Hardware watchdog on Supermicro motherboard (CentOS7)
Long story short: I was trying to get a hardware watchdog on supermicro motherboard to work, had trouble finding a straight forward guide, so I decided to make one. yum install OpenIPMI OpenIPMI-tools watchdog configure watchdog nano /etc/watchdog.conf watchdog.config content: #ping = 172.31.14.1 #ping = 172.26.1.255 #interface = eth0 #file = /var/log/messages #change = 1407 # Uncomment to enable test. Setting one of these values to '0' disables it. # These values will hopefully never reboot your machine during normal use # (if your machine is really hung, the loadavg will go much higher than 25) #max-load-1 = 24 #max-load-5 = 18 #max-load-15 = 12 # Note that this is the number of pages! # To get the real size, check how large the pagesize is on your machine. #min-memory = 1 # With enforcing SELinux policy please use the /usr/libexec/
