Configuring IPMI

Configuring IPMI

  • From the OneFS CLI, to configure IPMI, perform the following steps:

    1. Enable IPMI and configure the IPMI IP addresses with static or DHCP allocation:

    isi ipmi settings modify --enabled=True --allocation type=[dhcp/static]

    If IPMI is configured with static IP addresses, specify the IP range:

    isi ipmi network modify --gateway=[Gateway IP] --prefixlen= --ranges=[IP Range]

    Note: Assigning a specific IP address to a certain node might not be possible because IP addresses are assigned on a first-come basis. To confirm a specific node’s IP address, run the following command: isi impi nodes list

    1. Enable the selected IPMI features:

    isi ipmi features modify Power-Control --enabled=True isi ipmi features modify SOL --enabled=True

    Note: For PowerScale nodes, SoL requires additional configuration. See IPMI SoL on PowerScale nodes, after completing all steps in this section.

    1. Confirm the enabled IPMI features:

    isi ipmi features list

    1. Configure a single IPMI username and password for all nodes. The IPMI authentication is not part of any of the other OneFS authentication providers. It is only for IPMI access. Usernames up to 16 characters are supported. Passwords must be more than 16 characters and less than 21 characters. Configure an IPMI username and password:

    isi ipmi user modify --username=[Username] --set-password

    1. Confirm a username is configured:

    isi ipmi user view
