Hosts lose connectivity after a platform upgrade. How do I resolve this?
Symptom
After a platform upgrade, some hosts lose connectivity with an openIPMI package version conflict error.
Cause
A third-party package installed separately on the host causes a package conflict. Installing third-party RPM packages on hosts is not recommended.
Solution
-
Run the following command on the host to remove the third-party package:
[root@localhost ~]# yum remove openIPMI -
Return to the platform UI and reconnect the host. The host resumes connectivity.
