NEC ESMPRO Manager Ver.5 Installation Guide (Linux)

Chapter1 About NEC ESMPRO Manager

NEC ESMPRO Manager is software designed for reducing operational management costs by remotely managing servers.

The ESMPRO Manager is primarily made up of “NEC ESMPRO Manager” running on a management PC

(called a “ESMPRO Manager server”) and “NEC ESMPRO Agent Extension” running on a managed server.

Remotely manageable servers with ESMPRO Manager are the servers that conform to IPMI (Intelligent

Platform Management Interface) Ver.1.5 or Ver.2.0 as the industry standard for server management.

The ESMPRO Manager provides the following capabilities:

 Rebuilding even if the operating system on the managed server has failed.

Even if the operating system on the managed server is inoperable (in the state of operating system’s stall, BIOS POST (Power On Self Test), or DC OFF), ESMPRO Manager allows you to collect the managed server’s hardware information and control the power supply.

 Operation while viewing the managed server’s screen.

While key-in and mouse operations are enabled, the managed server’s screen can be viewed on the remote browser at any time during POST just after the managed server is turned ON.

 Operation of more than one managed server at a time.

By specifying a server group, you can provide power control or change a setting for managed servers through a single operation.

 Specification of remote operation time

The managed server can be turned OFF or information can be collected at pre-specified time, so

ESMPRO Manager is available for nighttime batch processing.

 Easy operation through the Internet.

The managed server can be operated with a Web browser. If you use Internet’s standard SSL (Secure

Socket Layer) for the ESMPRO Manager, you enable secure remote operation from an external network.

NEC ESMPRO Manager Ver.5 Installation Guide (Linux)

-- There are 2 types of managed servers that BMC uses standard LAN port: one type is permitted to use only LAN1 port, and the other type is permitted to use both LAN1 and LAN2 ports. See the

“Appendix C. Managed Servers Summary” of the “NEC ESMPRO Manager Ver.5 Setup Guide”.

NEC ESMPRO Manager Ver.5 Installation Guide (Linux)

2.4.1 Notes on Managed Servers and Network Devices

This section explains particular notes on managed servers and network devices.

-- Use of network switch / router

If the managed server installed BMC that uses a standard LAN port or loaded Advanced Remote

Management Card, and there is network switch / router between manager server and the managed servers, please set the network switch / router to receive Gratuitous ARP.

See each instruction manual of the switch / router about how to set it.

-- Use of a layer-2/layer-3 switching hub

Set “Disable” for the STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) function of the switching hub or the STP of the port to which a managed server is connected.

Set “Enable” for the auto-negotiation function of the port to which a managed server is connected.

-- Use of DHCP

In case that BMC on the managed server uses a standard LAN port, communication between the NEC

ESMPRO Manager and System BIOS or BMC is not compatible with a DHCP environment.

Be sure to use a fixed IP address with the NEC ESMPRO Manager server in which the NEC ESMPRO

Manager is to be installed.

To use a managed server in a DHCP environment, start the DianaScope Agent or NEC ESMPRO Agent

Extension.

-- Setting of Teaming for standard LAN with the OS (providing redundancy or multiplexing with multiple network adapters) for the managed server installed BMC that uses a standard LAN port:

The managed server installed BMC that uses a standard LAN port shares the embedded standard LAN controller between BMC, System BIOS and OS, but the BMC and System BIOS do not support the LAN teaming modes including AFT (Adapter Fault Tolerance) and ALB (Adaptive Load Balancing). So if the

AFT mode or ALB mode was made available by OS, NEC ESMPRO Manager can communicate with

BMC and System BIOS only under the following conditions while Failover does not occur.

- If RLB (Receive Load Balancing) is set with ALB (Adaptive Load Balancing), disable the RLB. (If RLB

cannot be disabled, NEC ESMPRO Manager cannot communicate with BMC.)

- Make the Teaming-set address (“preferred primary”) identical to the LAN1 IP address and MAC address

in the BMC configuration information.

- Even if the configuration of LAN2 for the BMC on the managed server is available, do not set LAN2 in

the BMC configuration information.

- Even if the configuration of LAN2 for the BMC on the managed server is available, do not set LAN2 in

the BMC configuration information.

