systemctl start obmc-host-start at 0.target fail

Thu Dec 26 13:21:38 AEDT 2019

Dear,Tim
   Thank you for guidance.
   I will study the dbus-monitor and the dependencies of obmc-host-start at 0.target.
 @CS20 CHLi30

  I need ask you another advice.

  I use the romulus recipes to build BMC firmware. And use this fw to the X86 motherboard + AST2500.
  The romulus is base on openpower. And my platform is X86 motherboard.
  Is it feasible that using romulus BMC firmware to X86 motherboard, specially the power control part?

  Would you have better suggestion?

  Looking forward to your replay.

 Best Regards
 Felixzhang

Hi Felixzhang,

About this kind of systemd target start fail, you can use dbus-monitor to check target dependency more detail.

BTW, you can also use systemctl list-dependecies obmc-host-start at 0.target to get all related services.

For example for using x86-power-control:

systemctl list-dependencies obmc-host-start at 0.target

obmc-host-start at 0.target (Power ON)

-> mapper-wait at -xyz-openbmc_project-Chassis-Control-Power0.service

-> phosphor-reset-host-reboot-attempts at 0.service

-> obmc-host-startmin at 0.target

     -> mapper-wait at -xyz-openbmc_project-Chassis-Control-Power0.service

     -> obmc-enable-host-watchdog at 0.service

     -> phosphor-watchdog at poweron.service

     -> obmc-chassis-poweron at 0.target

          -> intel-power-start at 0.service

          -> mapper-wait at -xyz-openbmc_project-Chassis-Control-Power0.service

          -> phosphor-fan-control-init at 0.service

          -> phosphor-fan-monitor-init at 0.service

          -> phosphor-fan-presence-tach at 0.service

Then you should found that might some services doesn’t start normally and cause your obmc-host-tart at 0.target start fail.

Best regards,

Tim

Dear All

   On ast2500+x86 platform, use the romulus bmc firmware, the detail information:

ID="openbmc-phosphor"
NAME="Phosphor OpenBMC (Phosphor OpenBMC Project Reference Distro)"
VERSION="2.7.0-0"
VERSION_ID="2.7.0-0-gcb91a7773-dirty"
PRETTY_NAME="Phosphor OpenBMC (Phosphor OpenBMC Project Reference Distro) 2.7.0-0"
BUILD_ID="2.7.0"
OPENBMC_TARGET_MACHINE="romulus"

  The BMC ip: 192.168.0.1

  Remote Computer ip: 192.168.0.2

  I use the ipmitool to communicate with BMC:

ipmitool -I lanplus -H 192.168.0.1 -U root -P 0penBmc power on

 And from the journalctl results, I found those infromations:

......

......

I alse do the following action:

systemctl start obmc-host-start at 0.target

And alse get the similar fail result.

I don't how to debug this isuue.Could you give me some suggestions?
