cirrussearch2079 iDRAC not working
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

From @Volans audit in P77792

iDRAC not working (potentially fixable)
8 hosts: analytics[1070,1072,1074],cirrussearch2079,kafka-jumbo1007,maps2009,nokiatest[2001-2002]

From that list only cirrussearch2079 is worth considering, the others being old or test.

Please have a look, maybe upgrade iDRAC.

double checking before i do something. Is this server depooled/drained? an idrac firmware upgrade does require a reboot.

ayounsi added a subscriber: bking.

I added the Data-Platform-SRE tag to the task, I think @bking was recently working on those hosts.

fwiw, idrac is currently reachable on this one. not sure what changed when.

Looks like it's still failing, an upgrade is probably still needed.

@BTullis can you depool this server for me so i can do the upgrade. It will require a reboot (or two) of the server.

@bking i rebooted the idrac on this server. It's about all i can do for the moment. is there a time we can depool this server so i can try to upgrade the idrac firmware?

@Jhancock.wm Sorry we did not respond to this one sooner. The host is downtimed and depooled, feel free to reboot whenever.

updated the idrac firmware manually. then tested a run of firmware update script to see if it would connect. It does. So the problem should be fixed. and the bios firmware is updated now as well. please confirm and then we can close. ty!

All good, thanks a lot!
