About this guide

This guide provides information for using the Dell EMC baseboard management controller (BMC).

CAUTION: To avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, wear grounding wrist straps when handling this equipment.

NOTE: Only trained and qualified personnel can install this equipment. Read this guide before you install and power on this equipment. This equipment contains two power cables. Disconnect both power cables before servicing.

NOTE: This equipment contains optical transceivers, which comply with the limits of Class 1 laser radiation.

Figure 1. Class 1 laser product tag

NOTE: When no cable is connected, visible and invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the aperture of the optical transceiver ports. Avoid exposure to laser radiation. Do not stare into open apertures.

Language

NOTE: This guide may contain language that is not consistent with the current guidelines. Dell EMC plans to update the guide over subsequent releases to revise the language accordingly.

Hardware and software support

For the most current BMC update information, see the S5200-ON Series Release Notes.

For more information about the intelligent platform management interface (IPMI), see the IPMI resources that is hosted by Intel at https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/servers/ipmi/ipmi-technical-resources.html.

NOTE: The BMC out-of-band (OOB) network or LAN is not enabled for Trade Agreement Act-qualified (TAA) switches. The BMC OOB is enabled for non-TAA-qualified switches.

Required drivers

In Linux, the baseboard management controller (BMC) uses the ipmitool open-source tool during testing. To configure or get data from the BMC, ipmitool sends ipmi commands to the BMC. You must have the IPMI driver installed to use ipmitool.

To access ipmitools, go to https://sourceforge.net, search for ipmitools, then select the See Project button.

NOTE: Although there are newer versions available, the ipmitool and driver versions used during testing the BMC are:

Linux version: 4.9.30

ipmitool version: 1.8.18

ipmi driver that the ipmitool uses is built with kernel 4.9.30.

BMC access

Access BMC through the network interface from a remote machine. Use ipmitool for host and remote access.

LAN interface—ipmitool is the standard tool to access BMC over the network. A dummy static IP address is preprogrammed in the BMC. You can change this dummy static IP address of the network interface using ipmitool from the microprocessor console:

# ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr <x.x.x.x>

6 Hardware and software support

Configuration methods

The diagnostic operating software (DIAG OS) running on the local processor has ipmitool installed by default. You can use the ipmitool both at the switch and remotely.

Accessing BMC from the host does not require user name or password. The general syntax for using ipmitool is:

NOTE: -I and -H are optional.

ipmitool [-c|-h|-v|-V] -I lanplus -H <hostname> [-p <port>]

[-U <username>] [-L <privlvl>]

[-a|-E|-P|-f <password>] [-o <oemtype>]

[-O <sel oem>]

[-C <ciphersuite>] [-Y|[-K|-k <kg_key>] [-y <hex_kg_key>] [-e <esc_char>]

[-N <sec>] [-R <count>] < command>

For example, to list sensors from the host use the following command from the host:

root@dellemc-diag-os:~# ipmitool sensor

8 Configuration methods

To access BMC over a LAN, use the following ipmitool command:

ipmitool [-c|-h|-v|-V] -I lanplus -H <hostname> [-p <port>]

[-U <username>] [-L <privlvl>]

[-a|-E|-P|-f <password>] [-o <oemtype>]

[-O <sel oem>]

[-C <ciphersuite>] [-Y|[-K|- <kg_key>] [-y <hex_kg_key>] [-e <esc_char>]

[-N <sec>] [-R <count>] <command>

If needed, you can download ipmitool from the htps://sourceforge.net/ projects/ipmitool website. The commands to install ipmitool on Ubuntu or Fedora versions are as follows:

1.Install ipmitool on Ubuntu versions.

#apt-get install ipmitool

2.Install ipmitool on Fedora versions.

#yum install ipmitool

Run standard IPMI commands from ipmitool. For the command format, see Intelligent Platform Management Interface Specification Second Generation v2.0.pdf. For more documentation, see https://linux.die.net/man/1/ipmitool.

NOTE: Throughout this user guide, Intelligent Platform Management Interface Specification Second Generation v2.0.pdf is known as IPMI Specification v2.0. For more information about IPMI, see the IPMI resources that is hosted by Intel at https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/servers/ipmi/ipmi-technical-resources.html.

