iRMC vmedia deploy failed when bare metal has multiple CD/FD drives

[Naohiro Tamura]

If PRIMERGY bare metal server has multiple CD/FD drives including both physical and virtual, iRMC vmedia deploy sometimes fails depending on bare metal's PCI device status.

The failure would happen one of the following three cases:
1. ipmitool sets bootdev boot option to wrong CD drive.
2. SCCI attaches wrong virtual CD drive
3. SCCI attaches wrong virtual FD drive.

In order to fix this problem, the following three changes are necessary:
1. use 'ipmitool raw' command to specify virtual cdrom as boot device instead of 'ipmitool chassis bootdev cdrom'
2. change the number of virtual cd drive to 1 instead of 2
3. change the number of virtual fd drive to 1 instead of 2
