OK, I've build qemu and openipmi.  I'm simulating a system where a central
control node boots from USB, then uses IPMI to boot a cluster of slave
nodes and provisions them by tftpboot.  If I understand correctly, I'll be
running one ipmi_sim per slave node, and my control node will tell that to
boot a qemu instance for each slave.  Sounds good so far?

The sample lan.conf has two sections started by set_working_mc 0x20
and set_working_mc 0x30.  Is that for configuring multiple ipmi simulators
in a single config file?

Thanks a lot for all your work.
