Check if the appliance is running; if not, then restart it from the vSphere Web client. Wait for a few minutes for the virtual
appliance Web service to start, and refresh the page. If the error continues, try and ping the appliance using the IP
address or fully-qualified domain name from a command line. If the ping does not resolve, review your network settings
to make sure they are correct.
My Firmware Update Failed. What Do I Do?
Check the virtual appliance logs to see if the tasks timed out. If so, iDRAC needs to be reset by performing a cold reboot.
Once the system is up and running, check to see if the update was successful by either running an inventory or using the
Firmware tab.
My vCenter Registration Failed. What Can I Do?
vCenter registration can fail due to communication issues, therefore if you are experiencing these issues, one solution is
to use a static IP address. To use a static IP address, in the Console tab of the OpenManage Integration for VMware
vCenter, select Configure Network > Edit Devices and enter the correct gateway and FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain
Name). Enter the DNS server name under Edit DNS Config.
NOTE: Make sure that the virtual appliance can resolve the DNS server you entered.
Performance during Connection Profile Test Credentials is extremely slow or
unresponsive.
The iDRAC on a server has only one user (for example, only root ) and the user is in a disabled state, or all users are in a
disabled state. Communicating to a server in a disabled state causes delays. To fix this issue, you can either fix the
disable state of the server, or reset iDRAC on the server to re-enable the root user to default setting.
To fix a server in a disabled state:
1. Open the Chassis Management Controller console and select the disabled server.
2. To automatically open the iDRAC console, click Launch iDRAC GUI.
3. Navigate to the user list in iDRAC console, and choose one of the following:
• iDRAC 6 : Select iDRAC settings > Network/Security tab > Users tab.
• iDRAC 7 : Select iDRAC settings > Users tab.