- If the teaming is set with channel bonding on Linux, please add “mode” and “primary” definition to the

line of /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modules.conf as following. options bondname mode=1 primary=eth0 miimon=100

-- Setting of Teaming for LAN with the OS (providing redundancy or multiplexing with multiple network adapters) for the managed server installed BMC that uses an exclusive LAN port (Management LAN port):

If the teaming setting was made available for the LAN port that DianaScope Agent or NEC ESMPRO

Agent Extension uses, see “Appendix C. Managed Servers Summary” of the “NEC ESMPRO Manager

Ver.5 Setup Guide”.

NEC ESMPRO Manager Ver.5 Installation Guide (Linux)

-- Change of the hardware of a default gateway or an alert receiver

In case that there is a gateway between NEC ESMPRO Manager server and a managed server, re-configure

BMC on the managed server after the change the hardware of the gateway. In case that there is not gateway between an alert receiver and a managed server, re-configure BMC on the managed server after the change the hardware of the alert receiver. The BMC on the managed server can know MAC address of the new hardware by setting the BMC configuration.

-- Use of a dialup router or a PPP server

If an alert receiver via modem uses Windows Remote Access Service, please select “Allow any authentication including clear text” about the encryption on the Windows Remote Access Service properties.

-- Restrictions on use of the standard serial port 2 (COM2)

The standard serial port 2 (COM2) on a managed server cannot be used for connecting another device in the following cases because the BMC occupies the serial port 2:

- The managed server compatible with SOL and set enable on following BMC Configuration items:

“Remote control (WAN/Direct)”

“Redirection (LAN)”

“Redirection (WAN/Direct)”

- Connection via modem or Direct connection has been made.

- Direct connection has been set in the BMC configuration information. (Even if the NEC ESMPRO

Manager and managed server are not connected, the BMC occupies the serial port 2 (COM2).)

CHECK:



See “Appendix C. Managed Servers Summary” of the “NEC ESMPRO Manager Ver.5

Setup Guide” to confirm whether that your server supports SOL.

NEC ESMPRO Manager Ver.5 Installation Guide (Linux)

Chapter4 Precautions for Use

4.1 About NEC ESMPRO Manager

4.1.1 About use of two or more NEC ESMPRO Manager

A single managed server can be controlled remotely by up to three NEC ESMPRO Manager servers. Follow these notes on the remote control:

-- Use only one NEC ESMPRO Manager to set/execute the scheduled running function and remote batch function.

-- While one NEC ESMPRO Manager is using the remote console function of a managed server, the other

NEC ESMPRO Managers cannot use the managed server’s remote console function.

-- More than one NEC ESMPRO Manager cannot collect IPMI information from the same managed server concurrently.

-- Use one NEC ESMPRO Manager for managing an EM card. Use one NEC ESMPRO Manager for all EM cards and CPU blades on one blade enclosure.

4.1.2 About Power Control

4.1.2.1 Power OFF, Power Cycle, Reset, and Dump

Since power control is provided by hardware regardless of the state of the managed server’s operating system, the system may be damaged. Be careful of operation under power control.

4.1.2.2 Power OFF, Power Cycle, Reset with the BIOS Setup Utility Active

Do not control the power supply while the BIOS Setup Utility is active on the managed server. Otherwise, the alert setting of BMC configuration will be disabled.

4.1.3 About IPMI Information Collection

While a managed server is tuned OFF, some records of management controller information and FRU (Field

Replaceable Unit) information cannot be read in. Error messages about records which could not be read in are shown in the details display area.

The current status of some sensors cannot be read in either while the managed server is turned OFF.

4.1.4 About Remote Console

4.1.4.1 Restriction on Concurrent Connection to the Remote Console

When a single NEC ESMPRO Manager is operating the remote console of a managed server, another

Manager cannot execute the remote console function for the managed server. A managed server can transmit redirection data to only a single NEC ESMPRO Manager.

4.1.4.2 About Remote Console before OS boot or during DOS program running

If a graphic screen is displayed on a managed server, data cannot be displayed correctly on the CUI remote console. The CUI remote console screen is displayed only when the managed server displays a text screen.

