Alex, Cool, thanks. FWIW, here's what an M610 blade shows: # ipmitool sdr elist mcloc iDRAC | 00h | ok | 7.1 | Dynamic MC @ 20h And a PE1850 # ipmitool sdr elist mcloc DRAC4 | 00h | ok | 11.5 | Dynamic MC @ 26h BMC | 00h | ok | 7.1 | Dynamic MC @ 20h Primary BP | 00h | ok | 26.2 | Dynamic MC @ C0h As you say, this seems to only be representative of an interface address for that system, not the existence of the card. I'm guessing there must be some IPMI call that can be issued to those addresses to detect presence, but... (i'm afraid to start pushing random events there and don't have time to read the IPMI docs) however, at least for a DRAC5... System *with* a DRAC5 installed # ipmitool sdr elist | grep -i drac DRAC5 Conn 2 Cbl | 59h | ok | 7.1 | Connected (this command takes *minutes* to complete, but can be shortened by # ipmitool sdr entity 7.1 | grep -i drac DRAC5 Conn 2 Cbl | 59h | ok | 7.1 | Connected ) System w/o DRAC5 installed, note the 'ns' (no sense) state: # ipmitool sdr elist | grep -i drac DRAC5 Conn 2 Cbl | 59h | ns | 7.1 | Disabled This entity may be an indicator of Console Serial redirection from the name, so i'm not sure if it still indicates the existence of the card. Unfortunately, on my M610, nothing matches the 'drac' string nor on my PE1850. For Brandon Ooi, # lshw | egrep -i '(drac|remote|access|mc)' # While 'lshw' is useful, it also doesn't answer this question :-( --stephen -- Stephen Dowdy - Systems Administrator - NCAR/RAL 303.497.2869 - [email protected] - http://www.ral.ucar.edu/~sdowdy/ _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
