Using IPMI over ILO2

romain0412 — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 07:12:45 GMT

Hi,

I have to monitor some HP Poliant DL380 G6. I've used IPMI protocole on other server (other brand). I wan to use IPMI on ILO2 but I don't find this on the interface.

I've read on an other thread that HP use an another tool, SMASH? I don't know it and don't find how to user it.

IPMI support was added in the new iLO2 v2.00 that was just released last week.

iLO2 v2.00 Enhancements/New Features

- New HP Intelligent Power Distribution Unit
- Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) for imported certificates
- A Recovery Payload that will help users recover iLO 2 from a failed firmware upgrade via FTP. Additional details can be found - in the new User Guide which can be found at http://www.hp.com/go/ilo
- "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

Great :-D.

Thanks for your great help.
