SuperMicro sc847 chassis, 7 fans, all at 2900 RPM!

Well, yes, I will not change the firmware for ipmi, as you say BMS/IPMI are different parts.

I will probably take the fan chassis and run a wire to another fan port, and control them that way.

But I still do want to see the IPMI work and allow remote access, its blinking and took an IP, as said before, I think 100 mb or even 10mb might be needed to talk to it.
I will let it auto negotiate with my laptop. Needed the weekend to try all this

Thanks

OK, made progress. It was a typo.

I can now ping and get to the IPMI in my server

Bad news is the username/password is not ADMIN/ADMIN or admin/admin

So, I will need to get in. Tried from my windows box with IPMITool to reset password, but it looks like I need to make a bootable usb dos stick and go that way

Or....

Is there a IPMITool built for FreeBSD somewhere?

FreeNAS ships with ipmitool installed.

 

[philhu]

yep, just saw that, password all set

Is there a way to run the IPMItool on the freeNAS box, or just set password, and use IPMI webGUI to see temps? I can use it on my Linux box by usinf addr/user/pass on the command line.

Now, I can use my linux box to read and set fans.......It is reading 2670 RPM all connected to fan #7 (cpu1 fan). So it is 8 fans at 2670


LOUD

Try using Supermicro's IPMIView tool to see what you can do with the target now.
