Set the IPMI State and Session Properties (CLI)

Before You Begin

  • The IPMI state property in Oracle ILOM is enabled by default.
  • As of Oracle ILOM firmware v5.0.x, the following IPMI properties are shipped enabled: Service State, and TLS Sessions. The session property for v2.0 is shipped disabled.
  • Admin (a) role privileges are required to change the IPMI Service State or Session properties in Oracle ILOM.

    Note:

    The TLS Session property is always enabled and cannot be modified.

Follow these steps to set the IPMI state and sessions properties using the Oracle ILOM CLI:

  1. Log in to the Oracle ILOM CLI using an account with admin (a) role privileges.
  2. To set the IPMI state property, issue the following command:
    -> set /SP/services/ipmi state=[enabled|disabled]
                   

    Where: [enabled|disabled], type enabled to enable the ipmi state property, or type disabled to disable the ipmi state property.

    Note:

    If the IPMI Service State is disabled, system management information using the IPMItool utility is not accessible.
  3. To set the IPMI session properties, issue the following command:
    -> set /SP/services/ipmi v2_0_sessions=[enabled|disabled] 
                   

    Note:

    TLS sessions (tls_sessions) are enabled by default. To disable TLS sessions, you must disable the IPMI State property.

    Where:

    • v2_0_sessions=[enabled|disabled] applies only to the IPMI v2.0 session property. Type: v_2_0_sessions=enabled to enable the IPMI v2.0 sessions; or Type: v_2_0_sessions=disabled to disable the IPMI v2.0 sessions.
