Redfish Service on BMC Might Experience Intermittent Unresponsiveness#

Issue#

An intermittent issue affecting several nodes where the BMC Redfish service might become unresponsive. When this happens, any attempt to query Redfish returns the following error:

"code": "Base.1.12.ServiceInUnknownState",
"message": "The operation failed because the service is in an unknown state and can no longer take incoming requests."

Workaround#

For systems that have exhibited the "code": "Base.1.12.ServiceInUnknownState" failure, follow these steps as part of updating the new BMC firmware:

Option 1: Reinitialize the Redis database using the Redfish API

  1. Perform a Redis database reset by invoking the BMC/Actions/Oem/AMIManager.RedfishDBReset action.

    curl -k -u <username>:<password> --request POST --location 'https://$BMCIP/redfish/v1/Managers/BMC/Actions/Oem/AMIManager.RedfishDBReset' --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --data '{"RedfishDBResetType":"ResetAll"}' | jq

    Example response:

    {
  "@odata.context": "/redfish/v1/$metadata#Task.Task",
  "@odata.id": "/redfish/v1/TaskService/Tasks/1",
  "@odata.type": "#Task.v1_4_2.Task",
  "Description": "Task for RedfishDBReset Task",
  "Id": "1",
  "Name": "RedfishDBReset Task",
  "TaskState": "New"
}

  2. Wait approximately 3-4 minutes for the Redfish service to recover and stabilize.

  3. Run the following curl command to reboot the BMC.

    curl -k -u <bmc-user>:<password> --request POST --location 'https://<bmc-ip-address>/redfish/v1/Managers/BMC/Actions/Manager.Reset'  --header 'Content-Type: application/json'  --data '{"ResetType":  "ForceRestart"}'

Option 2: Restore to defaults using IPMItool while preserving all configuration settings except Redfish

To preserve all configuration settings except the Redfish configuration using IPMItool:

  1. Get the current preserve configuration settings.

    $ ipmitool -H $BMCIP -I lanplus -U <username> -P <password> raw 0x32 0xBB
00 00 00 ff 77

  2. Set all preserve configuration settings except Redfish (byte 2, bit 6).

    $ ipmitool -H $BMCIP -I lanplus -U <username> -P <password> raw 0x32 0xBA 0xff 0x37

  3. Get the current preserve configuration settings.

    $ ipmitool -H $BMCIP -I lanplus -U <username> -P <password> raw 0x32 0xBB
00 ff 37 ff 77

  4. Initiate a restore to defaults, which will cause the BMC to reboot.

    $ ipmitool -H $BMCIP -I lanplus -U <username> -P <password> raw 0x32 0x66

  5. After the BMC finishes rebooting, restore all settings to their initial state.

    $ ipmitool -H $BMCIP -I lanplus -U <username> -P <password> raw 0x32 0xBA 0x00 0x00

  6. Get the current preserve configuration settings.

    $ ipmitool -H $BMCIP -I lanplus -U <username> -P <password> raw 0x32 0xBB
00 00 00 ff 77
