Solution

Correct the IP address and Gateway matching with the working configuration.

Login into the DB node using ssh and then connect to ILOM using ipmitool:

[root@exadb02 ~]# ipmitool sunoem cli
Connected. Use ^D to exit.
->


Once logged in, execute the following commands to set the correct values.

-> cd /SP/network
-> set pendingipaddress=192.168.50.71
-> set pendingipnetmask=255.255.255.192
-> set pendingipgateway=192.168.50.65
-> set commitpending=true

Note - the command will return an error if the gateway is not in the same subnet as the IP address being set.

Use the following command to verify the corect values reported as "ipaddress" "ipdiscovery=static" "ipgateway" "ipnetmask":

-> show /SP/network

...

-> exit
Disconnected.
[root@exadb02 ~]# 

Refer to ILOM documentation for additional methods of troubleshooting.
