Hi there,

After performing some upgrades, I noticed that the server didn't came back online. I was abroad at that time.
Now I see via the iDRAC console that I have a ACPI error: No handler for Region[SYSI] 00000000f42c25ab [IPMI.
When I try to log in I wont accept my xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx long password.

Is there anyway to reverse the upgrades, or does somebody have an Idea why It wont accept my password?

thanks for reading already,
Guy
 
WebKVM often uses other keyboard layouts. So you are possibly typing in a correct password but this results in a wrong password because of wrong keymapping.

Also check for Capslock.

You where right again. It seems I can only login with the actual used azerty keyboard at the server not with iDRAC. Does a method exist to see what you're inputting?
