Re: [Ipmitool-devel] IPMI Unable to ping

[Choi, P. <pau...@lm...>]

Thx for replying

 

Is the IPMI LAN channel enabled?

'Ipmitool -I open lan set 1 access on' Is this good enough to enable
channel?

Is the admin user enabled for the LAN channel?

How do I do this? 'ipmitool -I open lan set 1 user ADMIN' ?

Is the BMC IPMI 1.5 or IPMI 2.0?  

IPMI 2.0

 

Sorry if these basic questions. I am kind of new on ipmitool.

 

Thx again

Three things to check:

Is the IPMI LAN channel enabled?

Is the admin user enabled for the LAN channel?

Is the BMC IPMI 1.5 or IPMI 2.0?

Hi

 

I set IPMI up in RedHat 4 and now I am trying it in RedHat5 (with
different machines). I can set mac, ip, etc using ipmitool but I can't
access it from outside. It won't ping and if I do:

#ipmitool chassis power status -I lanplus -U ADMIN -P ADMIN -H
10.2.12.124

Error: Unable to establish IPMI v2 / RMCP+ session

Unable to get Chassis Power Status.

 

 

Here is my setting:

                        :     u=USER

                        :     o=OPERATOR

                        :     a=ADMIN

                        :     O=OEM

 

 

This is the exact setting from my previous IPMI card. It has no problem
pinging (of course not from itself). I checked ip and mac address of the
NIC but they are different. I looked at BIOS, and it looks like my older
IPMI servers. 

Am I missing something? 

Oh here is HWs that I am using:

Supermicro H8DA3-2 with AOC-SIMLC

Supermicro H8DMU+ with AOC-SIMSO

 

Unfortunately, using old IPMI card on new board isn't an option (won't
fit). 

 

Thx
