After a week of testing without any hiccups whatsoever, both my boards have gone into full production mode today 
That sounded quite plausible so I used BMC to update BIOS to f11. However in the update process it through an error a failed to update. The most surprising thing is that after that I am robustly getting POST. BMC still claims BIOS version f06 though. Magic… the system is fully functioning now. System inventory properly populated. All sensor data present. I can boot Linux.have you updated the bios to f11 ?
Nope I have original F06 version. However I was considering to update.
I think your 5600 non x might be newer than factory shipped bios
That's great you have a working system now, not great with errors during updateThat sounded quite plausible so I used BMC to update BIOS to f11.

Thanks a lot for the help!
I will definitely try to update it again soon. But so far everything runs fairly smooth. Still figuring out power management setting for the CPU. With defaults it kinda generates quite some heat when running long. Enabled ECO mode in BIOS plus Global C0 and can see the difference. However CPU is still most of the time running at 2200MHz and VCORE is like most of the time staying at 0.9V. Anyone suggestions on that?That's great you have a working system now, not great with errors during update
I would try to reflash f11 again now you have a posting system
Hope you get all sorted
Cheers
I haven't played with bios yet, only thing i've done so far is enable the power save scheduler under proxmoxI will definitely try to update it again soon. But so far everything runs fairly smooth.

Yeah, after i changed the cpu to a 3600 and used one 2133 MHz Ram Stick, the BMC got a DHCP-Address. Now i've got another problem, after flashing the BMC to the newest firmware, the password printed on the box does not work anymore. adminother buyers report BMC is set to DHCP on delivery.
and what will be the default login then ? if the unique pw is gone what is set now ?after flashing the BMC to the newest firmware, the password printed on the box does not work anymore. adminassword also does not work. How do i reset the BMC password to default?
Damn u are unluckyYeah, after i changed the cpu to a 3600 and used one 2133 MHz Ram Stick, the BMC got a DHCP-Address.

HOW have you flashed the BMC ???after flashing the BMC to the newest firmware, the password printed on the box does not work anymore. adminassword also does not work.
good question, even if his BMC is non-working atm, shouldn't he be able to reflash using the efi console ?HOW have you flashed the BMC ???
You can try use ipmitool (local, not remote) and create new user with admin privileges.via the bmc web interface
Edit: the BMC web interface is still there, but it says "Login failed"
thanks, i will try thisYou can try use ipmitool (local, not remote) and create new user with admin privileges.
