Question
Is there any utility where I can set the IPMI Date/Time settings to NTP.
I don't want to use Web interface as I have a lot of servers. I use ipmitool to set the date time of ipmi card. But setting it to NTP is not supported by ipmitool. Do you have any tool to do this from command line?

Answer
No, currently you may use smcipmitool and use flag:
ntp [NTP2]
to set up NTP with cmm modules only.
For example: In Windows OS:
SMCIPMITOOL 192.168.1.100 ADMIN ADMIN cmm 1 ntp 6 time.windows.com
But for other standard ipmi cards, you would need to use IPMIView to do so, there is no CLI command to set up NTP in SMCIPMITool.
