I downloaded a CentOS RPM for openipmi and extracted the file

  /etc/sysconfig/ipmi

I copied this file to

  /etc/default/openipmi

as Kipp suggested and made the following edits to

  /etc/init.d/openipmi

Line 35: Changed

  CONFIGFILE=/etc/sysconfig/ipmi

to

  CONFIGFILE=/etc/default/openipmi

to source correct configuration file.

Line 68: Changed

  LOCKFILE=/var/lock/subsys/ipmi

to

  LOCKFILE=/var/lock/ipmi

for the location of the ipmi lockfile.

I tested this by rebooting the system and it works, the ipmi_devintf and ipmi_si kernel modules load, /dev/ipmi0 is created and the lockfile is created at /var/lock/ipmi. Attached is a copy of the ipmi config file I installed at /etc/default/openipmi
