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 Wed Sep 28 17:38:34 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:36 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:37 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:38 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:39 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:41 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:42 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:43 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:44 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:46 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:47 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:48 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:49 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:51 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:38:52 UTC 2011: Error: Unable to establish LAN session Unable to get Chassis Power Status Wed Sep 28 17:39:12 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:39:24 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:39:25 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:39:27 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:39:28 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on Wed Sep 28 17:39:29 UTC 2011: Chassis Power is on (sorry about the tie zone difference, CEST is UTC+2) ...
