Question
I had run the following commands via CLI from CENTOS in order to reset the IPMI but it is not working:



yum install ipmitool -y

modprobe ipmi_devintf

modprobe ipmi_si

ipmitool -I open user set password 2 ADMIN



Could you please give some advice on how can I reset or update the IPMi from CLI CENTOS?
Answer
Please use IPMICFG utility to reset the IPMI chipset back to factory default. The utility needs to run on physical server.



Download IPMICFG utility:

{ https://www.supermicro.com/wdl/utility/IPMICFG/ }



Run command below to reset IPMI to factory default:

ipmicfg -fd (DOS)

ipmicfg-win -fd (Windows)

ipmicfg-linux.x86_64 -fd (Linux)



Wait for 1-2 minutes for IPMI chipset reboot.
