If I remember correctly, changing the IP address does not take effect until the 
IMM/BMC is
reset, or power-cycled.

I am not sure that's the case with these nodes. I have provisioned few x3550M5s 
over few days and none of them had this issue. The issue with this node is that 
I mis-provisioned it (using wrong IP etc.) so this morning I cleared everything 
out and tried again. I see via ipmitool that set is complete, but the destiny 
of the node never changes from bmcsetup.

Is there way to force it to reprogram again?

My suspicion is that your IMM2 is set to use the dedicated IMM ethernet port,
but you intended to use the shared IMM/eth0 port instead.

This needs to be configured using the UEFI -- hit <F1> configuration, under the 
tab
where other IMM network settings are found.  If there is a way to do this using 
ipmitool,
I have not found it.

If you plug a separate cable between switch and dedicated IMM port, and the MAC
you're looking for shows up on that switch port when you ping it, you can then 
use ASU to change
IMM.SharedNicMode from Dedicated to Shared and then reboot the imm (ipmitool mc 
reset cold).
[note -- I checked this on an x3550-M4, sometimes the variables are spelled 
differently from release to release].

Remove the extra cable, and you should be back in business.

We have new x3550M5 that we just discovered. After being discovered I ran 
runcmd=bmcsetup command. I can ssh to the node and ipmitool lan print 1 tells

The IP is correct, and for set it indicates complete. However, I can not telnet 
to this IP (qhimem0004-bmc).

Here is the hosts table entry for this node:


"qhimem0004-bmc","172.29.10.14",,,"qhimem0014 node bmc interface",

Here is the /etc/hosts file entry:


172.29.10.14 
qhimem0004-bmc.quest.it.northwestern.edu<http://qhimem0004-bmc.quest.it.northwestern.edu/>
 qhimem0004-bmc

here is the nodels entry for the ipmi port:

[root@mgt log]# nodels qhimem0004 ipmi.bmcport


qhimem0004: 0

When trying to telnet to this address I get no route to host. I have logged in 
to the switch itself and see mac address of the interface show up on the port 
on the switch, but not the mac of the BMC port.



Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Damir
