Running bmc-tool

The bmc software application enables you to manage and configure PowerEdge C Baseboard Management Controller by using command line interface (CLI). BMC abstracts some of the complicated IPMI commands and provides simple, Linux-type of interface. It works with all PowerEdge C models and attempts to provide the most-commonly used commands in an easy format.
  1. Boot the PowerEdge C server by using the Linux-Based Diagnostics Tools (Dell 12G-14G servers) option.
    The CentOS desktop is displayed.
  2. Double-click the gnome-terminal icon.
    The GNOME terminal window is displayed.
  3. At the command prompt, type bmc.
    The list of options is displayed.
The output from BMC is included in PECLogs report for troubleshooting.
