Hi,
I've had mixed success with the various IPMI tools, but the
freeipmi-tools seem to work best with an IBM x3250 M2 I've been handed
to play with. I've managed to do various things with bmc-config.
However, I'm really stuck at using the Serial-Over-Lan console.
If I do:
ipmiconsole -h <bmc-ip>
I get:
[SOL Established]
and it hangs as if waiting for me to do something.
I've read enough to know that this isn't an error. I presume it's a
connection? Every howto I've looked at says "And your console should be
connected at this point." (or words to that effect.) A couple
reference the use of agetty.
However, if I do:
agetty tty0
or
agetty tty1
The connection times out.
I don't know what to expect here because I've never used ipmi before.
What should I be doing to get access to the SOL console? Being as it's
serial I was expecting to use minicom or kermit or something like that.
Should I be setting something up before making the SOL connection? I'm
using Ubuntu 12.10.
Cheers,
Tudor.
