Webhostpython offers dedicated servers with full IPMI access if requested. If you still don’t have access, try a cold restart and then a test: You have now set it to the dedicated IPMI port of your motherboard and should regain access to your IPMI. These issues will not usually occur on the X9/X10 but if it does then you need to run this: If you see you’re on the failover or on the shared port, you can set it to the dedicated IPMI port:
This will let you know what you’re currently set on: This is because it tries to default to the wrong port. The login page will show up for you but you can’t proceed. Tip: If you’re using an older Supermicro motherboard such as the X8, it’s auto detection can cause issues where IPMI stops responding. As soon as you setup your IPMI on a Supermicro system, remember to change the default password right away. It’s important to know this! Supermicro has a default password of ADMIN. Ipmitool lan set 1 access on (And now, it’s showtime!) Ipmitool lan set 1 auth ADMIN MD5 (Get it ready for ADMIN access) “””Enabling BMC-generated ARP responses””” Ipmitool lan set 1 arp respond on (Get this thing ready for action) Ipmitool lan set 1 defgw ipaddr 192.168.1.1 (This is your gateway. Ipmitool lan set 1 netmask 255.255.255.0 (Use this for a /24, change accordingly) Ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr 192.168.1.5 ( Replace this with your actual IP) Ipmitool lan set 1 ipsrc static (This sets things to static which is needed 99% of the time) Those modprobe settings are needed as well since by default they’re not set. You have now installed IPMItool on your server. First, we want to install IPMItool on the server.Or simply because you do not want to take the machine down while configuring IPMI access and accessing those tools. However, there are times that you need to setup IPMI via command line interface since access to a BIOS in not an option. Setting up IPMI via your BIOS is a very simple thing to do.
