Device is reporting an internal degraded status (BL860c)

Dear All,

I have BL860c server, running OS is linux RHL4.5.
last day I have try to update the system firmware & update is OK. But system is showing "Degraded" also system's ROM-A & ROM-B FW is not same.

Before update the Firmware

iLO MP: T.03.06
BMC: 05.32
EFI: ROM A 07.13, ROM B 07.13
System Firmware: ROM A 04.05, ROM B 04.05, Boot ROM A
PDH: 50.07
UCIO: 03.0b
PRS: 00.08 UpSeqRev: 02, DownSeqRev: 05

After update the Firmware

iLO MP: T.03.12
BMC: 05.36
EFI: ROM A 07.13, ROM B 07.15
System Firmware: ROM A 04.05, ROM B 04.21, Boot ROM B
PDH: 50.07
UCIO: 03.0b

Re: Device is reporting an internal degraded status (BL860c)

I seem to recall that if one just updates the firmware the one time, that only one of the ROMs gets updated. The idea is that if there is something wrong with that version of the firmware, you can switch back to the old version. If it updated both roms at the same time fall back would not be possible.

Hi Mark

Thanks for your reply,
iLo log has 2 critical error:
1. system firmware 0(BOOT_STOP_BOOT_OVERRIDE) "Manual override of stop boot condition"
2. Redundant w/ an E0 code; (SYSTEM_FIRMWARE_ERROR) System firmware error
Warning: System Firmware 0 (EFI_SYSID_INVALID) "The system ID (UUID) currently in the system is invalid"

Insight display say: Device error (Degraded state)

Hi Rick Jones,

I have try to back previous firmware, but I can't go back. All process I have doing through iLo.
If you think the server need to re-install the OS Please tell me. (It's Possible).

Thanks.

Re: Device is reporting an internal degraded status (BL860c)

Please do from EFI:

Shell> sysmode service
Current System Mode: ADMIN

You are now in SERVICE mode.

Shell> sysset

...

Shell> sysmode admin



Post results!

Hope this helps!

Re: Device is reporting an internal degraded status (BL860c)

It is pretty normal to have different versions in ROM A and B - don't worry.

Hope this helps!
