             Summary: Document workaround for IPMI protocal type for specific 
hardware on baremetal
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-4729
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-4729
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
          Components: Doc
    Affects Versions: 4.2.1
            Reporter: frank zhang
            Assignee: Jessica Tomechak
             Fix For: 4.2.1


We should mention to users that Baremetal uses ipmitool to control lifecycle of 
baremetal host. ipmitool default uses interface 'lan' to issue ipmi commands. 
Depending on your motherboard, the interface may need to be 'lanplus', in this 
case, user has to modify script

/usr/lib64/cloud/agent/scripts/util/ipmi.py

replace all lines calling ipmi tool for example:
o = ipmitool("-H", hostname, "-U", usrname, "-P", password, "chassis", "power", 
"status")

to

o = ipmitool("-H", hostname, ,"-I", "lanplus", "-U", usrname, "-P", password, 
"chassis", "power", "status")

this issue will be addressed in next release.
