Oracle^® Server X5-2 Product Notes

Oracle Solaris 11.2 or 11.3 with Desktop Package cannot be powered off using certain options in Oracle ILOM

Bug ID 15795941

Issue: For a server running Oracle Solaris 11.2 or 11.3 with the Desktop Package, the following Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) power-off options do not power off the server:

• When performing a graceful shutdown of the server from the Oracle ILOM web interface.

• When performing a graceful shutdown of the server using stop /System command from the Oracle ILOM command-line interface (CLI).

Other power off options work normally.

Affected software: Oracle Solaris 11.2 and 11.3

Workaround:

Perform one of the following workarounds on the server running Oracle Solaris depending on whether you plan on using the Oracle ILOM CLI or web interface to power-off the server.

• To use the Oracle ILOM CLI for power-off, first do the following at the server running Oracle Solaris:

• 1. In /usr/share/dbus-1/services/gnome-power-manager.service, add --verbose to the following line: Exec=/usr/bin/gnome-power-manager

     The edited line should read:

     Exec=/usr/bin/gnome-power-manager --verbose

• To use the Oracle ILOM web interface for power-off, first do the following at the server running Oracle Solaris:

  1. Select System → Preferences → Startup Applications from the gnome-panel's menu list.

  2. Select Power Manager → Edit.

  3. Add --verbose to the following line: gnome-power-manager.

     The edited line should read:

     gnome-power-manager --verbose
