| On occassion I have had problems with the operations of these machines. The computer would just halt, however the BMC / IMPI still seemed to operate. This has happened now 2 times that I can remember in the past 5 years with 3 such computer setups, so it is very infrequent. I hope the frequency does not increase!. The solution to fix was very simple. A cold reset of the BMC! This is most effectively achieved by turning off the computer power supply! | On occasion I have had problems with the operations of these machines.

This has happened now 2 times that I can remember in the past 7 years with 3 such computer setups, so it is very infrequent. I hope the frequency does not increase!. The solution to fix was very simple. A cold reset of the BMC! This is most effectively achieved by turning off the computer power supply! I had a similar problem with my first 5 port unmanaged 2.5GB/s switch, again I simply need to cold reset about once every 6 months or so. My new current 8 port unmanaged 2.5GB/s switch seems more reliable. |