For network settings, see the IPMI Specification v2.0 chapter 23.1 Set LAN Configuration Parameters Command and Table 23-4 LAN Configuration Parameters.

In addition to setting IP addresses, use ipmitool to set the network mask, MAC address, default gateway IP and MAC addresses, and so forth.

ipmitool commands:

root@dellemc-diag-os:~# ipmitool lan set 1

usage: lan set <channel> <command> <parameter>

NOTE: Dell Technologies recommends setting LAN parameters from the host microprocessor. You can run all other ipmitool options from a remote machine after the BMC has the correct IP address and LAN settings. When running ipmitool from a remote machine, the command prefix is ipmitool -H <ip address of BMC> -I lanplus -U <user_name> -P <password> …">.

The <channel> number is the LAN channel, which is 1 in this BMC implementation.

Dell Technologies recommends using the LAN settings command from a system-side machine rather than from a remote machine. To set a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) IP address, use the following command:

# ipmitool lan set 1 ipsrc dhcp

To set a static IP address:

#ipmitool lan set 1 ipsrc static

#ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr <x.x.x.x>

You can also add the BMC IP address from the BIOS. For more information, see the BIOS manual at www.dell.com/support.

DNS configuration

Use these commands to set and get domain name server (DNS)-related settings, for example hostname, domain setting, and DNS server settings. BMC supports only three DNS server IP addresses. These IP addresses can be either IPv4 or IPv6.

To set DNS configuration details, use the DNS configuration command. The DNS configuration is buffered and applies only after you set a DNS Restart—parameter #7.

Date and time

BIOS sets the date and time during boot up. Use the iseltime tool that is part of the ipmiutil package. Use the ipmiutil command only on the local processor. For more information about the ipmiutil command, see ipmiutil package.

Install the ipmiutil package and use the iseltime command.

10 Configuration methods

To override the date and time that is used in the system event log (SEL) log, use the following command:

root@dellemc-diag-os:~# ipmitool sel time get

08/01/2018 15:10:46

root@dellemc-diag-os:~# ipmitool sel time set usage: sel time set "mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss" root@dellemc-diag-os:~#

For ipmiutil/iseltime, download and install the binaries and documentation from https://ipmiutil.sourceforge.net. Also, various Linux distributions have binary packages prebuilt and available for download.

SNMP and email alerts

Event filters

To set the platform event filters, use the raw command format. To configure an entry in the filter table:

root@dellemc-diag-os:~# ipmitool raw 0x04 0x12 0x6 0x2 0xc0 0x1 0x2 0x2 0xff 0xff 0xff 0xff 0xff 0x01 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0

Byte 3 (0x60)

– event filter table cmd

Byte 4(0x2)

filter

Byte 5(0xc0) –

filter config(enable)

Byte 6(0x1)

Byte 7(0x2)

Byte 8(0x2)

Byte 9(0xff) –

Byte 10 (0xff)

– channel number(any)

Byte 11(0xff)

Byte 12(0x01)

The entry 2 is changed after the command, as shown:

root@dellemc-diag-os:~# root@dellemc-diag-os:~# ipmitool pef filter list

Alert policies and destinations

For more information, see the IPMI Specification v2.0 chapter 17.11 Alert Policy Table and chapter 30.3 Set PEF Configuration Parameters Command (parameter 9).

LAN destinations

BMC supports SNMP alert destinations. These are SNMP traps. When you set a LAN destination for alerts, the BMC sends an SNMP trap to the set a destination whenever BMC detects alert conditions. You can setup the SNMP management application on the destination to receive these SNMP traps; however, setting up the SNMP management station is beyond the scope of this document.

To view alert destinations, use the ipmitool lan alert print command.

You can configure up to 15 destinations. To configure destination 1 to send an alert to a machine with IP address 10.11.227.180:

root@dellemc-diag-os:~# ipmitool lan alert set 1 1 ipaddr 10.11.227.105

Setting LAN Alert 1 IP Address to 10.11.227.105
