IPMIDRV 1004 errors on Windows 2008 R2 - M600 blades
Since updating firmware on all our M600 blades in order to attempt to resolve another issue (
http://www.delltechcenter.com/thread/4353610/M1000e+fans+and+the+M610x...what%27s+happening%3F), we have started to have problems with various network connections randomly dropping out - usually for about 10 minutes - before returning with no intervention. The whole time, the following error is logged in the Windows System event log:
Log Name: System
Source: IPMIDRV
Date: 09/12/2010 09:53:46
Event ID: 1004
Task Category: None
Level: Warning
Keywords: Classic
User: N/A
Computer: hostname.domain.com
Description:
The IPMI device driver attempted to communicate with the IPMI BMC device during normal operation. However the communication failed due to a timeout. You can increase the timeouts associated with the IPMI device driver.

Can anyone enlighten me as to what the problem might be?
We've had these errors on at least 5 of our 8 M600s, all on Windows 2008 R2.

Are you still engaging with support and IPS on this issue? No new updates from my PG contacts.

I am experiencing the same issue - Dell M1000e chassis, M600 blade w/v2.3.1 firmware, iDRAC v1.5.3. I get the IPMI errors (1004) every couple of days for about 2 minutes. Fortunately this has only happened after formal business hours, but it a very disconcerting because it is on our Exchange 2007 CAS and would be very obvious to users.
Have you, or Dell, found a resolution to the issue?
Thanks in advance,
Chris
