Al,
There is no username option in ipmipower 0.1.2:
address@hidden bin]# ./ipmipower --help
Usage: ipmipower [OPTION...] [FILE...]
power ON or OFF a remote IPMI compliant machine.
-f, --off Power OFF the remote IPMI box
-h, --hostname=IPMI host Hostname of remote IPMI box
-n, --on Power ON the remote IPMI box
-p, --password=Password Password for remote IPMI box
-v, --verbose Print verbose information
-?, --help Give this help list
--usage Give a short usage message
-V, --version Print program version
With ipmipower 0.1.3, if I write the following to the BMC via
bmc-config --commit:
...
Section User3
Username Administrator
Password asdf
...
Commit Section <User2> Key <Username> Value <Operator> FAILED
Commit Section <User3> Key <Username> Value <Administrator> FAILED
Commit Section <User4> Key <Username> Value <Callback> FAILED
...
The subsequent 'ipmipower -o' reveals that the password wasn't set:
...
ection User3
Username Administrator
Password
...
So, apparently I can't set a password. Using the '-u Administrator'
option and no -p option with 'ipmipower -s' results in the same error
condition... it times out.
Maybe I just got a flakey Tyan IPMI board?
