Discovery of Servers in the Factory Default State

If discovery is attempted on a provisionable server that is in the factory default state, the N1 System Manager discovery process will automatically attempt to configure the SSH and IPMI accounts on the provisionable server as part of discovery as follows.

The discovery process will configure credentials as follows:

• Sun Fire X4100 and X4200 servers

  • SSH user = root

  • SSH password = changeme

  • IMPI user = root

  • IMPI password = changeme

• Sun Fire V20z and V40z servers

  • SSH login = admin

  • SSH password = admin

  • IMPI login = Null

  • IMPI password= admin

  • SNMP read community string = public

• Sun Fire V210, V240, V440 servers

  • Telnet login = admin

  • Telnet password = admin

If you have specified the SSH and IPMI login accounts and passwords, the discovery process will configure the provisionable server using the user-specified credentials. If only one credential is specified, the missing credential will be configured with one of the defaults specified above.

If you wish to disable auto configuration, add the following line to the file /etc/opt/sun/n1gc/domain.properties before you run discovery:

com.sun.hss.domain.internal.discovery.initializeDevice=false

The N1 System Manager must be restarted for auto configuration disabling to take effect. Note that once auto configuration is disabled, any servers in factory default state cannot be discovered until their SSH and IPMI accounts are configured.
