Goal is having a single program or script that can be run, that will boot up all selected IPMI and AMT-based servers at the same time.
CURRENT STATUS:
- Credential collection working
- IPMItool support working
- AMT support in progress
- Error handling half-broken
TODO:
- Complete AMT functionality
- Reword script to follow functional programming tenents
- Look at feasability of providing "nice" shutdown functionality
- Figure out why getopts ? and : options aren't working properly
ASSUMPTIONS:
- IPMI is already set up for LAN access
- All servers use the same username and password for authentication
- Either IP addresses or hostnames are routable from your launch point
SETUP:
- Install ipmitool
- wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/raulnor516/Homelab-Boot-up/master/siege_launch.sh
- make a file called "ipmi_targs.txt" in the same directory as siege_launch.sh
- Add one IP address or hostname per line for each IPMI-enabled server you want to start
- call siege_launch.sh -u [username] -p [password]
This is my first ever programming project, but i hope someone finds it useful!
