The majority of components work out of the box with the exceptionsĮthernet requires you to install drivers which can be located in the driver package (see instructions below) The P5Q comes in a few different variants I have just tested the P5Q variant, not the P5Q-Deluxe or any other variant, it has also been successfully used with LinuxMCE 710 using the drivers indicated below by completing the full installation and then adding the drivers to a completed LinuxMCE installation. If you reply with more Qs, will you confirm that you are using the Remote Power Control Utility? If not, what are you using? Also, provide more info on how your AMTs are configured.P5Q works fine with Kubuntu / MythBuntu / Ubuntu 8.10 Hardy Heron. Hopefully that at least gives you a starting point.

Maybe it'll work better? One thing you also might try is to update the BIOS & firmware on one of the offending machines, just to see if it helps. It's called remotecontrol.exe and it does basically the same thing that the above util does, except it forgoes the ping. Or, you could try replacing this utility with a sample utility from the AMT SDK ( ). You could also make a dummy script that just pings and see if you can prove my theory. If you can change the script that triggers the wake-up you could add some debugging like doing your own ping.

Exactly how to proceed depends somewhat on how everything works. What that could be, I don't know, but I'd guess it only happens when you try to wake all the systems at once. Something in your environment may be causing the ping to timeout or be blocked. If the ping fails, the wake-up command is never sent. This utility first tries to ping the system before it sends AMT commands. It looks like you are using Remote Power Control Utililty from here: /docs/DOC-1767 ? If so, I have a have guess. An exceptio occured during a Ping request.Īny suggestions or help to resolve the issue would be greatly appreciated. Now trying to wake the machines again for updates and the same machines plus 2 more that did respond the last time are not responding.ĮRROR: Unable to ping the Intel AMT device. All responded the the wake command multiple times. Shutdown all machines, contacted a team member off site to wake all machines. BIOS, Windows patches and software setup is the same across the board as well as the hardware. Checked the status of updates against the machines that did respond nothing different that I have been able to find. Went to the remote site manually checked the AMT setup after confirming the machines were all avalible and functing.

About 2 months ago tried to wake the machines about half of them didn't work. For about 6 months things were working great every 6 weeks would remotely wake the machines check the status apply patches and shutdown the machines. I have setup a remote site with AMT remote wakeup.