If the DOS program running on a managed server displays Japanese words, follow these notes:

-- On the BIOS Setup Utility screen of the managed server, select “Server”

 “Console Redirection” and change Terminal Type” to “PC-ANSI” in advance. (If a managed server of which BIOS Setup does not include the item Terminal Type, Terminal Type is already set to PC-ANSI, so the managed server can be used as it is.)

-- Boot the DOS in English mode (with no Japanese-language driver). At this time, the screen contents cannot be displayed correctly on the managed server, but Japanese words are displayed correctly on the CUI remote console of the NEC ESMPRO Manager.

NEC ESMPRO Manager Ver.5 Installation Guide (Linux)

4.1.4.3 About Remote Console after starting Linux

Notes in the case of using the remote console after starting Linux on the managed server by the redirection function of Linux are shown below.

-- The Home key and End key are not enabled when you operate Linux with the CUI remote console function.

-- If the managed server is rebooted after NEC ESMPRO Manager displays CUI remote console for the managed server that runs Linux, you may not input following keys on remote console:

F5-F12, Arrows, Insert, Delete, Home, End, Page Up, and Page Down.

Close the remote console window and re-open it.

4.1.4.4 About the display of a special character

The CUI remote console screen is not displayed correctly in the following cases:

-- Terminal Type

If Terminal Type is not set to PC-ANSI on the BIOS Setup Utility screen of a managed server, Japanese words on the POST or DOS screen cannot be displayed correctly on the CUI remote console.

-- Special character

Ruled lines, arrows correctly and en-size left arrows cannot be displayed.

4.1.4.5 In Case of Key-in Failure on the Remote Console

During DOS boot or access to the FD or CD-ROM drive immediately after the managed server’s power switch is turned ON, data cannot be keyed in from the remote console or the keyed data display may be delayed.

4.1.4.6 About power off during GUI remote console

If the managed server is forced a power off by using a power button, reset or pushing DUMP switch during

GUI remote console, the GUI remote console will not be updated. Please reopen the remote console window in this case.

4.1.5 Power Management

The power value which NEC ESMPRO Manager reads from the managed server has about +/-10% margin of error.

4.1.6 About CPU blade auto registration

-- When “Check Connection” of “CPU blade auto registration” was failed.

Retry of “CPU Blade auto registration” is not necessary. You can execute “Check Connection” on “Server

Properties” – “Connection Setting”. If a specified IP address is set from a CPU blade to another CPU blade during “CPU blade auto registration” process (ex. when you replace CPU blade and execute “CPU blade auto registration”), NEC ESMPRO Manager may not be able to connect the CPU blade because old information remains in the ARP table on the management PC. Wait for a few minutes and try the “Check

Connection”.

4.1.7 About the coexistence of NEC ESMPRO Manager with DianaScope

Agent or NEC ESMPRO Anget Extension on the same server

If the managed server is installed Advanced Remote Management Card or EXPRESSSCOPE Engine series

(the BMC uses exclusive LAN port (management LAN port)), NEC ESMPRO Manager can manage the server itself installed. Notice that you cannot use the GUI Remote Console function,

It the managed server is installed BMC that uses the standard LAN port, NEC ESMPRO Manager cannot manage the server itself installed. It is possible only to install NEC ESMPRO Manager and DianaScope

Agent or NEC ESMPRO Agent Extension on the same server. But the communication with BMC on the server is prevented by local loopback function of OS and the BMC cannot receive any packets from the NEC

ESMPRO Manager.

NEC ESMPRO Manager Ver.5 Installation Guide (Linux)

4.2 About managed server

4.2.1 About Windows Firewall

If Windows firewall is enabled on the managed server, DianaScope Agent or NEC ESMPRO Agent

Extension may not work correctly.

Please perform following settings:

(1) Open “Windows firewall” from “control panel” of Windows.

(2) Select “Add Port” on “Exceptions” tab page.

(3) Enter following setting:

If the remote console does not display the Windows screen of the managed server:

The setting of GUI remote console function is enabled: 47130

The setting of GUI remote console function is disabled: 5900

TCP/UDP: TCP

See 4.2.2.5”About Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition” for remote console function.

