Considerations

  • bmc/ipmi seems to prefer to be on primary network interface, using a DIFFERENT ip from the actual network

Tools

Scan network for ipmi

http://fish2.com/ipmi/tools/ztools.html or better yet: https://github.com/zenfish/ipmi

HOWTO

ssh shell

https://iamsto.wordpress.com/2022/12/06/cheatsheet-ipmi-ssh-cli-commands/

Configuring IPMI

IPMI Network configuration

Check ipmi network settings

ipmitool -I open lan print 1

or just 

ipmitool lan print 1

Check lan/network configuration

ipmitool -I open lan print


Set network to dhcp

ipmitool lan set 1 ipsrc dhcp

Set network to static

ipmitool lan set 1 ipsrc static

Change ip address

ipmitool lan print 1
ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr x.x.x.x
ipmitool lan set 1 netmask 255.255.255.0
ipmitool lan set 1 defgw ipaddr x.x.x.x


Add vlan ID

ipmitool lan set 1 vlan id 22

Managing users

List users

ipmitool user list 1

Change password

2 is usually ADMIN 

ipmitool user set password 2


Show user privilege level

ipmitool channel getaccess 1 3

Reading status

( also see http://sources.redhat.com/cluster/wiki/IPMI_FencingConfig)

Simple status check

ipmitool -I lanplus -H <IPADDR> -U root -P changeme chassis status

Get some hints about commands

ipmitool -I open help

 

List all sensors

ipmitool -I lanplus -H <IPADDR> -U root -P changeme sdr elist full

or 

 ipmitool -I lanplus -H <IPADDR> -U root -P changeme sensor


Serial console over LAN

ipmitool -U root -I lanplus -H 10.0.0.91 sol activate

Boot a remote box

ipmitool -U root -I lanplus -H 10.0.0.91 chassis power on

 

Sensor information

ipmitool -I open sensor

PSU status

ipmitool -I open sdr type "Power Supply" Status

 

Shut down a remote box

ipmitool -U root -I lanplus -H 10.0.0.91 chassis power off
ipmittool -U root -H 10.0.0.91 -E shell

On freeBsd

kldload ipmi


Sensors

System temperature

Air inlet temperatue

Peripheral temperature

Air outlet temperature

FAQ

ipmitool

Error: Unable to establish IPMI v2 / RMCP+ session

You might have firmware that doesn't support IPMI v2/ RMCP+

Try -I lan instead of -I lanplus



ipmitool user list

Get User Access command failed (channel 14, user 1): Invalid data field in request.

Unable to send IPMI presence ping packet

yeah, could be anything again

IPMI LAN send command failed

Unable to send IPMI presence ping packet

IPMI command failed: Request data field length limit exceeded

If you're trying to set a password, try a more complex password.

ipmitool -v Get Auth Capabilities error

could be firmware/version issue


Info: SOL payload already active on another session

Try sol deactivate

Set Session Privilege Level to ADMINISTRATOR failed: Unknown (0x80)

You're probably trying to connect as user, so try 

ipmitool -L USER ....
