I bought the server in its current configuration recently - I got it cheap because iDrac was not working, I thought I might be able to fix it.
I might try to restore version 2.63.60.62 with SD card while reading serial output. Maybe it can restore the current image without needing to interrupt.
I will try very soon.
I believe this is true, they have patched the ability to bypass uboot after a certain firmware upgrade. It was spoken about earlier in this thread.
@rgrimes I have a Dell R320. To my understanding, The reason that iDrac8 is shown there is because 12G and 13G server share the same firmware (reddit - psa_read_this_before_you_upgrade_your_firmware_on).
If I remember correctly this is how it went. I got 4x R320. Then I proceeded to upgrade everything on the server using the SUU-LIN32_17.10.200.209.ISO (idrac 2.50.50.50). Worked great on 3 of the 4 servers. Then I realized that the fans was spinning faster so I downgraded to 2.30.30.30. I did this to all 3x servers. Worked fine.
Last of the 4 server had a problem - fans were at 100% and a message that it failed to load iDRAC after 10 or 15 min waiting for it. It booted into OS after that but iDrac was not available and fans remained at 100%
Next I tried to recover idrac on the 4th server with SD card using 2.30.30.30, and it worked. Then I rebooted the server while having the USB inserted and it booted into SUU and it upgraded everything. After that it returned to the previous state by fans beeing at 100% and a message that it failed to load iDRAC after 10 or 15 min waiting for it, but this time the LED in the back was not blinking like the last time. It stayed off.
After that I found this forum. Soldered headers to the motherboard, connected to serial and tried to manually flash firmimg.d7, result being in the log mentioned above. I can also boot into linux and log is as show bellow:

@codebreaker Ok, i may be confused by changes Dell has made in the newer images of iDrac7/8. I do still believe there are differences in the images as when I go digging in release notes the "supported systems" in the 2 different downloads ONLY list wither Rx20 or Rx30 series machines. I shall continue to assert that loading Rx30 firmware on a Rx20 machine well cause you much heartache.
Now as to your current state, I wonder if it can be "downgraded" back to that 2.30.30 that worked, via a sdcard downgrade. If that gets you back to working I would just
leave it there unless there is some great reason you need 2.63.
@rgrimes
I did try before and now again. I’ve inserted the SD card in, plugged in server, started the server. After half an hour nothing.
As mentioned in the official iDRAC recovery procedure (https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-dm…with-firmimg-d7), the blue LED on the back of the server should blink, which means that the bootloader is pooling for an SD card. Since I’ve mentioned before that the LED on the back of my server stays off all the time, it is safe to assume that that is the reason why the SD card recovery does not work.
So… Is there anything else I could try besides chip replacement?
Having serial console output during the attempt to flash might tell us something.
The "blinking" light is done by the firmware, so the status only applies if the firmware that does the blinking is infact working as Dell expects it to. Once you get into a crashed iDrac situation all bets are off on what the blinking light, or lack of, is indicating and only a serial console log can really tell you what is going on.
Get us a fresh set of serial logs, both with and without a recovery SD card. Be sure to start from COLD powered off state, ie, do NOT simply use the power button, you must remove AC power from the unit, push and hold the power on button for 10 seconds or so to cause it to try a startup and drain all remaing power, connect serial console, then plug the AC power in. The iDrac WELL start to boot, you do not need to turn the machine on.
hello,
i ave the same problem as 2ndbedtime with R720xd, i think the ground can be, that someone flashed idrac8 firmware 2.63.63 before i got the server, then i did automatic upgrade via idrac (from downloads.dell.com) and idrac was bricked after upgrade…
edit: it looks like, there was normal idrac7 firmware, see here:

i inserted sdcard with firmimg.d7 file, but it's ignored, just waiting..
Yaap42
TL:DR: can anyone help me regarding what appears to be a zero capacity EMMC device?
Hi all, I’ve spent the last 40 hours (with a few hours sleep) reading all of the forum posts and trying out pretty much everything from my screwed iDRAC R720.
I had a similar issue to many, running firmware 1.20.20 and attempted a firmware update from Windows which corrupted the firmware.
After the initial firmware corruption I had:
- No flashing amber light on the rear (no light at all)
- No network on iDRAC port
- No display on the front
- Fans were running at full speed
- iDRAC Settings error on boot on VGA output of: “SWC0700: iDRAC is not ready. The configuration values cannot be accessed” press F1.
- Additional error on boot on VGA output: "IDRAC initialisation error. Continuing to boot may yield unexpected power loss due to unknown power inventory and various features lost such as remote access, active power management, thermal management, inventory, LCD, or system error reporting."management engine mode: Active"
After lots of faffing around, I managed to get a fairly robust serial communication working with FTDI RS232 3.3V USB to serial adapter connected to the J_IDRAC_UART connector (as described by doomguy #msg80465
However I just can’t get things to work. After mucking around in the recovery interface and inadvertently programming the SPI to boot from SD card (“set bootcmd ‘sd_boot’”) which appears to try to create the partitions meant for the MMC on the SD card upon boot (ref #msg81378) I managed to set the SPI addressees SPI flash at 0x100000 and SPI flash at 0x110000 back to what I believe is meant to be correct (“fwu mmc emmc”) which see on line 12 of [#msg134425]rgrimes’s post.
I’ve managed to get the point now where I’m getting the “Polling for SD card state change” but it just won’t accept any firmware (firmware 1.20.20 or 2.65.65.65).
I’m led to believe my MMC memory is okay as it reports back healthy from the developer console, except the capacity is zero, but I’m not sure if this is more of an issue with the volumes that currently set up on the card:

