This has caused issues for me too. If you have the IPMI interface
enabled, make sure that the sharing mode for the ethernet port is
suitable for your configuration. I personally always put the LAN
interface on the shared port as that causes the fewest problems for
me. I usually set the interfaces to "share" mode with the IPMI.
Hi Vick.
I think you are on to something there. The part that really confused me
is I have two of those servers. One was working OK and the other was
failing miserably. It is quite possible the working server had the IPMI
interface on the LAN port.
The intermittent failure was enough to drive me crazy!!
thanks,
Geoff
