Setting ILO IPs on 128 servers
Hi,
installing a new cluster, 128 nodes xl225n with apollo 2000 chassis. I have to assign 128 nodes ILO static IPs in a timely manner. What are my options? I use to work a lot with D..l servers and there is a iDRAC direct usb port in the back. I did configure 100 IP addresses with one hour in the past.
Seems like xl225n has no such option.
Thanks!

Re: Query: Setting ILO IPs on 128 servers
I could add that I have access to APM and Oneview. CAn the IPv4 ILO setup be done from APM? or from Oneview?
I don't wanna setup 128 ILO IP one by one, will take forever!!
Thanks for your answer

Re: Query: Setting ILO IPs on 128 servers
If you can install and configure the ipmi RPM, you can do it via OS.
[root@DB2 LOG]# ipmitool lan set 2 ipsrc static
[root@DB2 LOG]# ipmitool lan set 2 ipaddr 192.168.0.135
[root@DB2 LOG]# ipmitool lan set 2 netmask 255.255.255.0
[root@DB2 LOG]# ipmitool lan print

[root@DB2 LOG]# rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/bin/ipmitool
OpenIPMI-tools-1.4.14-1.4E.25
If you have ssh or rsh access to the 128 servers, you can automatically do everything you need..
"Pseudo code" ...
IP_SUBNET = 192.168.0
for host in 1 to 128
do
"install IPMI"
"configure IPMI"
ipmitool lan set 2 ipsrc static
ipmitool lan set 2 ipaddr $IP_SUBNET.$host
ipmitool lan set 2 netmask 255.255.255.0
done
