IDrac - Error CPLD version 103 after applying firmware and bios updates - Now all of the fans spin at High speeds
I have a PowerEdge T620 Server. I was going firmware and bios updates on it..
Somehow the Idrac (Which I didn’t use, wont Initialize and the Lifecycle Controller says it is disable. )
I cannot get them to turn on thru the Dell boot setup.
When the system boots it tries to Initialize iDrac (Even before the Dell screen comes up)… After a few minutes it fails on the IDrac
Comes up with screens like this

After hitting F1 to continue a few times the Server boots into Windows 2008 R2 but the Fans are running at high speed..
I cannot update the Bios because it says it says Bios update is not supported using RBU. I created a USB Dos boot and tried updating from there too..
I saw an article on the idrac issue from Dell saying IDrac needs to be updated to 1.30.30.21 or higher.
I just cannot figure out how to do it. When I try thru the Dell updates under Windows 2008 it fails. Is there any way to fix this?
Here are more things that happen, but I am not sure how to fix it...
Thank you

Hello
The LCC, fans, and some hardware update methods rely on the BMC/iDRAC. All of the symptoms you mentioned are caused by the iDRAC not initializing.
I suggest that you follow the steps I previously suggested in the threads you linked. If you are unable to update the iDRAC or re-flash the iDRAC firmware then you will likely need to replace the system board. The iDRAC is integrated into the system board.
Thanks
