[Ipmitool-devel] lanplus problem

[Rob Cakebread]

Hi,

I'm able to use ipmitool with a remote machine using the 'lan' protocol,
but 'lanplus' fails for every command. I'm trying to get SOL working, but
I'm having no luck with lanplus at all:

ipmitool -v -I lanplus -E -H 10.0.40.240 -U admin lan print

Error in open session response message : insufficient resources for session

Error: Unable to establish IPMI v2 / RMCP+ session

I can ping the remote BMC with both ipmiping and rmpcping

The machine is a Dell CS23, the BMC has IPMI v2. I'm using ipmitool v1.8.12
compiled from source.
I've tried cold resetting the BMC, but it doesn't help.

It has been my experience that some Dell BMC's require you to specify the cipher suite even though ipmitool says it defaults to cipher suite 3. Try adding -C 3 or -C 0 and see if it helps.

Thanks for that info, Dick. Unfortunately every cipher suite I try gives me
the same result.

Rob,

You can try –o intelplus
which takes some Intel BMC specifics during the RAKP handshake into account (given the fact that Intel is listed as the manufacturer of your BMC).

Good luck,
Holger

Thank you, Holger. That got me a bit further. I can now issue normal
commands remotely using 'intelplus'. The goal of this was to be able to use
'sol' but unfortunately I get this:

ipmitool -E -o intelplus -C 3 -H 10.0.40.240 -U gadmin sol activate
Error: This command is only available over the lanplus interface

Does it sound like I won't be able to use sol at all on these machines?

Thanks again,
Rob

Rob,
the –o intelplus is an additional command line option / OEM specifier. Please try it together with the other options, e.g.

ipmitool –I lanplus –U user –P password –H host –o inteloem mc info

should give you the same information as with an IPMI 1.5 connection.

ipmitool –I lan –U user –P password –H host –o inteloem mc info

If this works you have RMCP+ working and you can try to activate sol

ipmitool –I lanplus –U user –P password –H host –o inteloem sol activate


Good luck,
Holger

Thank you! That information along with getting the sol channel enabled with
the correct user finally got it working.
