I recently bought a C6100 from MET Intl. and I was quite excited to receive it for hosting VPS on my site, anyways I digress.

When I got home and started setting it up before I sent it out to the Colo I found that one of my nodes, node 3, is showing the BCM firmware as 0.0 and if I go into server info on the servers tab all of the information is blank. Also if I try to set any of the IPMI settings the bios will lock up and the only way get it to recover is to restart the node. On one occasion of trying to set the IPMI it froze and then the Node 3 power indicator started flashing green and amber. It still boots but it does so very VERY slowly taking 3-4 times the length of the other nodes.

I am currently contacting MET but they aren't open on the weekends.

What should I do any help would be great.

Thanks,

Okay I got it back up and running after reflashing the BMC from the socflash tool. It seems to be running just fine now.
