how to let conserver work with BMC
Dear, all,
we had some servers did not have console hardware devices like
Avocent ACS, only with BMC.
I can use ipmitool(Dell) or SMBridge(IBM) to do console management ,
but I donot know how to integrate them into Conserver.
I didnot find a way in conserver.cf
please give me your help
the ipmitool command like:
#ipmitool -U root -I lanplus -H xx.xx.xx.xx -P "xxxxxx" sol activate
the SMBridge command like:

SMBridge>connect -ip xx.xx.xx.xx -u root -p xxxxx

SMBridge>console


thanks
jiabo

You can use something like this:

console foo {
master localhost;
type exec;
exec /path/to/ipmitool -f <password-file> -L USER -I lanplus -C 3 -H <host> -U <user> sol activate;
idletimeout 4h;
}

Hi,

There are some (old) versions of wrappers available at
http://conserver.com/contrib/ for use w/ ipmitool.

Cheers
