Re: [Freeipmi-users] ipmi-sensors: password verification timeout

The fact IPMI 2.0 (i.e. lanplus) works but not IPMI 1.5 works is curious. Is the output from: bmc-config --checkout -vv identical on both .23 and .24? Have you tried "-D lan_2_0" with ipmi-sensors to try and force ipmi 2.0 on .24? Al On Mon, 2017-01-23 at 16:16 -0800, Yulok Lam wrote: > Hi A

Hi Albert, No, it does not. However, on a different system .23, it works. I have double check the password on both systems and they are good. See results for the .23 and .24 systems. [root@mon ~]# /usr/sbin/ipmi-sensors -h 192.168.160.24 -u X -p X -l user /usr/sbin/ipmi-sensors:

Usually this means that the password you have doesn't work. When you do: /usr/sbin/ipmi-sensors -h 192.168.160.24 -u x -p x -l user --quiet-cache --sdr-cache-recreate --interpret-oem-data --output-sensor-state --ignore-not-available-sensors On the command line, does it work? Or even s

Hi, Since you're trying to disable things like KCS, it wouldn't be done via bmc-config, since that tool is more of an average-user interfacing tool. Perhaps it'd be via the tool bmc-device, which has options for more advanced needs. May I ask what the need is to disable things like KCS? It's qui
