How to configure the JBOD IPMI port
The JBOD chassis offers intelligent management with IPMI
providing hardware health monitoring and remote power
control.
Prerequisite(s):
Your host computer must be on the same network as the
JBOD IPMI interface. If necessary, change your host IP to
192.168.1.10/24 .
JBODs must be monitored separate from any head unit. Like the
head unit, there is no audible alarm. You should set up alerts to
notify you of any power supply issues.
1. Directly connect using your host computer to the JBOD
IPMI port using an Ethernet cable.
2. On the host computer open a web browser to
http://192.168.1.99 , and log on with the user name
ADMIN and password ADMIN in caps.
If you have trouble connecting, see JBOD IPMI reset FAQ .
3. Make changes as needed, such as:
● Change the ADMIN password
● Change the network configuration to use DHCP
●
