I've had this exact type of issue, and holding the power button as mentioned below fixed the issue for me. Additionally, I'd recommend pulling the CMOS battery out if that fails.

It's pretty frustrating. The only "emergency" procedure you might try: - disconnect power cords to PSUs - press and HOLD the power button to "drain the Flea power" (i presume this is a capacitor store residuals?) Hold for 30 seconds - reconnect PSUs to power - power on and enable CAPS LOCK, SCROLL LOCK and NUM LOCK (may not be able to do immediately) This *MAY* require you get into the BIOS "Setup" menu (<F2>) (which you indicate seems unlikely) - Press <ALT><E> , <ALT><F>, <ALT><B> I can only imagine this stands for "Emergency F*ing Boot" If you are lucky, then the system will be reset. If not, you might want to give up and have the Motherboard replaced (sigh) Ref: http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/systems-management/w/wiki/3464.troubleshooting-idrac6-issues Good Luck, --stephen -- Stephen Dowdy - Systems Administrator - NCAR/RAL 303.497.2869 - [email protected] - http://www.ral.ucar.edu/~sdowdy/ _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge
