When I execute natively ipmiutil command in a windows machine which is not support ipmi,the command is blocked and cannot exit or kill.Is there any way to set timeout?

That is strange. As a workaround, I'm sure you could kill it with Task Manager. If there is no IPMI driver loaded, it will not do that. My guess is that this is a Microsoft IPMI driver problem. If the system does not support IPMI, the Microsoft ipmidrv.sys driver may have issues.
Please refer to ipmiutil UserGuide section 5.1 for known MS IPMI driver bugs and how to uninstall the MS IPMI driver. https://ipmiutil.sourceforge.net/docs/UserGuide. Microsoft has not responded to these bugs so far.
Please retest to confirm that this resolves it and let me know. Which version of Windows is this?

Apparently this was either a Microsoft IPMI driver problem or uninstalling the MS IPMI driver resolved it.
