Nutanix BMC not responding to firmware upgrade - IPMI SuperMirco

We are using Nutanix 3000 (SuperMicro Server) and while upgrading the Firmware for bmc i noticed that it didn't take affect. In our case i had to ssh into the VM host and Shut it down using command line. To get bmc working , we needed to pull the host out of the chassis and then put it back in . IPMI worked fine after that and did show the upgraded firmware version. Hope this helps.

SCOM Agent Install Issue: Failure of operating system version verification.

I was trying to install SCOM  2012 R2 agent from the console on a couple of our remote DR servers, However we received the following error message every time we tried the install. "The operations manager server cannot process the install/uninstall request for computer. Failure of operating system version verification." As checked RDP  and  Ping worked fine, There was no firewall issue as it was disabled. Permissions for Agent account were correct. However when we tried to access the \\server\C$ it failed. It turned out WAN optimization  software was blocking CIFS access As soon as we made changes to allow CIFS access , SCOM agent installation worked fine. Hope this helps.
