Using the Ipmitool Management Server

IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface), the Intelligent Platform management interface, is the next-generation common interface standard that makes hardware management "intelligent". IPMI monitors the physical characteristics of the server, such as temperature, voltage, fan operating status, power supply, and chassis intrusion. The biggest advantage of IPMI is that it is independent of the CPU BIOS and OS, so the user can monitor the server as soon as it is powered on or off. IPMI is a standard, the most important physical part of which is the BMC (baseboard Management Controller), an embedded management microcontroller, which corresponds to the entire platform management of the "brain", It enables IPMI to monitor the data of individual sensors and log various events.

Ipmitool is an IPMI platform management tool that can be used as a command line in a Linux system that supports the IPMI 1.5 specification (the latest specification is IPMI 2.0), which enables the acquisition of sensor information, the display of system log content, and network remote switching machines. There are two ways to implement IPMI management of servers with Ipmitool:

① monitoring of local servers via OS;

② monitor remote servers over the network.

Well, here are the more frequent operations that are used daily,

#  turn on the IPMI service and set the on self-boot [[email protected] ~]# service ipmi start[[email  protected] ~]# chkconfig ipmi on#  to set the IPMI address for Channel 1 to static mode, [[email protected] ~]#  ipmitool -i open lan set 1 ipsrc static[[email protected] ~ ]# ipmitool -i open lan set 1 ipaddr 192.168.2.58[[email  protected] ~]# ipmitool -i open lan set 1 netmask 255.255.255.0[[ Email protected] ~]# ipmitool -i open lan set 1 defgw ipaddr  192.168.2.254#  Restart mc[[email protected] ~]# ipmitool -i open mc  reset cold#  View the Power status information for the remote host [[Email protected] ~]# ipmitool -i lan -h  192.168.2.58 -U ADMIN -P ADMIN chassis power status#  turn on or off the remote host [[ email protected] ~]#&Nbsp;ipmitool -i lan -h 192.168.2.58 -u admin -p admin chassis  power on|off
