Troubleshooting
BIOS Update fails with 'System Services is disabled'.
When running the .BIN file, it errors out with System Services is disabled. This happens when the Lifecycle Controller is disabled.
The Lifecycle Controller can be re-enabled via iDRAC:
$ ssh admin@ipmi-address
admin@ipmi-address's password:
/admin1->
/admin1-> racadm
racadm>>
racadm>>set LifecycleController.LCAttributes.LifecycleControllerState 0
racadm set LifecycleController.LCAttributes.LifecycleControllerState 0
Object value modified successfully
racadm>>set LifecycleController.LCAttributes.LifecycleControllerState 1
racadm set LifecycleController.LCAttributes.LifecycleControllerState 1
Object value modified successfully
Once enabled (you may need to reboot?), re-run the .BIN file and reboot to apply the update.
