Cisco UCS Blade Cannot Get IP Address for KVM

You may see “The IP address to reach the server is not set” when clicking the KVM console in Cisco UCS Manager. The issue persists even Cisco UCS Manager has enough IP addresses for management. Re-acknowledge or reset CIMC cannot fix the problem.

The fix procedure is go to “Equipment” -> Select the server -> “General” tab -> “Server Maintenance” -> “Decommission” the server.

Wait for the decommission completed, then re-acknowledge the server. IP address will be assigned to the server after the acknowledge process is completed.
