How to Setup IPMI in XO
-
Hi,
Just updated to xcp-ng 8.3 and I tried searching the XO docs for IPMI but can't find anything. How do I see IPMI info from our Dell PE 640 in XO?
Thank you,
SW
-
In the host view of XO. It should appear by itself.
-
@olivierlambert I must be blind as I tried looking under the various tabs under the Host in XO but can't see it:
Thanks,
SW
-
As @olivierlambert stated if its support it will just appear...
They are working adding support for HPE and Supermicro servers. This was from Dell server.
-
@acebmxer Thanks for the screenshot! My server is a Dell R640 and I check iDRAC Settings > Connectivity to confirm IPMI is enabled:
Not sure if I need to do anything else on XO or on the Dell server?
-
@stevewest15 will need a reply from @olivierlambert or other vates member. my screenshot was from a Dell r660 but also have Dell r640 that work as well... Just double check your host is fully updated with bios / idrac firmware along with xcp-ng host and your XOA or XO-CE.
-
The first thing to do is to check if the IPMI plugin works, see https://github.com/xcp-ng/xcp-ng-xapi-plugins/?tab=readme-ov-file#ipmitool

@olivierlambert Thanks for your help! It does appear the IPMI plugin works via CLI but still doesn't show up in XO web interface:

Can you check your browser console to see if there's a issue in there?
-
@olivierlambert Thanks! Just checked browser console in Chrome and Firefox and both show the same 2 js errors:
-
That's unrelated. This might need a deeper investigation, I'm not sure to get why nothing is displayed while you have a working IPMI plugin…
-
@stevewest15 these errors are normal on XO from source, since you don't have licenses
the configuration to use for ipmi sensors depends on the bios strings .Could you post the bios string of your hosts ? Dell configuration is used if system-manufacturer' contains the string dell
-
@florent I also ran into this. It seems to be working on Dell hosts, but on my supermicro hosts I get nothing even though I do get data back from the cli plugin

curious how does this work, dont you need to put in a username and password/IP address for ipmi details. I havent looked at docs or tried this out, just wondering. I think on ESXI i had to setup the ipmi with such details before i could issue power on etc.

@marcoi said in How to Setup IPMI in XO:
curious how does this work, dont you need to put in a username and password/IP address for ipmi details. I havent looked at docs or tried this out, just wondering. I think on ESXI i had to setup the ipmi with such details before i could issue power on etc.
I am also curious, since I asume authentication would be required before you're allowed to read or write data from iDRAC, we have a read-only "statsuser" to poll from iDRAC with Observium.
But maybe there is some kind of "special" integrated pass-through authentication done since the ipmitool is being executed from the same host.

Indeed, there's no login, we just call ipmitool from the Dom0. I'm not aware of any write access from there.

@marcoi on xo side we use to show the ip of the ipmi and the sensor. We don't write anything nor use it for poweroff

Cool, thnx for the info!
