172915 iSM communication
with iDRAC is
interrupted.
In VMware ESXi 7.x, iDRAC Service
Module (iSM) communication with iDRAC
is dropped.
No action is required as
the communication is restored
automatically within 1–2 minutes.
176426 Communication is
not restarting after
performing Restart
Management Agents.
iDRAC Service Module is not restarting
the communication with iDRAC after
performing Restart Management Agents
on VMWare ESXi 7.x.
You must try performing
Restart Management Agents again
immediately after the first attempt.
Not available. IPMI driver becomes
unresponsive on
VMware ESXi.
After performing an iDRAC hard reset
operation on certain VMware ESXi, the
ipmi_si_drv IPMI driver on ESXi 6.x and
ipmi IPMI drive on ESXi 6.x/7.x do not
respond because of an existing issue in
the IPMI driver. If the IPMI driver becomes
unresponsive, reload the ipmi_si_drv IPMI
driver on ESXi 6.x and ipmi IPMI drive on
ESXi 6.x/7.x.
The issue is observed in
iDRAC Service Module 2.3 and
later supported ESXi versions.
To reload the IPMI driver,
run the following commands:
esxcli system wbem set
-e 0 esxcfg-module -u
ipmi_si_drv/ipmi => unload
ipmi_si_drv/ipmi esxcfg-
module ipmi_si_drv/ipmi
=> load ipmi_si_drv/ipmi
esxcfg-module ipmi_si_drv/
ipmi => load ipmi_si_drv/
ipmi esxcli system wbem
set -e 1