4.2.2 About Remote Console

The SOL (Serial over LAN) system implements a CUI remote console via LAN by the following method: the

BMC gets redirection data that has been output to the serial port 2 by System BIOS or console-less OS and transmits the data via the LAN. If the remote console has been set in the BMC configuration information, the serial port 2 (COM2) cannot be used for connecting another device such as UPS because the BMC occupies the serial port 2.Please refer to “Appendix C. Managed Servers Summary” of the “NEC ESMPRO Manager

Ver.5 Setup Guide” to confirm the managed server supports SOL.

The remote console of Linux or SAC (Special Administration Console) of Windows Server 2003 can be used when the managed server support SOL. However, there are the following notes:

-- Use of serial port 2 is restricted. See 2.4.1 ”Notes on Managed Servers and Network Devices”.

There are the following notes in the managed server which does not support SOL:

-- Do not attempt to boot Windows or Linux on the managed server when you use Remote Control function with utility boot mode via LAN connection. Booting of Windows or Linux may result in a failure.

-- To operate RAID EzAssist for a SOL-incompatible managed server from the CUI remote console via LAN, set the item “Console Redirection” to “Disable” on the BIOS Setup Utility screen, reboot the system, and then boot the RAID EzAssist Configuration Utility.

-- The remote console by the redirection function of Linux and the remote console of SAC (Special

Administration Console) of Windows Server 2003 cannot be used via LAN.

4.2.2.2 About video adapter

When the managed server does not use the driver corresponding to the video adapter, the remote console of

NEC ESMPRO Manager may not display the Windows screen.

If the remote console does not display the Windows screen of the managed server, please confirm a setting

NEC ESMPRO Manager Ver.5 Installation Guide (Linux) shown below at the managed server side.

-- The driver corresponding to the video adapter is set in properties for Display of Windows.

4.2.2.3 Power Control with the BIOS Setup Utility Active

Do not control the power supply while the BIOS Setup Utility is active on the managed server. Otherwise, the alert setting of BMC configuration will be disabled.

4.2.2.4 CUI Remote Console of DOS

To execute the CUI remote console function of the DOS screen, select “Server” -> “Console Redirection” and change “ACPI Redirection” to “Disable” on the BIOS Setup Utility screen of the managed server if

“ACPI Redirection” exists on the “Console Redirection”.

4.2.2.5 About Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition

If OS of managed server is Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition, the remote console of NEC ESMPRO

Manager may not display the Windows screen correctly. Please perform following settings:

(1) To open the properties dialog box of VNC, click “Start” -> “All Programs” -> “VNC” ->

“Administrative Tools” -> “Slow Default Settings”.

(2) Change following settings in “Update Handling”:

- Uncheck “Poll Console Windows Only”.

- Check “Poll Window Under Cursor”.

(3) Click “OK”.

4.2.2.6 CUI Remote Console after Windows Boot

-- The remote console via LAN cannot be used for SAC if the managed server does not support SOL.

-- To execute the CUI remote console function of the SAC screen after Windows boot, select “Server” ->

“Console Redirection” and change “ACPI Redirection” to “Enable” on the BIOS Setup Utility screen of the managed server. When “ACPI Redirection” is set to “Enable” on the BIOS Setup Utility screen, the

CUI remote console function cannot be executed after POST.

If “ACPI Redirection” does not exist on the “Console Redirection” menu, please confirm that “Console

Redirection after POST” is enabled.

4.2.2.7 CUI Remote Console under Linux

-- The remote console by the redirection function of Linux cannot be used via LAN if the managed server does not support SOL.

-- To execute the CUI remote console function of the Linux redirection, select “Server” -> “Console

Redirection” and change “ACPI Redirection” to “Disable” on the BIOS Setup Utility screen of the managed server if “ACPI Redirection” exists on the “Console Redirection”.

-- When you execute a remote console by the redirection function of Linux, following settings are necessary.

(1) Set as following example at the line that begins with “kernel/vmlinuz” in the setting file

(/boot/grub/grub.conf) on Linux: console=tty0 console=ttyS1,19200n8r

NEC ESMPRO Manager Ver.5 Installation Guide (Linux)

(2) Make a setting like the following example in the setting file (/etc/inittab) on Linux:

S0:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty –h –L 19200 ttyS1 vt100

(Explanation of the example setting)

“agetty” is to be used in the following conditions:

* Hardware control (RTS/CTS) is enabled. (This setting is an example. Determine whether to enable/disable it, conforming to the configuration information setting on the managed server.)

