BMC/PM Change Role

The BMC/PM Change Role command switches between the role of a BMC/PM. As a result its I2C
addresses on IPMB0 and IPMB1 are configured to 0x20. Any message addressed to the system
management software are passed to the host interface. The system management software
must ensure that only one BMC is in the system. SDR will be updated to reflect I2C address
changes.

The role of BMC/PM can also be defined via the onboard DIP switches. For a description refer to
the Configuring the Board section.
