Yes, the Supermicro PDSMi supports the IPMI 2.0 module and I can confirm that it works with the IPMI ported driver from current on 6.1. The module is optional so you will have to purchase one for the system, around 0. You will also need the latest BIOS loaded on the motherboard for it to work. http://www.supermicro.com/products/accessories/addon/AOC-IPMI20-E.cfm -- DaveD --Apple-Mail-1--461118532--
