Just having some woes with making fence_ipmilan work with some Supermicro servers (Don't say use the supermicro IPMI Tool, we're trying to get around that.)
The problem is, using fence_ipmilan, we can initiate a boot (off then on) from the web GUI, or from the CLI via... *# cobbler system reboot --name=test123* *task started: 2015-08-05_092815_power* *task started (id=Power management (reboot), time=Wed Aug 5 09:28:15 2015)* *cobbler power configuration is:* * type : ipmilan* * address: 192.168.1.5* * user : user* * id :* *running: /usr/sbin/fence_ipmilan* *running: /usr/sbin/fence_ipmilan* *received on stdout: Powering off machine @ IPMI:**192.168.1.5**...Failed* *received on stderr:* *running: /usr/sbin/fence_ipmilan* *received on stdout: Powering off machine @ IPMI:**192.168.1.5**...Done* *received on stderr:* *cobbler power configuration is:* * type : ipmilan* * address: **192.168.1.5* * user : user* * id :* *running: /usr/sbin/fence_ipmilan* *received on stdout: Powering on machine @ IPMI:**192.168.1.5**...Failed* *received on stderr: ipmilan: Power still off* *running: /usr/sbin/fence_ipmilan* *received on stdout: Powering on machine @ IPMI:192.168.1.5...Done* *received on stderr:* **** TASK COMPLETE **** So that's great. My real question comes from the fact that I can't make cobbler set these machines to reboot via the Web GUI to Netboot/PXE. It just seems to never issue the right command via fence_ipmilan (which actually uses IPMITOOL) I can do it fine in IPMITOOL: *ipmitool -H 192.168.1.5 -U user -I lanplus -P password chassis bootdev pxeipmitool -H 192.168.1.5 -U user -I lanplus -P password chassis power reset* And the system reboots into PXE boot mode. So is there something I have to mangle in /etc/cobbler/fence_ipmilan.template? Something Else? All help is appreciated. Thanks. JLP
