Apple has released. Whats New in this Version - This update includes changes to the Lights-Out Management environment of the Intel-based Xserve. It addresses the intermittent issue that causes the LOM port to be unresponsive. This update is strongly recommended for all Intel-based Xserve systems. The Xserve Lights-Out Management Firmware Update 1.1 application has been installed into the /Applications/Server folder of the selected volume.
You must then run the firmware update application to perform the update to the Xserve. You may run the update as an application in the Finder of the target Xserve or remotely from the command line. More information can be found on.
. Apple’s XServe comes with a Lights Out Management (LOM) capability.
For anyone dealing with co-located servers or clusters, this is an essential feature. Remote monitoring, power, and so on are lifesavers when something goes wrong. Apple provides a GUI for setting up the IP address and authentication information on the LOM. The problem, for me, with using a GUI for something like this is that it’s nearly impossible to script and automate. When I’m setting up a cluster of even a dozen nodes, going through a remote desktop to a GUI becomes intolerable in a hurry. The command line tool for changing settings on the LOM is a standard one called ‘ipmitool’.
Xserve LOM Firmware Update. This update includes changes to the Lights-Out Management environment of the Xserve (Early 2008). It addresses issues that. The Lights-Out Management processor in the Xserve will automatically restart and should begin to run the new firmware without any interruption to Mac OS X Server running on the host.
While the internal documentation is good, the usage can be a little obscure. Here, therefore, are the commands that I use to set up and enable channel 1 (ethernet port 1, or eth0): I feel compelled to note that you will need to use different IP addresses for the various hosts you’re setting up. Also, you.really. don’t want to set the LOM Ip address to conflict with the IP address of the operating system. Really, you’re setting up a small, separate, out of band machine to manage the big expensive server.

Think of it as a different machine, and you’ll be all set. For most of the clusters I build, I address the compute nodes as 192.168.2.1 = node001, and so on. For clusters of less than 100 nodes, I set the LOM address to the node address plus 100. Thus, these settings would be appropriate for node015. Ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr 192.168.2.115 ipmitool lan set 1 netmask 255.255.255.0 ipmitool lan set 1 defgw ipaddr 192.168.2.254 ipmitool lan set 1 access on ipmitool lan set 1 arp respond on At this point, the IP address of the LOM ought to respond to pings. All that’s left is to set up and enable a user account.

Note that we’re now talking about user number two, rather than port number 1: ipmitool user set name 2 admin ipmitool user set password 2. You get to type the password twice. ipmitool user enable 2 FInally, I associate user number 2 with port number 1: ipmitool user priv 2 4 1 I have yet to find a way around typing all those IP addresses into the Server Monitor tool.
