Retrieve IPMI SEL request to host failed

slodziomus — Fri, 14 Jul 2017 10:15:11 GMT

Hi,

after opening Hardware Status in vCenter on my HP DL380 gen9 hosts I get an error "A general system error occurred: Retrieve IPMI SEL request to host failed".

I have 2 HP DL380 gen9 hosts with HPE ESXi 6.5 Custom Image and vCenter Server Appliance 6.5 - all patched.

I've tried:

Reset event log and click Update.
Reset sensors.

but it doesn't help.

I couldn't find any similar problems on google. Anyone has an idea what to do next?

Best Regards,

Tom

Hi,

I've added HPE repository to Update Manager ( http://vibsdepot.hpe.com/ ) and next I installed missing patches from HPE. Now it works OK.

Case closed
