Resetting the IPMI on an appliance node
If the Veritas Remote Management Console stops responding, you can reset it using the system ipmi reset command.
To reset the IPMI
- Log on to the Access Appliance shell menu.
- Run the following command:
system ipmi reset
- The following prompt displays:
>> Resetting the IPMI disconnects all current IPMI users. Are you sure you want to reset the IPMI? [yes, no]:
Type yes and press Enter.
- The IPMI starts resetting in the background. Wait for 2 minutes before you attempt to reconnect to the Veritas Remote Management Console.
If you cannot access the Veritas Remote Management Console after resetting the IPMI, perform the following steps:
Schedule a convenient time for the appliance node shutdown and alert all users.
Shut down the appliance node.
Disconnect all power cables to the appliance node.
Wait for 15 seconds and then reconnect the cables.
Turn on the appliance node.
