LVald — Mon, 12 Dec 2011 19:20:24 GMT

Hello,

using Integrated BMC Web Console to connect S1200BTL BMC.

Everytime I proceed Power Cycle Server choice under Console Redirection (Remote Control tab) I losing the BMC web connection.

Browser says "Connected to bmcwebsite..." but nothing is displayed. Email warning are working correctly (when some alert occurs) but BMC website isn't available until I rebooted BMC using syscfg /rbmc command.

BIOS : S1200BT.86B.01.00.0030.091320110948

ME : ME_02_00_09_032

BMC : 1.10

FRUSDR : 1.09

Whats wrong?

Regards,

Lukas

Are you using the RMM4?

I see there's some fixes in the current firmware package related to that function. If you haven't already, load the entire firmware package, then do an F9 to load BIOS defaults. That sometimes fixes a variety of weird issues.

It occures before (and after too) I bought RMM4 lite but found that have Network Settings / LAN Channel configured to Baseboard Mgmt not Intel(R) RMM.

I'll try to set it up for Intel(R) RMM and/or try to load BIOS defaults.

Got same issue for all MB from first (S1200BTL) to last S1200BTLR.

All of them (we have more than hundred) BMC stops responfing after from couple minuntes to some hours after boot.

Talking with Intel "specialists" but half of its questions about my problem is:

Could you please also provide us with the following information:

How many system used and how many of them are affected by the issue?

How many times I must answer to them to prove that we have problem!?
