Rebooting the IPMI interface

In the event the IPMI needs to be rebooted, this can be done via a Linux host using the tool "ipmitool"

If you have local access to the host OS, you can run the following command

ipmitool mc reset cold

This can also be sent remotely if you know the IPMI IP address.

ipmitool -I lanplus -H <ipmi IP> -U <user> -P <password> mc reset cold

Please note it will take up to 5 minutes for the IPMI to reset, during this period the IPMI will be inaccessible.
