Al,
I'm sorry I should have tagged that first case of using ipmipower as an
error. Once I added -D LAN_2_0 things worked great. I think I also
figured out the freeipmi.conf parameter (driver-type LAN_2_0) to change to
make it work by default and still talk to lo100 and iLO devices without any
issue at first glance
Things are running fine now. I will continue to do some more testing
tomorrow with SOL, sensor gatherings. In addition I will try and report
back on conman/powerman using their ipmi drivers work against the iLO server
as well.
Finally I will try and take a look at some tests specified here:
http://www.gnu.org/software/freeipmi/freeipmi-testing.txt
and report back.

Hi Chris,
For freeipmi (ipmipower) I found the following combination worked:
---
# ipmipower -h cut0iogw1-ilo -s
cut0iogw1-ilo: authentication type unavailable for attempted privilege
level
This isn't good. It suggests that the HP firmware might be returning
bad/poor information in the Get Authentication Capabilities phase of
IPMI. Does ipmipower work if you also specify the authcap workaround?
(-W authcap).
If it does work, then there is a bug. Perhaps you can send me a --debug
output and we can take a look to figure out what the bug is.

Hello,
With the recent update of the 2.00 iLO2 firmware, we can now support:
- IPMI over LAN functionality. The IPMI 2.0 RMCP+ (or Linux ipmitool
lanplus) protocol is supported with this release.
- IPMI Serial Over LAN (SOL)
- Data Center Manageability Interface (DCMI) v1.0 specification
- Enhanced the in band Intelligent Platform Management Interface
(IPMI)
to comply with the IPMI specification version 2.0
I've been able to use ipmitool to test this successfully (power, SOL and
sensor gathering). Here's what I do with ipmitool:
---
# rpm -q ipmitool
ipmitool-1.8.11-1
# ipmitool -I lanplus -H cut0iogw1-ilo -U USER -P PASS power status
Chassis Power is off
# ipmitool -I lanplus -H cut0iogw1-ilo -U USER -P PASS power on
Chassis Power Control: Up/On
# ipmitool -I lanplus -H cut0iogw1-ilo -U USER -P PASS power status
Chassis Power is on

For freeipmi (ipmipower) I found the following combination worked:
---
# ipmipower -h cut0iogw1-ilo -s
cut0iogw1-ilo: authentication type unavailable for attempted privilege
level
# ipmipower -h cut0iogw1-ilo -D LAN_2_0 -s
cut0iogw1-ilo: on
# ipmipower -h cut0iogw1-ilo -D LAN_2_0 -f
cut0iogw1-ilo: ok
# ipmipower -h cut0iogw1-ilo -D LAN_2_0 -s
cut0iogw1-ilo: off
# ipmipower -h cut0iogw1-ilo -D LAN_2_0 -n
cut0iogw1-ilo: ok
# ipmipower -h cut0iogw1-ilo -D LAN_2_0 -s
cut0iogw1-ilo: on
---
I set the following in /etc/freeipmi.conf:
---
driver-type LAN_2_0
---
and it seems to work ok for the lo100 and ilo2 servers just fine.
---
# ipmipower -h cut0iogw1-ilo -s
cut0iogw1-ilo: on
# ipmipower -h cut0admin1-lo -s
cut0admin1-lo: on
---
I figure there may be other functional tests for ipmi compliance I can
run
now that the initial flags have been worked around for freeipmi's
ipmipower
command. Then I figure on changing powerman/conman to use ipmi drivers
for
ilo devices and see how that works.
Thanks,
