IPMI

Revision as of 17:30, 25 September 2006

Kyle,

It is the AOC-IPMI20 controller. You should have an automatic update option with your IPMI cd that flashes the appropriate firmware, is this not the case?

It may be simpler to download the newest IPMI .iso from supermicro. This will also ensure we have the newest firmware package available:

ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/CDR_Images/CDR-0010_2.03_IPMI_Server_Managment.iso

Before updating you will want to locate the MAC address of your first network interface (either in linux with ifconfig or on a small white sticker inside of the system physically located near the network controllers in the rear of the chassis).

After updating to the newest firmware, run ipnmac.exe (it may be buried a few directories down). Enter the desired IP address when prompted (must be different than your OS-level address) and then the MAC address from your first network interface.

After that, shut down the system, disconnect from power completely for 10 seconds, then power back up. You should be ready to go at that point.
