R640 iDRAC9 problems
I have an R640 with an iDRAC9. It has a problem in which the IP always responds, but SNMP/HTTPS are basically flapping - not available for hours, then available for a few minutes, up to 20-30 minutes.
I upgraded the BIOS to the latest (2.24) and the iDRAC firmware (7.00.00.181) and it actually made the problem worse. When I was able to finally get back into it, I cold reset the iDRAC. It came back up and was accessible for about an hour, then stopped allowing HTTPS again. I can SSH to it and get prompted for the RACADM login, but cannot authenticate while it's in this state.
Here is a picture of its avialability in our NMS. The wider one on the right is right after I cold-restarted it.
Anyone run into this before and know of a solution to it?
TIA
