Hi Sophia,
After looking at your original output in one of your previous email's,
it seems that IPMITOOL, once establishing an RMCP+ session successfully,
is doing the following:
- setting SOL config parameter set-in-progress to set-in-progress
- setting SOL config parameter to enable
- setting SOL config parameter set-in-progress to commit-write
- setting SOL config parameter set-in-progress to set-complete
- closing the session
This is a different procedure to the output on my system which is also
an ESB2 based board (Intel).
What version of IPMITOOL are you using, I am using 1.8.8, this looks
like it could be a previous version of code as it should rely on the
BMC's SOL settings and not have to enable them manually.
I had to set the set-in-progress SOL setting to set-complete to enable
SOL before activating it, also I set force encryption and force
authentication to disabled.
A warning: I have been working on this for a while now and although you
can start a SOL connection, when you send the first key across the
connection to the remote system a constant stream of data is sent to the
remote system which cannot be terminated (escape sequence doesn't work,
I had to open a new terminal and then deactivate the SOL session. Even
then the RMCP+ session stays open as I checked with "session info
active" command.).
I have had to use the DPCproxy application to solve SOL issues, and
unfortunately there are licensing issues with this as I'm sure you are
aware.
Other things I did were to disable the serial channel to avoid any
serial port sharing issues.
I am sure this could be fixed within the IPMITOOL code, unfortunately I
am not in a position to do so.
This is a script that I used to enable SOL on Intel S5000PAL servers:
#!/bin/bash
# Script to create an IP address for the management network
and configures SOL for 19.2k
# start IPMI service
service ipmi start
# load modules manually incase service is not installed
modprobe ipmi_msghandler
modprobe ipmi_devintf
modprobe ipmi_si
# test to see if ipmitool is installed and communicating correctly
ipmitool raw 0x06 0x01

Hi Tom, Duncan, Nilesh,
I followed your instruction to add a command "raw 06 0x4c 01 01 02
00 00
00" and had a successful return.
But I still could not activate SOL successfully, and the command
sequence
stopped at "Sending IPMI command payload".
Then I checked the detail of that part and found some strange data below
:
>> Sending IPMI command payload
>> netfn : 0x0c
>> command : 0x21
>> data : 0x0e 0x00 0x02 =====================> It may be 0x01
