Starting with the Chuck Berry Supplemental Package, the Provisioner GUI Application is accessed via a popup window from your browser. This enhancement provides better security by restricting pages to the application window and preventing pages from being accessed through the main browser.

Start your Firefox browser. Firefox is the only supported browser at this time.

Access the Provisioner Graphical User Interface (GUI) by typing the following URL in your browser:

http://<Provisioner PXE Server_IP_address>/tftpboot/

for example:

http://192.168.0.201/tftpboot

 

 

 

Click on "Provisioner Application GUI Access" button and you will be presented with the application Login:

 

 

The default User Name is "admin" and the default password is "admin". Learn how to change the password and add/edit/delete users.

 

 

 

The User's Guide, Provisioning and Imaging functions including the API generator can be accessed from the Provisioner GUI Application main menu:

 

 

 

The GUI Login log can be found at:

/usr/local/linmin/guiLogin.log

Notes for Provisioner versions prior to 6.5.1 with the Chuck Berry Supplemental Package

 

Prior to Provisioner 6.3, there was no browser detection: if you are running an earlier version of Provisioner, you will not be asked to acknowledge that you are using an unsupported browser. Nonetheless, for all releases, Firefox is the only supported browser.

 

On Provisioner releases through 5.5.2-5, the default password is "baremetal" and users cannot be added/edited/deleted.

 

Important: Provisioner is a Web-based application, not a Web site. Always use the Provisioner Graphical User Interface menus, buttons, icons & links, or you risk losing data or experiencing other unintended consequences.

 

Do not use browser functions such as the "Back" button or navigation features such as the address bar. "Refresh" functions may be used to reload GUI pages as needed, however you may lose unsaved data when doing so.
