Good day,

I’m having an issue with my motherboard WRX80 with 3975WX im using it as my unraid server, i noticed my BMC LED is always blinking orange and i cant access it, is there anyways i can access it ?thanks in advance

I do not have exp with IPMI-enabled products other than dell servers. However:

  • Manual should say what this blinking light means
  • Sometimes one can access BMC from host OS via either manufacturer-provided tools or generic tools: ipmitool lan print should output BMC’s ip config.

Has ipmi ever worked on machine? I had Gigabyte board with Xeon cpu. The ipmi would every once in while stop working. Had to remove power to power supply to get it to work again. Seems like it would happen every 9-12 month

Got it to work now. been bouncing around with http and https on the address bar just to make it work/access the IPMI. not sure why sometimes just typing the IP address works and sometimes i have to add HTTPS before i type the IP totally no idea.
