Login attempt alert for root from using REDFISH
We are getting the following warning daily from a bunch of DELL Poweredge servers.
Login attempt alert for root from using REDFISH, IP will be blocked for 600 seconds
Devices are configured for discovery using WS-MAN.
iDRAC Lifecycle log shows the following warnings.
2019-08-14T23:47:57 USR0031 Unable to log in for root from using WS-MAN
2019-08-14T23:48:00 USR0031 Unable to log in for root from using REDFISH
2019-08-14T23:48:01 USR0034 Login attempt alert for root from using REDFISH, IP will be blocked for 600 seconds
2019-08-15T00:02:40 USR0030 Successfully logged in using root, from and WS-MAN
We are running OME Essentials v2.5 on Windows Server 2012.
Any ideas on why we are getting this warning?
Thanks.

If I were to hazard a guess, it looks like something is misconfigured, like an IP is included in your IP range that either isn't configured, or isn't supposed to be monitored. One thing you may want to do is set up so that only 1 protocol is being used, WS-MAN or Redfish.
Do all of the target servers have OMSA installed on them?

Thanks for the reply.
Servers are running ESXi so they are managed using WS-MAN (out-of-band).
I can't see any configuration options to use REDFISH in OME (only WS-MAN out-of-band option is selected).

We are seeing this now too. It's just one server, but every night at the same time we get this error. It's in the same discovery pool as a dozen other servers, not sure what could be different, or why it only happens on that server at that time. Looking at the logs OME has been able to log in without issue on every other attempt.

As it turned out warnings were caused by incorrectly configured credentials in Configuration Inventory Schedule.
Manage > Configuration > Configuration Inventory Schedule
Hope that helps.

That was it, inventory schedule had the wrong credentials. Strange, I don't remember setting it up!
Thanks!

Hello,
I have the same issue but I presume that Manage > Configuration > Configuration Inventory Schedule is from old OME version. Now we have 3.9 and I can't see anyway to change credentials for Inventory Schedule. Once I do onboarding that's the only place where I put credentials. Is there any other place where put credentials? Or is there any other solution to this case?
