T440 boots into lifecycle controller after power loss

If I shut down or restart my server normally, the OS comes up fine. If the server loses power, when it restarts it boots into the Lifecycle Controller, which I ten have to exit manually to get the OS to boot. This server will be relocated offsite - how do I set it to boot to the OS after a power loss? I checked the Security/AC Power Settings in BIOS and the server is set to LAST, but there's nothing to tell it to boot to the OS and not the lifecycle controller.

MikeFLUSA,

 

I am researching the issue. Would you confirm if the server is current and up to date, as well as if there is anything showing in the logs?

 

Let me know.

It is up to date - new server, initial setup. Which logs should I be looking at?

The iDrac hardware log, as well as the Lifecycle Controller log. Also, if you change the AC recovery from Last to ON, do you see the same issue?

It does this regardless of Last/On. I will access the logs today - apologies for slow response, been busy preparing staff for remote work.
