How to access your dedicated server IPMI?

At Psychz Networks, every server comes with a much more advanced interface called Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI). Just like if you were sitting in that chilly data center with a serial keyboard and mouse plugged in. The IPMI will allow you remote management for bios, reboot, shutdown, os install, etc.

• Step 1: Login to your Dashboard
• Step 2: Choose a device
• Step 3: Assign IPMI
• Step 4: Initiate IPMI session
• Step 5: Access IPMI

Login to Dashboard

Click on the following link to access your device/devices using the dashboard https://www.psychz.net/dashboard

Select Devices

Now you need to choose the device that you wish to access via IPMI. You can do this by clicking on Services/Devices under the navigation bar on the left hand side of the screen. Now click on Devices

Assign IPMI

Click on the device ID that you wish to manage via IPMI. This should open the device page where you can see a lot of tools/services button. Click on IPMI to open the IPMI page.

NOTE: Only dedicated servers with IPMI will have the IPMI module enabled.

Initiate IPMI Session

Once the device page loads, you will see device information along with IPMI IP information.

NOTE: Before you click on "Start IPMI" button, you will need to decide which IP will have access to the IPMI page. By default, the system will automatically use your IP address, but you are welcome to enter another IP address. *Only one IP will be allowed to access IPMI at a time

Once you click on "Start IPMI" button, you will be see the IPMI IP address and to view the IPMI password, you will need to click on "click to view". Here you need to enter your client area password. This step is to prevent unauthorized access via IPMI. Click on "Start IPMI" button to start the session.

Important: The IPMI Session is only valid for 24 hours. Once the session starts, the countdown begins.

Access IPMI

Click on the "IPMI IP" link and this will open a link in new browser window. Once you are done, click on "End Session". (By default, the system will end session automatically after 24 hours. )
