  1. Sieben Einstellungen, kein Setup-Besuch: die BIOS-Konfiguration meines Supermicro-Boards ändern

    Im letzten Beitrag habe ich die BIOS-Konfiguration meines Boards als XML-Datei ausgelesen. Lesen ist die eine Hälfte. Diesmal schreibe ich zurück: sieben Einstellungen, ohne den Rechner auch nur einmal ins Setup zu booten. Warum ich genau diese sieben genommen habe, welche vier ich bewusst in Ruhe gelassen habe, drei Fallstricke, die mich Zeit gekostet haben, und die Frage, ob es dafür nicht einfach eine grafische Oberfläche gibt.

  3. Achtundzwanzig Euro für eine Textdatei: die BIOS-Konfiguration meines Supermicro-Boards auslesen

    Mein Serverboard hat 372 Einstellungen im Setup. Ich wollte sie als Datei haben, nicht als Fotoserie. Drei Wege dorthin waren verschlossen, alle drei mit derselben Begründung. Diese Begründung nannte den Preis, und der lag bei 28,17 Euro. Was ich dafür bekommen habe, was weiterhin gesperrt bleibt, und warum ich vorher eine falsche Schlussfolgerung gezogen hatte.

  5. BIOS erklärt, Teil 1: ein Serverboard als Workstation und der Weg ins Setup

    Unter meinem Schreibtisch steht seit Ende Juli ein Supermicro-Serverboard. Beim Einrichten musste ich bei etlichen BIOS-Einstellungen nachschlagen, obwohl ich sie zu kennen glaubte. Daraus wird jetzt eine Serie: jede Einstellung einmal in Ruhe durchdacht. Teil 1 klärt, warum ein Server-BIOS eine andere Hausnummer ist, wie man ohne Monitor hineinkommt, und warum Supermicro mir das Auslesen der eigenen Konfiguration nicht gönnt.

  11. Ich erwäge, den Server nachts abzuschalten und morgens zu starten. Leider gibt es bislang Probleme beim Reboot, wenn das System ein paar Tage gelaufen ist. Ganz zu schweigen davon, dass ich wohl #Podman Quadlets meistern und die automatisierte LUKS-Entschlüsselung sauber hinbekommen müsste. Aber eins nach dem anderen...

    Also versuche ich, ob ein UEFI-Upgrade hilft. Also zuerst mal #BMC für #IPMI konfiguriert und darüber das Upgrade gemacht. So weit, so gut. ✅

    Hab jetzt rausgefunden, dass man das Upgrade von #UEFI bei #SuperMicro wohl am Besten via Webinterface aktualisiert. Jetzt scheitere ich daran, dass ein Product Key verlangt wird. Erst mal schauen, wo ich den wieder her bekomme.

    Und was habt Ihr heute so gemacht?

  12. Upgrade BMC firmware via IPMI with rollback support. Use ipmitool fwupdate with raw binary, sending chunks over Update Firmware command (0x0C 0x01). Save current image to flash partition for recovery. Works on Linux with ipmitool 1.8.18+ and Dell iDRAC 9+. #ipmi #firmware #snippet

  13. Audit and clean up BMC user accounts with this ipmitool snippet. Enumerate all IPMI users (IDs 1-15), check privilege levels, and remove unauthorized accounts. Works on Linux and Windows. #ipmi #snippet #audit

  14. I wanted to add a button to Home Assistant that would turn on my remote server via IPMI. I also did not want to add the ipmitool dependencies to my #HASS container. Since IPMI supports redfish, a simple rest command in home assistant is enough. Add this to your `configuration.yaml`:

    ```yaml
    rest_command:
    # Command to turn the server ON
    server_power_on:
    url: "https://192.168.100.111/redfish/v1/Systems/1/Actions/ComputerSystem.Reset"
    method: post
    username: "hass"
    password: "eX4mP13p455w0Rd"
    verify_ssl: false
    headers:
    Content-Type: "application/json"
    payload: '{"ResetType": "On"}'

