  1. I do not need to install one of the Updates on my Dell Servers they aren’ t compliant.
    Can someone confirm?

  2. Pegasus NOT fixed. Got another free error to go:

    Starting ipmi drivers: ipmi_si: Trying “kcs” at I/O port 0xca2
    ipmi_si: Trying “smic” at I/O port 0xca9
    ipmi_si: Trying “bt” at I/O port 0xca4
    ipmi_si: Unable to find any System Interface(s) FAILED

  3. scorelord.. what server manufacturer and model are you running? I have the same problem with 3 HP DL580G4’s, I’m wondering if it’s make/model specific or just a 3.5 issue.

  4. 4x HP DL385 G1’s. Alledgedly, it’s since 3.5 update 1. Place your bets on thread http://communities.vmware.com/message/932729. However, HP ManagementAgent 8.00A is nog working for me either.

  5. Hi,
    I am using vmware esx server 3.5 update 2. After installing the esx server, the boot process hangs after these two messages:

    ipmi_si: Trying “smic” at I/O port 0xca9
    ipmi_si: Trying “bt” at I/O port 0xe4

    I do not receive any other message after this. It just hangs. Do you know what these two messages mean? I am installing esx server into a sun box.

    Thanks again.
