3.4. Enabling Power Management on Managed Hosts
To perform power management tasks on managed hosts using the intelligent platform management interface (IPMI) or a similar protocol, you must enable the baseboard management controller (BMC) module on Capsule Server.
Prerequisites
- All managed hosts must have a network interface of BMC type. Capsule Server uses this NIC to pass the appropriate credentials to the host. For more information, see Adding a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) Interface in Managing Hosts.
Procedure
To enable BMC, enter the following command:
# satellite-installer --scenario capsule \ --foreman-proxy-bmc "true" \ --foreman-proxy-bmc-default-provider "freeipmi"
