Yep, working great! A little confused on the errors displayed between my two AVA and AADP systems, but they seem to work fine so I’ll just continue ignoring it lol.
Experience so far has been good, I was a little disappointed that neither of my VGA-HDMI converters, the Lantronix Spider, TinyPilot, or PiKVM worked - but this is mostly due to limitations in their programmed EDID and/or how the Pi-based MIPI CSI supports (rather doesn’t support) different resolutions/refresh rates/etc. They don’t support all of the various configurations that are sent via VGA output during boot/POST, boot loader selection, and start up. Some people blame the AST2500 chip, but I think that’s lazy and an excuse.
Getting to that OOBM interface via the browser was perfect though, that makes it work and feel just like my other enterprise servers. Honestly it’s my preferred way to interface and share, don’t want to use the dongles and Pi things if I can help it.
It’d be nice if the OOBM interface was set to DHCP out of the box though, would require fewer steps to get it working - also would be nice if there’d be better documentation on it. Some of the documentation says that the OOB Mgmt Interface is disabled, when it’s not: https://www.ipi.wiki/cdn/shop/products/AADP-connectors-2_1024x1024@2x.jpg?v=1670391197
Is there a place for us to contribute documentation? The IPI site docs say “wiki” but I can’t find any place to submit modifications.
I might start up a community wiki where people can submit documentation/tips/etc.
I got my Ampere Altra Dev Kit today and I’m wondering if anyone else has installed it in a case, because I can’t see any documentation for the “Front Panel” header which I presume has pins for power and reset.
I’ve enabled self-registration, so if you get the login page you should be able to create an account.
When I see new accounts I’ll need to manually approve them in order for you to be able to create and edit content.
