You're missing a lot of package metadata in your spec file.
I suggest starting over, install rpmdevtools, use:
rpmdev-newspec -t minimal smipmicfg
It will create a file smipmicfg.spec, and it will be fully populated
with a mimimal spec file. You can probably just remove the %build
section entirely, and just use the %install section to extract the
contents of the tarball (or just create the dir and copy %{SOURCE0} to
%buildroot/opt/smipmicfg-1.20.0 if it's just one file and not a
tarball). It sounds like most of the problems you're having is that
you've got a fragment of a SPEC file and not the whole thing.
Don't build as root, let it build in your homedir (or use mock, but
lets leave that until you've got a basic RPM building). There's
absolutely no reason you should be building RPMs as root.
