Here is what I have done so far: logged into both qgpu0101 and qgpu0102 and ran /bin/bmcsetup. They have the correct IP. After the expect script did not work I have logged into only qgpu0101 genesis and ran: ipmitool user set password 2 <our password> it worked but I still could not login into the USERID@qgpu0101 On subsequent attempts, I can no longer change the password. When I test it: xCAT Genesis running on qgpu0101 /]# ipmitool user test 2 16 Password for user 2: <our password> Success impitool lan print 1 shows: Auth Type Enable : Callback : : User : MD5 PASSWORD : Operator : MD5 PASSWORD : *Admin : MD5* : OEM : User USERID is ADMIN so I ran: ipmitool lan set 1 auth ADMIN MD5,PASSWORD But alas I can't login to USERID@qgpu0101 still. And eventually, Admin changes back to just MD5 ?? I also changed USERID to an OPERATOR level using: ipmitool user priv 2 0x3 1
