Let's review the questions you posed: 1) Is there a method to test ipmiutil without a physical IPMI server? A: The purpose of ipmiutil is to support physical IPMI servers, but it may work with the simulators for functions that do not require two-byte sensors (outside the IPMI standard). 2) What is the 'driverless' option in ipmiutil? Normally, when configuring IPMI on a server, it is run locally, and a driver is required for the OS to talk to the IPMI firmware. Key drivers: openipmi (Linux), imb...

There are some ipmiutil commands that do not require sensor ids which should work with the simulators (like health, reset, wdt), but if the command to the simulator requires two bytes for sensors, it currently won't work with ipmiutil. It would be a large effort to add support for two-byte sensor ids throughout the code. The purpose of IPMI is to manage physical servers with IPMI firmware.
I'm not familiar with IPMISIM, but I know that Corey Minyard wrote ipmi_sim, and he has been a key developer in IPMI for a long time. I don't know much about the IPMI simulators, except that some of them have gone beyond the IPMI spec (expanded the number of sensors beyond one byte). I deal mostly with IPMI firmware.
FYI, you can see the actual version of ipmiutil.exe each time you run it (3.1.9 will show as 3.19).
Apparently with the 3.1.9 MSI, I must have not updated that instance of the version number from 3.1.8 to 3.1.9. Sorry for the confusion.
It could be an issue with specifying the field, or a restriction built into the firmware. If you could send the ifru debug output for this command adding -x, we should be able to find the cause.

Is it helpful for "InstantEvents" so i can manage the staff and other crew members.
