Fixing console redirection
When you boot up each 3200 canister for code 20 checkout, you might see the BMC login prompt vs the
O/S login prompt. If this is the case you must x redirection.
1. Login to the BMC by using the following credentials:
User ID: sysadmin
Password: <{Enclosure serial number}A>
Note: Change A with B for right canister.
2. Once logged in, run the following command and then press the Enter key.
ipmitool -I lanplus -H 127.0.0.1 -U admin -P admin raw 0x3c 0xcc 0x0
You must be greeted with the O/S login prompt. If not, you might need to power cycle the canister.
Deleting characters in essutils
When you modify characters (for example, deleting IP addresses) in essutils, you might nd it is not
working. One way to delete characters is with Ctrl + H. We designed the ability for backspace key to be
used normally, but if that fails to use Ctrl + H you can also modify the terminal settings to interpret the
backspace/delete key properly.
When you edit commands in essutils (for example: when you change the IP address with 'c' and save with
Ctrl+G) it is possible to make a mistake that you feel cannot be corrected.
Remember: Any options changed are not permanent. Simply exit essutils completely and re-start. This
will reset all options back to defaults.
IP address setting issues
When you try to set an IP address on an ESS 5000 node or a p9 protocol node by using the ESS 5000
panel, a network issue occurs in nmcli.
When you use the essutils tool to set an IP address for a p9 protocol or ESS 5000 data server node, it tries
to modify the mgmt device instead of the enP1p8s0f0 device. This modication creates a network issue
because the mgmt device exists only for p9 EMS. You can check whether an IP address is set for a correct
device by issuing the following command:
# nmcli c
A sample output is as follows:
