Configure ILOM Watchdog Using ilomconfig Commands

Note:

Starting with Oracle Hardware Management Pack 2.4.9.0, the HMP watchdog agent and associated ILOM and host watchdog services are no longer available.

You must be able to run commands on the host in administrator mode.

This procedure provides basic instructions for using ilomconfig commands to configure the watchdog timer. For more details, see ILOM Watchdog ilomconfig Commands in Oracle Hardware Management Pack 2.4 Server CLI Tools User’s Guide.

  1. To modify the ILOM watchdog timer, use the following commands:
    • To enable or disable the ILOM watchdog:

      # ilomconfig enable|disable ilomwatchdog

    • To modify the ILOM watchdog settings:

    • # ilomconfig modify ilomwatchdog --option

      where option is one of:

      Option Possible values Description

      --timer-action=action

      Warning|Reset

      This sets the ilom_watchdog_timer_action parameter, which determines the action the ILOM watchdog takes when Oracle ILOM is not responsive.

      --number-sp-reset=numspreset

      Positive integer up to 20

      This sets the ilom_watchdog_number_sp_reset parameter, which determines the number of times the SP can be reset consecutively.

      --query-interval=queryinterval

      Positive integer up to 2147483647

      This sets the ilom_watchdog_query_time_interval parameter, which determines the number of seconds between querying for Oracle ILOM's health.
