Question Netra X1 LOM: Unable to change any variable via the "set" command

I'm posting here as it didn't seem quite right in the hardware section (as it's LOM commands). My apologies if I have that wrong though Smilie

I've finally gotten round to configuring the LOM on my Netra X1, but I can't get it to change the hostname via the "set" command:
Code:
lom>show hostname
hostname                ccacv007
lom>

Ok, that's not right, so I go to change it:
Code:
lom>set hostname kadath
Invalid command. Type 'help' for list of commands.
lom>set hostname=kadath
Usage: set variable value
lom>set hostname
Usage: set variable value
lom>set hostname "kadath"
Invalid command. Type 'help' for list of commands.
lom>set hostname="kadath"
Usage: set variable value
lom>

Same problem setting anything else (the ultimate plan is to set up the IP address for it).

The manual just says "set <variable> <value>" and all should be good...
What on earth is going on here?!?!?

And while I'm asking stuff, I'm also trying to get a second hard drive working in it.

Config spam in case the answer is buried in there:
Code:
lom>env
Fault  OFF
Alarm1 OFF
Alarm2 OFF
Alarm3 OFF

Fans:
1 fan1 OK speed 93%

PSUs:
1 OK

Temperature sensors:
1 Enclosure 40degC OK

Overheat sensors:
1 CPU OK

Circuit breakers:
1 USB0 OK
2 USB1 OK
3 SCC OK

Supply rails:
1 5V OK
2 3V3 OK
3 +12V OK
4 -12V OK
5 VDD core OK

check the docs on lom. the hostname cannot be set by the set command.
Code:
There are some variables that you can use as arguments to the set command in the
LOMlite2 shell. The set command duplicates the faulton, faultoff, alarmon,
and alarmoff commands by taking them as arguments. It also takes the argument
event_reporting, which enables you to stop the LOMlite2 device from sending
event reports to the Serial A/LOM port.

Ahhh, so it's very limited then :/ The LOM docs from oracle actually list that set syntax even!!! <sigh>

Many thanks! That'll save me a lot of head scratching!

Time I got my head round LOMLite I guess Smilie
