Configure the Software After Installation

  1. Run the appropriate commands for the features that you want to configure.
    • On Oracle VM, the ipmi service must be started manually with the following command:

      # /sbin/service hmp-ipmi start

    • If oracle-hmp-hwmgmt is installed, enable and start the Hardware Management Agent with the following commands:

      # /sbin/chkconfig hwmgmtd on

      # /sbin/service hwmgmtd start

    • If oracle-hmp-snmp is installed, enable and start the SNMP daemon with the following commands:

      1. To enable the SNMP daemon, run the following command:

        # /sbin/chkconfig snmpd on

      2. To determine whether or not the daemon is running, run the following command:

        # /sbin/service snmpd status

        • If snmpd is running, type the following command to restart it:

          # /sbin/service snmpd restart

        • If snmpd is not running, type the following command to start it:

          # /sbin/service snmpd start

    • If oracle-hmp-tools is installed, enable the Host-to-ILOM Interconnect with the following steps:

      Note:

      Oracle VM 3.0.3 and earlier do not include a lan-over-usb driver. Therefore, Oracle Hardware Management tools do not support running commands locally over the Host-to-ILOM interconnect. Commands must be run using a remote connection to the serivce processor.

      1. Verify the system SP supports this feature with the following command.

        # /usr/sbin/ilomconfig list interconnect

        If SUBCOMMAND NOT SUPPORTED opens than this feature is not supported by your SP.

      2. Do one of the following:

        • If you want to enable the interconnect automatically, use the following command:

          # /usr/sbin/ilomconfig enable interconnect

          This is the preferred method for configuring the interconnect.

        • If you want to enable the interconnect manually, use the following command:

          # /usr/sbin/ilomconfig enable interconnect --ipaddress=x.x.x.x --netmask=x.x.x.x --hostipaddress=x.x.x.x

    • If oracle-hmp-tools is installed, start the IPMI driver if not already running:

      1. Run the following command to see if IPMItool is running:

        # /sbin/service ipmi status

      2. If IPMItool is not running, type the following command to start it:

        # /etc/init.d/ipmi start
