the bmcsetup contains:
 ipmitool -d $idev user enable $USERSLOT

The one user xCAT is supposed to be using should already be having that
done.  USERSLOT:
f [ ! -z "$LOCKEDUSERS" ]; then
    USERSLOT=`ipmitool -d $idev user list $LANCHAN |grep -v ^ID|awk '{print
$1 " " $2}'|grep " $BMCUS"|awk '{print $1}'`
    if [ -z "$USERSLOT" ]; then
        USERSLOT=4
    fi
else
    USERSLOT=2
fi

It looks at the user list, sees if the requested user is one of the first
4, if it is, it uses that.  If it isn't, it takes over slot 4.
There were some IPMI implementations that mandated we use slot 2.  If
supermicro has another limitation, we can probably adapt bmcsetup easily
enough.

Subject:        [xcat-user] bmcsetup and Supermicro X9DRT



Hi all,

We have a Supermicro X9DRT-based node that we are attempting to use
bmcsetup on. We are running into an issue where bmcsetup on this
Supermicro seems to be adding users with a default to "disabled" state.
I have to specifically run "ipmitool user enable <id>" on the node to
enable the user.

Other nodes we run bmcsetup on, such as Dell's, this is not the case and
the user is added and enabled by default.

Would it be possible to perhaps change the bmcsetup code to purposefully
enable the user after it has been added? Would this be the right path to
take for this?


Thanks for your input!