    # Command to gracefully shut down the OS via IPMI (ACPI signal)
    server_power_off:
    url: "https://192.168.100.111/redfish/v1/Systems/1/Actions/ComputerSystem.Reset"
    method: post
    username: "hass"
    password: "eX4mP13p455w0Rd"
    verify_ssl: false
    headers:
    Content-Type: "application/json"
    payload: '{"ResetType": "GracefulShutdown"}'

    sensor:
    - platform: rest
    name: "Server Power State"
    resource: "https://192.168.100.111/redfish/v1/Systems/1"
    method: GET
    username: "hass"
    password: "eX4mP13p455w0Rd"
    verify_ssl: false
    scan_interval: 10 # Checks every 10 seconds
    value_template: "{{ value_json.PowerState }}"

    template:
    - switch:
    - name: "Server"
    state: "{{ is_state('sensor.server_power_state', 'On') }}"
    icon: >-
    {% if is_state('sensor.server_power_state', 'On') %}
    mdi:server-network
    {% else %}
    mdi:server-network-off
    {% endif %}
    turn_on:
    action: rest_command.server_power_on
    turn_off:
    action: rest_command.server_power_off

    ```

    Make sure to create a separate IPMI user with "Operator" privileges (allowed to start/shutdown, but not to modify settings). If you have e.g. #Proxmox on the server, it will receive the IPMI Graceful Shutdown command and cleanly stop all VMs before exiting.

    Works great!

  21. Ok, I have connection to IPMI again, but it doesn‘t look good: kernel at boot time…

    The problem:
    I can't really access the IPMI interface via browser. I'm getting locked out immediatedly, see reddit.com/r/techsupport/comme - but resetting BMC doesn't help. Neither FF nor Safari or Chromium is able to access the IPMI interface. Only IPMIview from the IOS App Store is able to login, but there I can't mount an ISO image to boot a rescue system...

    So, if someone has a tip or an idea, I'm open for suggestions...

  36. JetKVM Gives You a Keyboard, Video, and More From Anywhere

    I’ve used a lot of KVM (keyboard, video, and mouse) switches over the years, but the JetKVM is a whole new ballgame. It’s a tiny and high-quality device that gives access to any computer from anywhere. Launched as a Kickstarter, it’s way more mature than I expected, and a lot cheaper than the competition at under $70. I bought four for me (and one as a gift) and wish I got more!

    The JetKVM is a compact but full-featured device that lets you control a computer from anywhere

    Note: The “Jet” in JetKVM makes me think of the 1973 single by Paul McCartney & Wings, so I’m using their songs as headers in this article. Turn on some power pop to get the full experience.

    Band on the Run

    I’m a nerd and I have lots of computers. Web servers, routers, home automation, and a whole lot more. Too many, really. I built a server into an old Macintosh SE and built a giant file server. That sort of thing. I even repatriated all of my web servers (which I swear I will eventually document), my Activepieces instance, my YOURLS link shortener, and more. Kubernetes? Yeah, I got that in my coffee table.

    The problem is, none of this is really production-ready. And it always seems to fall over whenever I go out of town. So I’ve been relying on a combination of Home Assistant-driven Z-Wave switches, big honkin’ batteries, jump hosts, and luck to keep things running. But sometimes all this can fail: What if the server is powered off? Or stuck at POST? And what if you need to adjust something in the BIOS screen? Wouldn’t it be amazing to be able to reset the power or plug in a USB drive from anywhere?

    Sure some computers have out-of-band management built in: My FreeNAS TrueNAS server uses a Supermicro motherboard with (sketchy) IPMI, and I’ve been using a really nice HPE ProLiant server with built-in iLO. But most of my devices are sorely lacking when it comes to remote management! Think of JetKVM as iLO for Everyone!

    Let ‘Em In

    That’s where the JetKVM comes in. While most KVMs are focused on multiplexing your keyboard and monitor for local servers, the JetKVM is a new kind of device: It’s designed to allow you to access one server from anywhere. It’s a simple-looking device with USB, HDMI, Ethernet, and Extension ports on the back and a cute color screen on the front. The whole thing is packaged in a sturdy die cast housing that sits solidly in place. And it’s tiny – about the size of the power brick for your NUC or external hard drive.

    I’ve had pretty good luck with Kickstarters (though there have been some busts…) and the JetKVM is no exception: It was delivered pretty much on schedule and worked perfectly out of the box. The software is surprisingly mature (though not perfect) and the whole experience has been a good one. I’ve got no qualm about giving one to a nerdy friend at Cloud Field Day!

    The JetKVM is well-built, well-designed, and nicely-packaged

    Silly Love Songs

    This is no 3D-printed beta-test monstrosity. Far from it: The JetKVM device is solid, textured, and feels better in the hand than 95% of IT gear out there. It reminds me of unboxing my first Drobo, with sleek smoked-glass solidity that inspires confidence. The packaging isn’t quite Apple-level, but I’m glad they didn’t waste time or money on that. It’s nice enough to be on store shelves and a heck of a lot nicer than the last KVM I bought!

