Issuing essutils commands manually
IBM SSRs use the essutils commands manually, if they have some issues with the GUI.
Complete the following steps to use the essutils commands:
ESS 3200
1. Check the storage quickly.
/opt/ibm/ess/tools/bin/essstoragequickcheck -N localhost
2. Find missing disks.
/opt/ibm/ess/tools/bin/essfindmissingdisks -N localhost
3. Check disks.
ESSENV=INSTALL /opt/ibm/ess/tools/bin/esscheckdisks --enclosure-list all --iotest a --write-
enable --duration 5
4. Set a BMC IP address.
/bin/ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr
5. Set the BMC IP to static, and set a netmask.
/bin/ipmitool lan set 1 ipsrc static ; /bin/ipmitool lan set 1 netmask 255.255.255.0
6. Check the BMC IP information.
/bin/ipmitool lan print 1
7. Assign a management IP.
nmcli c del mgmt ; nmcli con add type ethernet con-name mgmt ifname mgmt ipv4.addr
'192.168.20.21/24' ipv4.method manual connection.autoconnect yes ; nmcli c reload ;nmcli c
up mgmt
8. Check the management IP.
/sbin/ifconfig mgmt
9. Set a VLAN tag.
/bin/ipmitool lan set 1 vlan id 101
10. Conrm the VLAN tag.
/bin/ipmitool lan print 1 | grep -i 'VLAN ID'
11. Do a ping test.
/sbin/ping -c 5 192.168.45.20
12. Run a passwordless SSH test.
/bin/ssh -o BatchMode=yes -o ConnectTimeout=5 localhost echo 'passwordless test is PASSED'
2>/dev/null || echo 'passwordless test is NOT PASSED. Please run the -Fix passwordless ssh-
menu entry and run Verify passwordless ssh is setup for this node.
13. Correct the passordless SSH.
echo 'You will need to enter the root password if asked' && /bin/ssh-copy-id -o
ConnectTimeout=5 localhost -f
14. Check the memory.
