Advanced Device Configuration > How the OnBoard Manages Communications With Devices > Command Templates

Command Templates
Command templates are stored in the /etc/onboard_templates.ini file. The command templates contain text commands that are used to interact with the service processors and devices.
The following table lists the default command templates and describes type types of devices to which they apply.
All templates in the onboard_template.ini file are listed in the Web Manager in the Config Æ Devices “Command template” pull-down menu.
If an administrator creates a new template, the new template automatically is added to the list the next time an administrative user logs into the Web Manager. An already-logged in administrative user can click the “Cancel changes” button to update the list.
The /etc/onboard_server.ini file stores the configuration parameters for each configured device, except for the username and password information for each device, which are stored in the /etc/onboard_server_auth.ini file. By default, neither file has any entries until devices are configured. The following screen example shows an example onboard_server.ini file that defines one device for each of the default template types.

Note that the device with IPMI_1.5 type does not have a template.
