Re: OA EBIPA unknown error

 

OA EBIPA unknown error

Hi,
Helping my customer fix an EBIPA Enclosure Bay IP Addressing issue. When they enable it via OA and set a starting address and autofill OR set each manually, it let's him apply but then shows "Unknown" under Address for some of the Server Blades.

This started happening after he did the initial setup and set all the IP addresses using EBIPA, then he disabled EBIPA thinking he did not need it enabled anymore. Since then he cannot get it to work.

He tried to enable from Serial console into OA but it does not seem to help.

Here is the shell capture from OA:
(Thanks for any thoughts!)

Shawn,

I am having the exact same symptoms after disabling EBIPA. I also tried a factory reset to no avail.

Re: OA EBIPA unknown error

Hey fellas - we'll certainly help if we can. I'm not seeing this issue myself. I take it you;re both running OA 1.30 based on your mention of autofill.
Not sure what is wrong for you though, but here is what I suggest.

1) Upgrade iLO to 1.30. This is crucial. 1.30 adds tons of functionality and plugs some bugs you need fixed.

2) Make sure each iLO is set for DHCP. EBIPA cannot override iLO set for static IP.
