth it?
If memory serves you also need some kind of activation server or management app or something, right?The part number is SFT-OOB-LIC. It seems to generally be about $20.
Ahh. Guess I don't know this part of the industry well. My work keeps me above the hardware level. Home is where I pretend to be like you all.Because it's industry standard to pay for that, and usually more... SM already gives out more 'free' than others at the $0 cost/entry level management.