@yaap42 What you did was a NO-OP, there are 2 copies of U-boot, and you back flashed the one in spi-nor to 1.2.26, which when it started up noted that there was a newer uboot in emmc and immediatly loaded that, and then should of proceded to flash both copies to 1.1.34. To roll back uboot you need to replace BOTH copies at the same time, or it does this.
hello,
i understand, but how to replace the second u-boot in emmc? maybe desolder the original emmc and replace it with empty one? then maybe u-boot allows to recover idrac from sdcard and firmimg.d7?
Jan
Crap, looks like i’ve screwed the iDRAC SPI u-boot. I’m getting no data out of the UART, I’m thinking I’ve mucked up the SPI contents somehow!!!
Anyone have the SPI chip dump, as flashing it may be the only option!

@yaap42 Perhaps less drastic would be to cause the EMMC to “not read correctly during early boot” IIRC there is a set of debug pads that are in parallel with the EMMC, probably taking one of the data lines through a sufficiently strong pull up or down resistor would cause a “read error” and the SPI u-boot would not find the second copy. Oh, wait a minute, aren’t both copies of u-boot in the SPI-NOR? Its been too long since I went over the layout of things. Ah, crud, https://github.com/Fohdeesha/idrac-7-8-r…r/Flash-Map.txt tells me there are 2 copies in SPI-NOR and 2 copies in EMMC, so you would need to update both in SPI-NOR and disable EMMC.
Hi all, so I’ve completely removed my emmc memory chip, after inadvertently shorting the power and ground pins during replacement with a new chip. Luckily no damage was caused.
I have an spi programmer and have reloaded the firmware after inadvertently clearing it.
My question is has anyone managed to successfully boot from tftp or SD card? I’ve read through pretty much every post in the forum on this subject, and have tried almost everything. I’m not sure exactly what I’m missing.
It does seem like a lot of people gave up and don’t come back to explain whether there solution worked in the end.
@genestealer I have been trying to figure out if anyone really has either tftp booted or SD card booted, and can anyone actually duplicate the claim. So far the answer is NO. I some stuff claiming that it can be done, but when I try to duplicate it the described procedure fails. So my conclusion is that some critical piece of data in how to get this to work is missing, and infact I also believe
that people are damaging systems trying to follow these flawed procedures. I suspect the "not coming back" syndrome is cause they did NOT get to a solution and ended up either replacing the board, or scrapping the machine.
@rgrimes Oh dear, that’s what I feared but could not substantiate. I have been reading through the (non Dell) u-boot documentation, which details an explanation of the boot arguments stored within the spi chip, their are many additional commands and variables available, that I have not read of anyone else trying. I’m particularly interested in @ldv mentioning booting iDrac from RAM (after previously loading it manually via the UART serial port, TFTP or SD card or even changing the boot arguments in the spi chip to automatically do this upon each power cycal), although u-boot appears to support this, I think the Dell firmware image, once started, will immediately look for certain flags in the emmc, which if not found will cause it to go back into the SD recovery mode.
I haven’t yet dug into the iDRAC reverse engineering that someone’s done, but it certainly looks like it’s possible to modify the Dell firmware image itself so it won’t keep looking for the emmc. See 'IPMI filesystem" and “IDRAC7 & IDRAC8 Linux Image” from https:// github.com/Fohdeesha/idrac-7-8-reverse-engineering.
@mehfk
Actually seems to have figured out where the values need to be changed in their earlier post, detailing the values within the “./squashfs-root/etc/sysapps_script” image to edit the Dell firmware to boot from SD card rather than emmc, I’m still trying to go through their details steps as there seems to be some key bits of information missing or certain level of expertise and knowledge that I don’t have yet.
By the way below I’ve added a copy of my r720 u-boot SPI variables below, which I found incredibly helpful, unfortunately it’s not my original contents as I wiped mine and had to reload it with the chip programmer with the content found elsewhere on the forum. Outputted via the printenv command.

Can anyone recommend what commands I should run before I start mucking around? What’s the best way to backup/copy the current state/config?
Checking to see if anyone is able to gvie me an idea on what maybe this is doing it seems its in a loop and continues to load over and over. I cant seem to interrupt it at all. I just get the same information

@geekonocito Your posted output does not show any repeated output so that it might be possible to identify what the cause of the loop is. Also you did not say if you had soldered the jumpers to enable "interrupt u-boot" (See other parts of this thread for details). As far as what you did show that looks like pretty normal u-boot initialization, right up to loading the env from flash, what have you done prior to this point in trouble shooting this machine, or are you just getting starting to work on it.
Sorry so currently that is all that repeats over and over after that bottom it loads the same thing nothing else outputs but i will verify to check again. Currently I did not solder the jumper to “interrupt uboot” just the post’s to be able to read the output of the device. I can try to pull more later on this evening. i thought it would output something else as i have seen others getting further but it just sticks here.
