iDRAC virtual media issues
DTK A08: BIOS set commands fail
Check the logs for error messages
The following are solutions to problems that may occur when using iDRAC virtual
media:
1. If the iDRAC is stuck, one of these actions may assist with recovery:
In the server's Attached Media screen, disconnect the iDRAC Remote File
l
Share from the iDRAC browser.
Disconnect the iDRAC remote image:
l
racadm -r <dracIP> -u root -p <password> remoteimage –d
Where:
<dracIP> is the iDRAC IP address
n
<password> is the password for the server
n
Note
The default password is calvin.
2. Issues when booting to iDRAC virtual media may cause CPU machine check errors
at POST. When this occurs, clear the iDRAC job queue and reset the iDRAC, as
described in Troubleshoot general iDRAC failures
When running DTK A08 on 13G servers with iDRAC FW version 2.50.50.50 or higher,
the BIOS set commands may fail.
The DTK is unable to configure the BIOS settings, and the following error message
may appear:
ERROR: BOOT016: Input source argument value for the boot device is
incorrect or not found among the boot devices on the system.
To resolve the issue, configure the BIOS on the server as explained in "Set up the
BMC (iDRAC) IP address and BIOS" in this document.