* A directly connected local line not requiring carrier detection is assumed.

* Baud rate 19200 bps (This setting is an example. Set the baud rate conforming to the BMC configuration information setting on the managed server.)

* Serial1 port 2 of the managed server is used.

* The terminal type is vt100.

-- Even if connection with a managed server is of any type (LAN, WAN, or Direct), Linux on the managed server recognizes that operation through the remote console of the DianaScope Manager is connection via the serial port. The initial setting on Linux does not permit any super-user (root) to log in via the serial port.

To log in as a super-user, disable the security function for the serial port 2. Be very careful of operation in this case.

To disable the security function for the serial port 2, add “ttyS1” to the /etc/security file.

-- To display the editor or menu screen on the CUI remote console, set the OS terminal screen to the

80-column, 24-line size.

4.2.2.8 In case of Change of the authentication key

If you do not use DianaScope Agent ver.2.00.00 and above, please execute either way below when you change the authentication key of the configuration information,

-- Reboot the managed server.

-- Restart the VNC service on the managed server.

4.2.2.9 About GUI Remote Console

When the OS of the managed server is Windows Server 2008, this function is disabled.

NEC ESMPRO Manager Ver.5 Installation Guide (Linux)

4.3 About BMC Configuration

4.3.1 About BMC Configuration tool

Among the BMC configuration information tools there are some tools which cannot be used to setup

ESMPRO.

-- NEC MWA Agent cannot be used.

-- If the DianaScope is not stored in the NEC EXPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM, “A setup of a system management” stored in the CD-ROM cannot be used.

-- The Console-less function of the NEC EXPRESSBUILDER can be used only when ESMPRO is stored in the same NEC EXPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM.

4.3.2 In Case of Exchange of management PC

If a management PC as an alert receiver has been exchanged, register the managed server’s BMC configuration information again even when the IP address of the management PC remains unchanged.

Otherwise, the BMC may fail to recognize the alert receiver.

4.3.3 About the function “Obtain an IP Address automatically (DHCP)

The managed server included the BMC that uses an exclusive LAN port (Management LAN port) supports the function “Obtain an IP Address automatically (DHCP)”.

(1) Following version of NEC ESMPRO Manager modules supports the setting of the function.

Managed server

The managed server that integrates DianaScope Agent

EXPRESSSCOPE Engine series. DianaScope Configuration

The managed server installed Advanced

Remote Management Card.

DianaScope Agent

DianaScope

DianaScope Configuration

Ver.2.03.05 and above

Ver.1.02 and above

Ver.2.06.00 and above

Ver.1.02 and above

When you use the module that does not support the setting of the function “Obtain an IP Address automatically (DHCP)” for the managed server that supports the function, please note followings:

-- If DianaScope Agent does not support the setting of the function, the DianaScope Agent always set

“disable” for the function when it registers the BMC configuration. The DianaScope Agent also set

“disable” when it writes the BMC configuration information file.

-- If DianaScope Configuration does not support the setting of the function, the DianaScope Configuration always set “disable” for the function when it writes the BMC configuration information file.

-- If “System Management” tool on NEC EXPRESSBUILDER does not support the setting of the function, the tool always set “disable” for the function when it registers the BMC configuration. The tool also set

“disable” when it writes the BMC configuration information file.

-- If remote console feature of NEC EXPRESSBUILDER does not support the setting of the function, the tool always set “disable” for the function when it registers the BMC configuration.

(2) If the managed server has been installed Advanced Remote Management Card, the BMC may not immediately obtain the IP address after DianaScope PXE Service configures the BMC to obtain the IP address by the DHCP. Please turn the managed server AC-OFF and then AC-ON because the BMC try to obtain the IP address whenever the managed server is turned AC-ON.

4.3.4 About shutdown OS

When the screen of a managed server is rocked (for example, by screen saver with password), DianaScope

Agent or NEC ESMPRO Agent Extension cannot shutdown OS of the managed server.
