Hi all
I'm trying to get to grips with this one, but just can't figure it
out. I recently acquired some 2nd hand Dell Poweredge 860 servers, and
noticed that they have built in remote management interfaces. So, I
have setup one, and assigned an IP address to it, but have no idea on
how to access it remotely. Google'ing for an answer didn't bring me
more than general product information about various different IPMI stuff.
So, how do I actually access these servers remotely? If possible, I'd
like todo it via another CentOS server at the DC using SSH.
do they have teh DRAC 4/p management module? if so, you configure that
(can be done from the BIOS setup, I believe) to have an IP, then you can
access them with a web browser. this is done via the seperate ethernet
port on the DRAC card. change the default DRAC password on first
access (no, I don't recall what the default is, but if you google for
site:dell.com drac-4 documentation, I'm sure you'll find it).
if its strictly IPMI, I can't help you, I've never figured out IPMI either.
