The SMCIPMITool is an out-of-band Supermicro utility that allows a user to interface with SuperBlade® systems and IPMI devices via CLI (Command Line Interface).

This is only for people who has a dedicated server with Supermicro Motherboard and IPMI feature, to reset the admin password:

1. On Centos, do yum install *IPMI* AND yum install ipmitool
2. restart IPMI by typing service ipmi restart

#service ipmi start
#ipmitool lan print #to check your BMC IP#
if ip address is not available and no DHCP server in your network, try following commands.
#ipmitool lan set 1 ipsrc static #set ip address to static#
#ipmitool lan set 1 defgw ipaddr xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx #set default gateway ip#
#ipmitool lan set 1 defgw macaddr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx #set default gateway MAC address#
#ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx #set BMC ip address#
#ipmitool lan set 1 netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx #set BMC net mask#
#ipmitool -I open user list 1 #find out available users#
#ipmitool user set password X new-pass #set password, where X is the ID of the user from above user list#
