I thought: /etc/ttys: ttyu1 /usr/libexec/getty std.115200 vt100 on secure is for com2? I also thought: hint.uart.1.flags=0x10 Is for com2? you said: hint.uart.1.flags=0x10 Is that for for a serial only console? I read in some posts, to use: hint.uart.1.flags=0x30 for both a local console with a serial console. I could not find much documentation on the uart or sio flags. -Derek -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

IPMI SOL setup on FreeBSD 9.1 amd64 supermicro X9SCM-F/X9CL-F
I have a couple servers that are built using the supermicro X9SCM-F/X9CL-F motherboards, and I can't quite get IPMI SOL working right. These motherboards have 3 NIC's. One NIC is for a dedicated IPMI interface. I have both servers configured to use the dedicated IPMI NIC and these NIC's are plugged into a separate unmanaged switch. Both systems boards are set to redirect com1. I changed /etc/ttys to run a getty on /dev/ttyu0. I have com1 configured to 115,200 baud, 8, n, 1, no flowcontrol in the BIOS. I in have /etc/ttys: ttyu0 /usr/libexec/getty std.115200 vt100 on secure Using one server, I start an IPMI SOL session to the other server. But all I get is the IPMI SOL output, no login prompt. If I reboot the server I am SOL connected to, I do see the BIOS boot messages, and even the initial FreeBSD boot prompt. I can even make boot prompt changes from the SOL session. Once boot starts the SOL gets no more output. I looked at both servers and the one I am using to initiate the SOL has /dev/ipmi0 and ipmitool working fine. On the server I am trying to connect to has /dev/ipmi1 and ipmitool errors: Could not open device at /dev/ipmi0 or /dev/ipmi/0 or /dev/ipmidev/0: No such file or directory These are identical motherboards. I suspect that because the one system creates /dev/ipmi1 instead of /dev/ipmi0 may be why the SOL output stops right after the boot starts. If I do: ln -s /dev/ipmi1 /dev/ipmi0 ipmitool works fine, until the next reboot. How can I get the one system to make /dev/ipmi0 instead of /dev/ipmi1? In FreeBSD 9.1 do I use hint.uart instead of hint.sio in /boot/loader.conf? Any help would be appreciated. -Derek derek at computinginnovations.com -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
