Note that this only works for IX machines!


* Find the machine in the build inventory (https://build.inventory.mozilla.org/build/)
* '''IPMI''':
* click "show"
** make sure you are connected to Mozilla VPN
* click the OOB link
** [Windows]:
* login - see [https://intranet.mozilla.org/RelEngWiki/index.php/Passwords passwords] (auth required)
*** add "-mgmt.inband" to the end of the hostname
*** e.g. http://t-w864-ix-026-mgmt.inband.releng.scl3.mozilla.com/
** [Linux64]:
*** go to the inventory and find the "OOB Ip:" URL and click on it
**  use the credentials stored in Releng private repo to connect
 
If you click "System Information", you can get a snapshot of the current screen image, although often the screen has blanked due to inactivity.  "Remote Control" is your friend otherwise - it gives you access to the system's power control and to a remote-video Java application.
 
If the management interface doesn't work, file a bug for "Server Operations: RelEng" to have a look.
 
* '''PDU''':
** OS X machines: bld-lion-r5, t-yosemite-r7
** go to inventory and find the '''system.pdu''' value
** append "mozilla.com" to the URL (ignore the last three letters)
** go to "Outlet control"
** find the three letter entry and change the dropbox value to "reboot"
** go to the bottom and hit "apply"

  • IPMI:
    • make sure you are connected to Mozilla VPN
    • [Windows]:
    • [Linux64]:
      • go to the inventory and find the "OOB Ip:" URL and click on it
    • use the credentials stored in Releng private repo to connect

If you click "System Information", you can get a snapshot of the current screen image, although often the screen has blanked due to inactivity. "Remote Control" is your friend otherwise - it gives you access to the system's power control and to a remote-video Java application.

If the management interface doesn't work, file a bug for "Server Operations: RelEng" to have a look.

  • PDU:
    • OS X machines: bld-lion-r5, t-yosemite-r7
    • go to inventory and find the system.pdu value
    • append "mozilla.com" to the URL (ignore the last three letters)
    • go to "Outlet control"
    • find the three letter entry and change the dropbox value to "reboot"
    • go to the bottom and hit "apply"