    Another nice aspect of the JetKVM experience is that it comes with everything you need to get started and plugs right in. There’s no need to read the manual or fiddle with configuration: Plug the mini-HDMI-to-HDMI cable and USB-C-to-A cable into your server, plug the Ethernet cable in, and you’re up and running. The little screen shows all you need to know to get started: The IP address and connectivity state are simply and elegantly displayed along with the MAC address and JetKVM logo. This is literally a 1-minute setup!

    Coming Up

    The software works great on mobile or desktop and thankfully seems solid in Safari. The device emulates a USB keyboard and mouse and can pass through your device keyboard or use an on-screen virtual keyboard. The HDMI video can emulate a few popular monitors if needed, and you can even upload your own custom EDID file if you need some specific resolution.

    I do wish the EDID selection included a lower-resolution option, since the text can be hard to read on a browser window. I tend to pick the Dell D7271H since it’s 1080p, but I’ve been thinking of whipping up a 1024×768 option called “NEC MultiSync” for giggles!

    No More Lonely Nights

    The JetKVM also includes a handy virtual media function, allowing you to mount an ISO image uploaded to the device or from a URL. A forthcoming update will allow you to stream an image directly through your browser too!

    This is incredibly useful for provisioning new servers. I set up a “crash cart” JetKVM device in the basement, connected it to a spare PC, and did a complete Ubuntu install from the comfy couch upstairs. It was much easier than writing the image to a USB drive and huddling over the machine.

    Unfortunately, the virtual media function only emulates a USB optical drive, so I first had to reconfigure the BIOS to boot from CD/DVD. Happily this is pretty easy to do using the virtual Ctrl-Alt-Delete and function keys, which don’t require a two-finger combination like most modern “multimedia” keyboards. But I had to be quick about it, since it takes a moment for the HDMI to “sync” and show up in the browser, so the BIOS tends to fly by.

    The JetKVM UI is reasonably up to date, though it could use a few features

    Live and Let Die

    The JetKVM is so good as-is that I’m already dreaming of enhancements to this little platform. Here’s a smattering of wish-it-was-better ideas:

    1. I’d love a full-screen mode, preferably with picture-in-picture on iPadOS
    2. Power over Ethernet support would be incredible (it’s apparently in the works)
    3. The whole power situation is a little odd: It has a power splitter cable, but when I power my “crash cart” using a USB-C wall wart the JetKVM reboots when the attached PC shuts down
    4. The Ctrl-Alt-Delete button should be on the main screen since I often open the virtual keyboard just for this one key combo
    5. I’ve had a few instances of the virtual optical drive getting “stuck” with media so it would be nice to be able to completely turn that on and off
    6. Speaking of that, I’d love a reboot button since I’ve had the whole device lock up once
    7. I discovered accidentally that the cute little screen is a touchscreen, though the swipe-in-from-left menu only gives moderately-useful device info
    8. I wish it had a full-sized HDMI port instead of the maddening mini-HDMI; at least it’s not a micro!
    9. I hate that JetKVM Cloud can only authenticate using a Google account

    One more thing: That RJ11 Extension port is very cool, promising incredible control over an ATX PC (using the ATX Power Control board). But I’m still waiting on my ATX extension boards so I couldn’t test it out. In theory the board sits between the power supply and motherboard, enabling you to remotely hard- and soft-reset the PC. And it powers the JetKVM even when the PC is off! But this is all theoretical since my boards are nowhere to be seen and apparently the software isn’t ready anyway. I’ll update this post when/if they arrive!

    The JetKVM is an excellent device, and well worth the price!

    Listen to What the Man Said

    The JetKVM is an excellent little device, and a real steal at $69. It’s wonderfully useful right out of the box and the planned software updates ought to make it even better. If you’re like me and have a few critical PCs without integrated out-of-band management (like HPE iLO or Supermicro IPMI) this little device is a lifesaver. And it even offers a few tricks those expensive enterprise solutions don’t offer!

  37. Wenn man ein Dist-Upgrade von #proxmox startet, sollte man währenddessen nicht andere Dinge parallel tun, denn dann geht der Mac schlafen; das Netzwerk wird getrennt und man kommt nicht mehr drauf.

    Aber dank #IPMI ..

  38. Anyone have any experiences with using a #KVM solution like PyKVM, TinyPilot or NanoKVM for remote access to a system? Particularly with how well the bios setup screens would work with OCR for use with #NVDA?

    I've needed to tinker with my DIY nas setup and having to drag a screen and keyboard over to it each time is really annoying. Unfortunately it doesn't have #IPMI, hence why I'm looking into remote KVMs.
