Hi Russell,
I am not expert with the source but looking at SSHinteract.pm in the latest
snapshot it just seems to build an ssh command and the failure is due to it not
accepting a the password xCAT is trying to supply.
if ($nextline =~ /password:/i or $nextline =~ /Permission denied, please
try again/ or $nextline =~ /disconnect from/) {
die "Incorrect Password";
I know for blades you could store the management module user id and password
in more than one xCAT table:
E.g. passwd table or mpa table.
Can you check those tables ?
I wonder if you have conflicting login/password information for the management
module?
If you are using an xCAT group instead of an individual device name in those
tables check it is what you expect.
In your example it looks like the "mm" group is unique to management modules
but "bcn" would apply to management modules and blades.
xCAT will have an order of preference over which table it chooses to look up
the login credentials first.
Also worth a check to see if the Bladecenter management module event log is
telling you which user id is failing to login if it gives you a hint.
Regards,
David

Subject: Re: [xcat-user] Issues with BladeCenter H and management module
commands
Hi David,
Thanks for the reply! I did review the documentation but I guess misunderstood
it, as I thought enabling SSH in the GUI for the management module would
replace the need for the respconfig sshcfg line.
When attempting to do the 2 commands you gave me I get the following errors:
[root@xcat ~]# rspconfig bcn-sclmp01-mc1 sshcfg=enable snmpcfg=enable
bcn-sclmp01-mc1: Incorrect Password at
/opt/xcat/lib/perl/xCAT/SSHInteract.pm line 74.
[root@xcat ~]# psh -l XCAT bcn-sclmp01-mc1 info -T mm[1]
bcn-sclmp01-mc1: Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive).
It is strange that it is giving me incorrect password on the first line,
as like I mentioned before I can manually ssh into the host with the
username and password I have configured.
Any ideas on how to get the first one resolved? I feel there's a good
chance in having the rest of my issues be fixed if I can get the
rspconfig command working.
