I got two Intel boxes, one 2011-3, one S1200.
The S1200 has been running 24/7, the 2011-3 box rather rarely.

Both have a RMM management module installed which seems to have died of old age, i.e. they are still visible/configurable in the Bios, but they dont reply on network any more.
Using the built in BMC (shared port) still works, but any RMM function (remote desktop) does not.

Am I the only one with this issue or is that common?

I don't have any experience with intel management modules:
Is this like the html5 kvm in newer ipmi implementations? With other words a webserver?
If yes: maybe it's using deprecated cryptography that is disabled or blocked in new browsers.

Its similar o/c, and yes still java based, but no, not this kind of not working any more.

Its not even reacting at icmp, basically dead port (even if it links up).
