What troubleshooting steps have you taken so far? If you haven't already, I would shut the server down, unplug it from power, then hold the power button for 30 seconds. This will force the iDRAC to restart. I've seen this help with lots of different iDRAC and reporting issues.

When you ran the update for the iDrac did you also update the BIOS to current with it? If not then would you confirm the iDrac and BIOS version the server is currently at?
Thank you.

Good Thanks for the collaboration.
So far we turned off the server, removing both power supply.
We also did it by pressing the button.
We wanted to update the Bios from windows but the update does not end because when it restarts to finish it cannot add to the LCC.
We also went down to the Idrac version from 2.63 to 2.50
But nothing worked

Good morning Thanks for the help
The current version of the Idrac is 2.50.50
And the bios version is 1.6
I was updating from Idrac 1.63 to 2.50.50
When you update the bios, the idrac will not start

Hi Team,
I have the same problem with my r720:
Warning ! iDRAC initialization 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.
Strike F1 to continue, F2 to run system setup program
- If I hit F2, in BIOS option, under iDRAC Setting, I have: "SWC0700: iDRAC is not ready. The configuration values cannot be accessed."
- If I hit F1, the boot sequence continue and complain again about iDRAC "SWC0700: iDRAC is not ready. The configuration values cannot be accessed."
but if I press F1, the real boot continue.
I came across
https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-au/000120131/poweredge-idrac-recovery-procedure-with-firmimg-d7
The Bios is something like 2.52 or 2.56
I am not exactly sure which iDrac version I had running.
If I have to guess, I would say something like 2.30.30.30...
I have downloaded all iDrac versions and have extracted firmimg.d7 from all of them, which are:
1.20.20
1.23.23
1.31.30
1.35.35
1.37.35
1.40.40
1.45.45
1.46.45
1.57.57
1.66.65
2.10.10.10
2.15.10.10
2.20.20.20
2.21.21.21
2.30.30.30
2.31.31.30
2.32.31.30
2.40.40.40
2.41.40.40
2.50.50.50
2.52.52.52
2.60.60.60
2.61.60.60
2.63.60.62
Which version should I use on the SD disc?
Thank you
Marco

Hi Erman,
I tried all the steps you highlighted - but again thank you for your input.
an update:
What caused this, might have been that one power supply was defect, when I tried to do a rebranding
I tried it the image from 2.63.60.62 after replacing the defect powersupply.
there was no LED flashing, that might be the reason why it did not try to boot from the SD card.
I left the server now powered down - and basically be thrown out ... :( ..
If anyone has an idea, please let me know.
Thanks
Marco
