ipmitool doesn`t get any respond from idrac

I`m trying to communicate with server/idrac via ipmitool.

I enabled ipmi over lan in idrac  but I have no answer from server via powershell.

 

PS  C:\Program Files\Dell\SysMgt\OM_iDRACTools\IPMI> .\ipmitool -I lanplus -H 192.168.1.63 -U root -P calvin power status

PS C:\Program Files\Dell\SysMgt\OM_iDRACTools\IPMI>

 

Where is the problem?

idrac 6.10.30.20 (15g)

Ok there was a problem in interface, I have to use wmi not lanplus interface.

 

PS C:\Program Files\Dell\SysMgt\OM_iDRACTools\IPMI> .\ipmitool -I wmi -H 192.168.1.63 -U root -P calvin sdr list full

Can you tell me where can be a problem? There are some new setting in idrac9 and 15th generation?

Because previous generation worked only with these settings (see in the pic).

Hi, please check these articles, they may helpful. 

iDRAC may stop accepting remote IPMI commands after importing iDRAC User attributes with "Password Hash Values" feature enabled https://dell.to/3mpfRMU

To configure IPMI over LAN https://dell.to/3o5BqSV.

Thanks for your reply but I have no error msg, I didn`t import any config,  I have blank msg from idrac... but you ispired me and I tried random noexist user with the same blank answer. There is a problem is in Windows, respectively in ipmitool.

 

PS C:\Program Files\Dell\SysMgt\OM_iDRACTools\IPMI> .\ipmitool -I lanplus -H 192.168.1.63 -U random -P random sdr list full

Problem is not solved because there is anoher problem with verification.

There is no user verification. root with random pass has the same answer.

PS C:\Program Files\Dell\SysMgt\OM_iDRACTools\IPMI> .\ipmitool.exe -I wmi -H 192.168.1.63 -U root -P calvin chassis power status
Chassis Power is on
PS C:\Program Files\Dell\SysMgt\OM_iDRACTools\IPMI> .\ipmitool.exe -I wmi -H 192.168.1.63 -U root -P blabla chassis power status
Chassis Power is on

Could you check your IPMI with this? https://dell.to/3zVyrzq.

Guys I appreciate your effort but ipmi is ok because I can see output of power status or sdr list full.

But I`ve checked ipmi via troubleshooting is you want and test was ok.

There is a problem with authetication process...idrac accept anyone as guest probably,

I`ve tried no user with blank password.

C:\Program Files\Dell\SysMgt\OM_iDRACTools\IPMI>.\ipmitool.exe -I wmi -H 192.168.1.63 chassis power status
Password:
Chassis Power is on

 

or 

C:\Program Files\Dell\SysMgt\OM_iDRACTools\IPMI>.\ipmitool.exe -I wmi -H 192.168.1.63 sdr list full

I didn`t any change in the begining in idrac and I upgraded idrac in last version so I think reset idrac is another false way.

I'm wondering what could be the issue. Could you check ISM (iDRAC service module) is up to date? Might be some ISM functionality is required for some features to run properly.
