I think ipmitool ships with a script to do that - you may need to customise it slightly to work on the R320s. It might be useful to have a machine which has been setup via the BIOS tool to compare settings with (IPMI LAN and remote user settings in particular). I succeeded in enabling IPMI over LAN using ipmitool. I already did check it out but since the output of “ipmitool lan print 1” was identical between systems with and without IPMI over LAN enabled I skipped over it. Turns out the interesting setting is *not* on the output of “lan print” and I missed it. To enable/disable IPMI over LAN via standard ipmitool you just have to use “ipmitool lan set 1 access on” (or “off”). @ Srinivas: racadm didn’t do the trick - it complains about missing license. I guess the basic BMC isn’t enough. -- Luca Lesinigo LM Networks Srl _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge
