Posted: Tue Mar 19, 2013 4:46 pm Post subject: WOL Not working with Supermicro X7SPA-HF-D525-O [Solved] |
|
|
I have had wake on lan working on my X7SPA-HF-D525 for a while and then one day it just stopped working. I believe I have everything enabled correctly on the system wtih `ethtool -s eth0 wol g`. There doesn't appear to be a setting anywhere in the bios to enabled WOL. I am looking for possible reasons this is not working. Could there be a problem in IPMI?

Looks like there may be a BIOS setting: "Please check if wake up the server by MAC address; usually this is set to magic packet."
-from their website: http://www.supermicro.com/support/faqs/faq.cfm?faq=11682
If not, maybe a BIOS update is in order? _________________ Unanswered posts need love too.

I am pretty sure thats the Windows equivalent of "Wake-on: g". I have been thinking about a bios update, just wanted to check here first and make sure I didnt miss or forget something. |

It sounds to me like they're talking about a BIOS option...then telling you to ADDITIONALLY check the settings in the Windows Device Manager.
So there's nothing about 'wake,' 'mac address,' or 'magic packet' anywhere in the BIOS? _________________ Unanswered posts need love too.

If there is a bios setting its not called WOL Wakup by Mac or anything similar. I have tried the following with no luck:
Reflash IPMI Firmware
Reset IPMI to factory default
Reflash BIOS
Clear CMOS
Set bios to fail safe defaults
Set bios to optimal defaults
Something looks a bit fishy with /proc/acpi/wakeup because my Ethernet cards are not showing up in there. I think we may have a case of buggy bios or rubbish hardware.

So I finally solved the problem. It turns out that if IPMI is enabled, WOL does not work. There is no documentation about that from SuperMicro and I am not sure there is any reason it shouldn't work. Yet another bug laden bios we have come to expect from SuperMicro. |

Hi KWhat,
can you tell me which IPMI firmware version do you have? I have the same MB and use it together with a custom linux distribution called UnRAID as an NAS. My problem is that I can't properly wake up the server... the problem is here described: UnRAID forum.
My version is 2.66, Supermicro relesed a newer version 2.67 but unfortunately there is no changelog... I already contacted Supermicro support for the changelog, but didn't become an answer... I'm not sure if I should update the firmware, because I'm not sure if the newer firmware will fix the problem. I don't won't to disable it, because I use it:) |

Hi Aspik,
I don't remember what version of the firmware I was running, the server has since been decommissioned, but fortunitly for you, the motherboard is still sitting on my desk! I'll fire it up tonight and let you know what version it has flashed. IIRC I either ran IPMI on the secondary nic with a different mac/ip and switch port or complacently disabled it because it never really worked correctly. That Java based remote viewer was never able to receive keyboard input and I believe there were a ton of unpatched security advisories related to it.
Hope that helps! |

Good that you still have the board:) I'll wait for your info regarding the version. For me IPMIView works fine, even KVM console, so far no issues. I don't use it over Internet, only in my home LAN, so I'm not afraid of security bugs. I already tried to update the firmware through IPMIView, but it failed (connection refused... don't know why). I guess I'll have to find a spare keyboard, display and do it locally...
It is such a great board for homemade NAS! With the working WOL would it be perfect for me!
Thanks for your help! |
