The BMC may become unresponsive intermittently when reconnecting
power or performing power cycling; status LED will be solid amber
Problem When performing a power cycle or reconnecting system power, the system
may become unresponsive (no response by pressing the power button), the
status LED turning amber with a non-recover state due to a Power Fault. The
BWC\EWS virtual front panel also shows the power light as green, while the
system is powered off, and the power LED on the server is not illuminated. In
the BWC\EWS reports "there has been a soft power control failure" with a
Critical warning and SEL entry is generated.
Implication The shared NIC PHY is reset when the system powers on and boots. This is
expected behavior of the NIC PHY. Current BMC has no method to avoid this
reset.
Status This issue may be fixed in future BMC release.
Workaround None.

fixed by disabling this BIOS option.
