I use vmcli.exe to load our OS and with new R630 servers we received with iDRAC 2.40.40.40, I now get the following error. Any suggestions?
Security Alert: Certificate is invalid - self signed certificate Continuing execution. Use -S option for vmcli to stop execution on certificate-related errors. Failed to acquire credentials. Terminating
The 2.40.40.40 iDRAC firmware changed the default TLS version to 1.1. Changing it back to 1.0 should allow it to work. In the idrac, under iDRAC Settings>Network>Services and try changing the setting from tls 1.1 to 1.0
I had ran into that issue a couple weeks ago with R730s with 2.40.40.40. It did resolve it on those but the error was different. On those it was "SSL Connection error" which is different than the credential error I'm getting on the R630s. I have already set my R630s to 1.0 but it didn't resolve the credential error. Any other ideas?
Thanks Josh. This is in an integration facility and the servers need to ship out to customers ASAP. I had to give up on a workaround with 2.40 last night and downgraded them to 2.30. They worked fine once I did that.
I tried again with the newer version of vmcli.exe in DRAC tools 8.5 and it's working again. I did have to change the TLS back to "1.1 or higher" though for some reason, when called from our C# application. From the command line it worked fine still at 1.0.
