Request spare systems to test ipmi password reset cookbook
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Could you assign me one dell and one HP server so that i can test the new sre.hosts.ipmi-passwrod-reset cookbook. Im only testing IPMI so the systems do not need to have an OS

Thanks John

Ok, wmf4660 was restbase1005 back in the day. As such, it has NO SSDs any longer (they were migrated) and has no data storage at all.

It's mgmt is currently offline, so we'll need @Cmjohnson to investigate its mgmt and bring it online.

Trying to ping or ssh to wmf4660.mgmt.eqiad.wmnet fails, chris will need to investigate and bring mgmt back online.

Also, I've skipped asking for @faidon's permission to use this spare server, since it is a few things:

  1. temp allocation just for ipmi scripting
  2. out of warranty hp system that has no disks and is thus useless for anythign but ipmi testing without adding disks

Chris is going to set this back up for use, it was disconnected due to reshuffling of systems.

no longer required as reset has been tested in production
