The Dell RACADM (Remote Access Controller Admin) utility is a command-line tool that allows for remote or local management of Dell Servers using the iDRAC. RACADM commands can be run remotely from a management station or locally on the managed system.
@DELL-Young E it doesn't seem to remedy the situation:
[foo@bar ~]$ sudo /opt/dell/srvadmin/sbin/racadm racreset RAC reset operation initiated successfully. It may take a few minutes for the RAC to come online again.
[foo@bar ~]$ date Fri Nov 6 08:30:26 CST 2020
[foo@bar ~]$ date Fri Nov 6 08:48:27 CST 2020
[foo@bar ~]$ sudo /opt/dell/srvadmin/bin/omconfig chassis remoteaccess config=nic ipsource=static Error! This function has either failed or is not supported on this system.
@Dell-DylanJ that doesn't seem to have done the trick either:
[foo@bar ~]$ sudo /opt/dell/srvadmin/sbin/racadm set iDRAC.IPMILan.Enable 1
[Key=iDRAC.Embedded.1#IPMILan.1] Object value modified successfully
[foo@bar ~]$ sudo /opt/dell/srvadmin/bin/omconfig chassis remoteaccess config=nic ipsource=static Error! This function has either failed or is not supported on this system.
My next inclination would be a reinstall of either ipmi or omconfig. It looks like you reinstalled one of the IPMI packages above, so I'd be inclined to try with the OpenManage utility. I haven't seen something like this happen before, so I'm wondering if just reinstalling those tools will clear whatever might be causing the issue.
@Dell-DylanJ I tried removing all of the srvadmin packages (which omconfig is a part of) and re-installing them. That by itself did not fix the issue. However, it seems like if I do the following things in order it does fix the issue:
1. re-install iDRAC firmware
2. reboot
3. remove all srvadmin packages (sudo yum remove -y "srvadmin*")

Hello, how about upgrading "ipmitool-1.8.18-9.el7_7.x86_64 rpm"?

Hello @DELL-Young E .To what version and from what yum repository? ipmitool-1.8.18-9.el7_7.x86_64 is the latest from the CentOS 7.8 updates repository (baseurl http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/updates/x86_64/Packages/). And then follow up with what action?

I noticed in your copy/paste that Enable IPMI Over LAN changed to "No." You might see if this command helps.
racadm set iDRAC.IPMILan.Enable 1
