Okay Geoff, here's the scoop. This M1000e is a test chassis I use in my lab for testing blades, switches, etc. I do not have a redundant CMC, so I cannot fail over. Here is what I did:
1/ racreset on the M805 iDRAC
2/ racadm racreset on the CMC
3/ racdump still displays the blade as an M905
4/ removed the M805 blade (slots 1&9)
5/ racadm racrest on the CMC again
6/ reinserted the M805 blade (slots1&9)
7/ racdump still displays the blade as an M905
Any other ideas? Perhaps a different sequence of events? Maybe reset the CMC to default config?
Thanks,
Mike
