Security incident at OVH

[bfj]

In BHS, all nodes are IPMI-based, so if you use ipmitool on the node, you can check the System Event Log for an MCE.

Really? I just tried it on my OVH-S16 Dedicated and it threw: 

Setting up ipmitool (1.8.11-5) ...

[....] Starting IPMI event daemon ipmievdipmievd: using pidfile /var/run/ipmievd.pid0

Could not open device at /dev/ipmi0 or /dev/ipmi/0 or /dev/ipmidev/0: No such file or directory

Unable to open interface

 failed!

 

Are you sure this is not a feature you have to add?

Probably needs the module loaded?

Probably needs the module loaded?

Just tried, unless you have to being using the shit OS that OVH comes with default. 

st# modprobe ipmi_si

ERROR: could not insert 'ipmi_si': No such device

st# modprobe ipmi_kcs_drv

FATAL: Module ipmi_kcs_drv not found.

 

Still no go unfortunately.

Well, no such device means no such device. Looks like not every device is IPMI enabled. yes, I'm a member of the tautology club.

What does dmidecode say the motherboard is?

Probably the same as mine:

Manufacturer: Intel Corporation
Product Name: DH61AG
Version: AAG23736-503

No IPMI on there, unfortunately.
