Hello Andy,
Thank you very much for your reply. Indeed i had great succes with
ipmiutil on Dell PE-1850, 1950, SC1425, However PE-1750 is a bit
strange. It appears it does not have a LAN channel. By checking
dmidecode, i find this:
IPMI Device Information
Interface Type: BT (Block Transfer)
Specification Version: 1.0
I2C Slave Address: 0x10
NV Storage Device: Not Present
Base Address: 0x00000000000000E4 (I/O)
Register Spacing: Successive Byte Boundaries
Interrupt Polarity: Active High
Interrupt Trigger Mode: Edge
Interrupt Number: a
By issuing ipmiutil lan i get this output:
ipmiutil ver 2.69
ilan ver 2.69
-- BMC version 1.80, IPMI version 1.0
This IPMI v1.0 system does not support PEF records.
This system does not support IPMI LAN channels.
Could it be that PE-1750 does not have a LAN channel? I find it very odd.
Regards,
Radu
