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
