Updating idrac
I have an old R720 server that i need to reuse
Before i start reuisng it i wanted to update the firmware etc
I downloaded the firmware file
iDRAC-with-Lifecycle-Controller_Firmware_WH24V_WN64_2.40.40.40_A00
Extracted it and tried to upload the firmimg.d7 using the idrac Update and rollback
However it is stuck on Uploading
I have tried resetting idrac couple of times , tried form different workstations but same results
Any suggestion

Unfortunately the server is in a Remote location with no easy physical access.
I tried racadm.exe but still not able to upload the file.
If somehow i was able to launch the virtual console , then i could try updating using the ISO you suggested , but whole trying to launch the console i keep getting "connection Failed"
