For IPMI on the toolservers see Toolserver or perhaps Toolserver/Use the SP for remote control. The document you are reading covers all the other Sun hosts.
Sun's IPMI is called Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM). You can use this to power up systems and to retrieve information about the hardware, in theory. We are running version 2.0.x on some hosts and 3.0.x on others.
Our Sun servers are currently either in the esams location or in pmtpa. In order to access the IPMI interface on these hosts you choose one of the two methods according to the location:
Hosts in pmtpa (includes ms1 through ms5)
- Be on a host in pmtpa
- ssh -l root xxx.mgmt.pmtpa.wmnet
- password is the same as the one used for access to the drac interface
Hosts in esams (ms6)
- Be on a host in esams
- ssh -l root xxx.ipmi.esams.wikimedia.org
- password is the same as the one used for access to the drac interface
This will drop you at the -> prompt.
Basic commands:
- exit -- leave the command line interface and exit the session
- show /SP -- show information available from the serial port
- ...
See also the Platform-specific documentation describing each of the various Sun hardware models and how LOM behaves on them.
For more information, see the ILOM 2.0 User guide or Sun Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) 3.0 Documentation.
