Error loading interface lanplus
Any clue what this might be? How can I get the lanplus interface
loaded?
sounds like your version of ipmitool is compiled without lanplus
(or misconfigured in some way)
Is this a driver issue or does this mean that my BMC does not
have a lanplus interface at all.
there's no driver here: ipmitool is a user-level network client
that sends packets to the bmc. if the bmc isn't running a protocol
like lanplus, ipmitool will just fail to connect (timeout):
[h...@req773 ~]$ ipmitool -U admin -P whatever -I lan -H cp-req1 chassis status
Get Session Challenge command failed
Error: Unable to establish LAN session
ipmi_lan_send_cmd failed to open intf
Error sending Chassis Status command
The LAN interface does work file but apparantly "sol activate" needs lanplus.
ipmitool -H 10.0.0.26 -I lan -U root sol activate
Error: This command is only available over the lanplus interface
IMO, they misuse the term 'interface' there - they mean protocol.
