24 Release Notes
The iDRAC
communication
stops when ESX
loads network
drivers.
The communication to
iDRAC stops when the
ESX NIC driver loads
under the following
conditions:
•The iDRAC NIC
interface is in shared
mode with the
on-board NIC.
• A VLAN ID is set for
the iDRAC network
interface.
However, iDRAC
responds until the
ESX/ESXi boot up
process begins the
Loading Network
Drivers phase.
The issue occurs because
the ESX NIC driver (bnx2)
cannot handle the VLAN
ID specified in the
iDRAC NIC.
NOTE: To resolve this issue,
do not use VLAN tagging for
iDRAC in shared mode;
instead, use the
asynchronous driver
available at the VMware
website. For more
information, see
kb.vmware.com/kb/1019513.
