Lenovo XClarity Integrator Service fail to get BMC IP address and fail to authenticate BMC automatically after OS authentication

Generally, Lenovo XClarity Integrator Service can discover BMC and authenticate BMC automatically after the OS authentication. However, this process might be failed if some BMC configuration settings are inappropriate.

Procedure

To get BMC IP address and to authenticate BMC successfully, do the following:

  1. Ensure that the BMC-password-change interval is shorter than the time of the BMC auto-discovery process.

  2. Ensure that the user account with domain administrator permission is connected to a specific host through WMI.

  3. Ensure that the BMC not only uses LDAP authentication.

  4. Ensure that the BMC local account is enabled.

  5. Authenticate the OS again.
