Does the eth0 IP address (and MAC) match the one for the IPMI LAN channel?
# ifconfig eth0
# ipmitool lan print 1

Hmmm.  There is another possibility, that the new OS actually takes down the 
eth0 PHY, which is shared with the IPMI firmware.  It shouldn't, but if it 
does, that would affect this. 
 # ifconfig eth0 down
 # ethtool eth0
Would show that, I think.

Hi again

that was easy to disprove - at least "netstat -tulpen" does not show any 
service listening on any ports in the range 600..700, but I can still trigger 
the problem:

locally on the node:

root@n1670:~# date; ifconfig eth0 up
Wed Sep 28 19:38:51 CEST 2011
root@n1670:~# date; ifconfig eth0 down
Wed Sep 28 19:39:18 CEST 2011


remotely

while sleep 1; do
  echo -n $(date)": "
  ipmitool -U USER -P PASSWORD -H ipn1670 -I lan power status done
