I have no idea what those things are, so I don't know. I don't think I
know of any need for them. But vendors have all kinds of crazy names
for IPMI.
If they are IPMI management controllers, they idea is to allow you to
configure the virtual IPMI interface to have the SDRs, sensors, FRU
data, etc. that you need to emulate them. That configuration is
non-trivial; writing SDRs really sucks.
