I have a Dell DELL PowerEdge R210 server on hand, and I have nothing to do. I studied its remote boot and shutdown.

Dell servers are equipped with BMC by default. The network port used for management and the operating system share the same network port (note that it must be the first network port, that is, the one marked 1 on the server), as long as the IP address set in BMC is different from the IP of the operating system. The setup of BMC is simple, follow these steps:

1. Press the Ctrl+E key to enter the setting screen when you see the Press for BMC Setup prompt when the server starts, move the blue light bar to the IPMI OverLAN option, click the space bar, and a! warning appears! No matter how to hit enter and skip it, then the off on the right will become on.

2. Move the light bar to the LAN Parameters option, click enter to enter the ip setting state, use the keyboard arrow keys and left and right keys to control, and set the relevant ip subnet and gateway three important options, where Ethernet IP Address is the ip address of the server, Subnet Mask is the subnet mask, and Default Gateway is the gateway. Press the ESC key to exit to the general menu after setting.

3. Move the light bar to the LAN UserConfiguration option and hit enter to enter the user setting state. Move the light bar to the ENTER PASSWORD, enter the password, it is best not to have punctuation marks, preferably all lowercase letters, enter the password after hitting the enter will automatically jump to the confirm password, re-enter the password can be, after typing, hit enter to return to the main menu.

4, confirm that there is no problem, press the ESC key, come out a small dialog box, select the Save Changes and Exit option to save and exit, at this time the machine starts to boot the system to set IPMI Over LAN to On, set the IP address in IPMI LAN Channel, pay attention to a small detail, if you enter a wrong number or do not want a number of IP address, you can enter it after using the Backup key to complete the configuration and save the settings.

In fact, the client does not have any settings, as long as it can ping the IP address configured by the server BMC, and it does not need to be in the same network segment.

Next, find the client. In the random CD of DELL, find the file\ SYSMGMT\ ManagementStation\ windows\ ManagementStation\ BMC.cab, and extract all the files inside. We only need the three files inside:

Ipmitool.exe

Cygcrypto-0.9.8.dll

Cygwin1.dll

The extracted files do not have an extension and need to be manually changed to these file names. Attachments are available for download later in this article.

Here are some practical commands for ipmitool, assuming that the IP address set in the server BMC is 192.168.188.167, the user is root, and the password is password

View the power status:

Ipmitool-I lan-U root-P password-H192.168.188.167 power status

Power on:

Ipmitool-I lan-U root-P password-H192.168.188.167 power on

Power off:

Ipmitool-I lan-U root-P password-H192.168.188.167 power off

For specific command parameters, you can refer to this article.
