I sent an email about this a long time ago, but it looks like it was never
handled, so I decided to just send the patch I've been using.
(See attached file: ipmitool-solretryfix.patch)
I only tested this with getdeviceid timeout.
The current problem is explained at

Brian,
Looks like the BMC internal data got messed up somehow.
Try resetting all BMC data to defaults with the following commands:
Ipmitool raw 0x30 0x02 0x43 0x4c 0x52 0xaa
After a couple of seconds, reset the BMC:
Ipmitool raw 6 2
Then try doing the settings.
