Hi everyone, Thanks for all the responses (there were quite a few!). I have tried ipmitool, ipmi-oem, and even an older version (c. 2009) of ipmi-util, but it looks like none of them work using any of the suggestions people have made (it would have been super amazing if 'mac list' did, because that would solve my problem right there).
I suspect the issue I'm running into is probably version/compatibility on the hardware side, as opposed to the software side. Is there any kind of compatibility matrix available online? Some of the machines I'm working with are a bit on the older side (e.g., C2100) ... maybe there's a firmware update I missed or something? thanks, Klaus On Wed, Jan 4, 2017 at 10:17 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > > > *Dell - Internal Use - Confidential * > > Hi , > > > > for 13G, > > open source ipmitool has to update with latest(1.8.15) in order to work > > or > > dell-ipmitool(OM840DVD) works for delloem mac > > > > Br, > > MSR > > > > > > > > *From:* Murali, Mohan G > *Sent:* Thursday, January 5, 2017 9:04 AM > *To:* Mareedu, Srinivasa <[email protected]>; K2, Narendra > <[email protected]> > *Subject:* RE: [Linux-PowerEdge] Query system MAC addresses via IPMI? > > > > *Dell - Internal Use - Confidential * > > If there is a way from IPMI tool to get MAC address, please see if you > can respond over Linux PowerEdge mailing list.
