/dev/bmc missing in Solaris OS

 Hi,
I recently installed Oracle Hardware Management Pack on one of my servers, but the agents are not starting, complaining that /dev/bmc does not exist.

My environment is:
SunOS xxxx 5.10 Generic_144488-17 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V440


Here is the list of failed commands:

modinfo | grep bmc

(no bmc module installed in kernel.)

ipmitool chassis status
Could not open bmc device: No such file or directory
Error sending Chassis Status command

How can I enable BMC driver in Solaris 10, running on Sun-Fire-V440?

Best Regards,

Howdy, Stranger!
