[PLUGIN] IPMI for 6.11+


Recommended Posts

@SimonF, thank you for the plugin and for the support.

 

Is the Supermicro X13SAE-F supported?

Asking because in the Json area of the Settings Editor it says something about this:

 

{
    "ASRockRack": {
        "raw": "00 3a 01",
        "auto": "00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00",
        "full": "64 64 64 64 64 64 64 64",
        "fans": {
            "CPU1_FAN1": "01",
            "CPU2_FAN1": "01",
            "REAR_FAN1": "01",
            "NOT_AVAILABLE": "01",
            "FRNT_FAN1": "01",
            "FRNT_FAN2": "01",
            "FRNT_FAN3": "01",
            "FRNT_FAN4": "11"
        }
    }
}
            

 

Also, anyone else here has a X13SAE-F, please?

The json is only used for ASRock servers and was added so Asrock users could edit from the GUI.

 

Fan control should work, I only have X9 and X10 SMs. but have you tried to enable Fan control should show Model details at top of screen.

Hi, I just installed this on my Dell R730XD.  I cannot seem to get it to connect.  I get connection unsuccessful using the IP address, userid and password for IPMI.

 

I am able to run ipmitools from windows using these credentials - can connect, change fan speeds, etc.

 

I tried the /usr/sbin/ipmi-sensors --output-sensor-thresholds --comma-separated-output --output-sensor-state --no-header-output --interpret-oem-data --always-prefix -h "192.168.2.225" -u “root” -p “MYPASSWORD” command and this times out.

 

I have enable IPMI over lan set in iDrac - but windows ipmitools would fail without this.

 

I am sure I am missing something?  Thanks.

Read people read, i just explained this up a bit, this is a local connection NOT lan! 
 

You do not need to use ip, your local on the device, ip control is for a remote machine. You need to modprobe ipmi-si ipmi-devintf

Hello. Is there a way to reset my IPMI logins using this?

Thank you for your time.

No, this is primarily a tool to control fan speed via IPMI.  It does install some ipmi functions onto the path, but you could do the same thing with nerdtools.

Thanks for your help.  I don't understand what that means.  I looked up modprobe and I am not making the connection.

 

I could take a few months or years to get to your level, or perhaps you can help me out and give me some pointers on what to put in the fields below.  I am sure there are others that would benefit from this.  Thanks again.

You need to run this on a command line.

 

To make it run each reboot, edit /boot/config/go and add the same line.

 

Then set network connect to no.

Did you have a temp sensor set as auto will just use motherboard auto mode.

I have the same problem with a Supermicro X10SLM. 

After activating Fan Control, the fans spin up to max (1700 RPM) and stay there

FAN2: Chassis Fans

FANA: CPU

This is the log output:

Should it output a temperature polling success line after 1 minute?

FAN3 is in red at 0 rpm, did you disconnect that fan? If a fan goes below the minimum threshold all others go to max speed.

Thank you for the fast reply. I connected the fan:

Unfortunately this did not change anything.

Even when I change the fan-Speed maximum to 50%, there is no change in RPM: Always Full throttle

Your cpu fan should be controlled by bios! The other 2 should be set to hdd

Thanks for trying to help. I did that, but it did not change anything. I even disconnected the fans briefly. Now one is even running at RPM:

May take upto 3 mins to stabilise if using HDD temp.

I changed my settings to match yours and the log output looks goot, but the fans dont react. Do I have to set a special Fan Mode in the IPMI web UI?

Not sure if it does not like fan 4 is not installed.

Im pretty sure all, but i can not test. Maybe just have a button to load/unload

Looks like my 420 loads by default.
