I have a number of Dell PER740 servers running iDRAC 9 in a lab.
As they are in a lab, I only need/want/have capacity for one power supply connected to each server.
However, I cannot find a way to remove the alert/status that appear in the iDRAC (and also in OpenManage Enterprise) - like this one: iDRAC Health Issues
Such status appears when either the PSU is installed but disconnected ("input lost"), and also when the PSU is not in the server ("absent PSU").
I have disabled the power redundancy configuration, like: disabled iDRAC power redundancy
I have also disabled all Alerts in Configuration > System Settings > Alert Configuration > Alerts.
I have rebooted the iDRAC, and cleared the Event Log both in the iDRAC and using racadm clrsel
- neither makes any difference...
All of this is to no avail. I seem to be unable to get the servers to think they are single-PSU and yet healthy. Is this possible? I feel like my only option at the moment is to buy a power splitter cable...
