Issue 233109
Description
In rare instances, iDRAC may lose connectivity with an internal memory component without generating
any alert or log entry. When this occurs, operations that require a soft reset such as racreset, racresetcfg,
firmware update, and factory reset may render iDRAC unresponsive until an AC power cycle is
performed.
Resolution
The iDRAC can detect the connectivity problem and log a “SYS198” message to the Lifecycle Controller
Log. In addition, the iDRAC will block most operations that would involve or invoke a soft reset. With the
exception of the blocked operations, the iDRAC should function normally, but an AC power cycle must
be scheduled as soon as possible. When in this degraded state, if a blocked operation is attempted, an
appropriate error will occur, but may be different depending on the interface.
Versions/Systems Affected
All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC8.
