[Linux-HA] ipmilan stonith auth error

[Frederik Schueler]

Hello,

I am trying to figure out why ipmilan STONITH loops on the following
error:

heartbeat[20237]: 2007/09/19_23:11:40 info: Resetting node castor with [IPMI Over LAN]
heartbeat[20237]: 2007/09/19_23:11:40 ERROR: glib: Unable to setup connection: 16
heartbeat[20237]: 2007/09/19_23:11:50 ERROR: glib: IPMI operation timed out... :(
heartbeat[20237]: 2007/09/19_23:11:50 info: glib: Host castor ipmilan-reset error. Error = 6.

the config looks as follow:

in /etc/ha.d/ha.cf:

stonith ipmilan /etc/ha.d/conf/stonith.ipmilan


and in /etc/ha.d/conf/stonith.ipmilan:

castor 192.168.7.3 623 md5 admin USER PASS
pollux 192.168.7.4 623 md5 admin USER PASS

querying the BMCs using ipmitool works fine:

pollux:~# ipmitool -I lan -H 192.168.7.3 -A MD5 -U USER -P PASS chassis power status
Chassis Power is on
pollux:~#

doing the STONITH by hand breaks does not:

pollux:/tmp# stonith -t ipmilan -F /etc/ha.d/conf/stonith.ipmilan -T
reset castor

I captured the chat between stonith and the BMC with tcpdump and 
looked into it using wireshark: stonith seems to not use authtype MD5 but
 PLAIN, and gets an AUTH_FAILED from the IPMI card.

Setting both the stonith config and the BMC to authtype NONE does not do
the trick, neither PLAIN/PASSWORD - it keeps throwing the errors above.

Heartbeat used is 2.1.2, built against openipmi 2.0.7, architecture is
amd64 with 64bit userland.


Best regards
Frederik Schüler
