Integrated Lights-out Manager (ILOM) helps to manage and troubleshoot the complete hardware of a server. With the help of ILOM we can remotely manage a server. We can power on and power off it remotely. Let us see some of the most commonly used commands in the ILOM shell.
Login related commands
-> start /SP/console -- start the SP-console -> show /SP/sessions -- see the currently active sessions -> stop /SP/console -- to stop any user session
Start and stop system
-> start /SYS (start system) -> stop [-force] /SYS (stop system) -> show /SYS (shows the power status) -> reset /SYS (reset host) -> reset /SP (reset ILOM SP) -> set /HOST send_break_action=break (send break signal to the OS) -> reset /CMM (to reset CMM on a blade Chassis)
Locator commands
To set the locator on or off
-> set /SYS LOCATE=on
-> set /SYS LOCATE=off
Networking Commands
To see the current network configuration of ILOM
-> show /SP/network
To set an IP address for ILOM
-> set pendingipdiscovery=static
-> set pendingipaddress=10.10.10.10
-> set pendingipnetmask=255.255.255.0
-> set pendingipgateway=10.10.10.1
-> set commitpending=true
To show SP MAC address
show /SP/network macaddress
If on a Blade chassis, to check the CMM IP :
-> show /CMM/network
User administration
-> show /SP/users (Display all the ILOM users) -> show /SP/user/admin (Display configuration settings of a specific user) -> create /SP/users/user_name password=PWD role=[administrator|operator] (create new user) -> delete /SP/users/username (Delete a user) -> set /SP/users/admin01 role=administrator (set the role of a user) -> set /SP/users/admin01 (set or change password of user)
Monitoring and logs
-> show /SP/logs/event/list (ILOM event log) -> show -level all -output table /SP/faultmgmt (List all hardware faults) -> show -level all -output table /SYS type==Temperature value (List all temperature sensor readings)
Hardware info
-> show -level all -output table /SYS type==DIMM (show DIMMS) -> show -level all -output table /SYS type=='Host Processor' (show CPUs) -> show -l all /SYS type=='Hard Disk' (show disks)
