UEFI0060 POwer Required by the system exceeds the power supplied by the Power Supply Units (PSUs)

Hi, thanks for choosing Dell and thanks for your idea. We will try to get it across to the team. Wish you a great one. ^_^

I would like to know why this hasn't been part of the catalog releases since May and what other updates MAY be missing from those existing catalogs? 

I would also like to know when that will be released in the catalogs for both OM Enterprise and OM Essentials.

Typically catalog is updated twice in a month. Below link have details on the same. Based on the release timing it will be available on immediate catalog release or one release after that. So I expect 2.81.81.81 release will be part of catalog in next release of catalog in August as 2.81.81.81 release on July 19th.

If you look at the xml file for the catalog this doesn't contain 2.80.80.80 which came out in May or the latest release 2.81.81.81.  Please go back to them and let them know this is missing from the catalog.  These have some fixes for CVE security flaws.

@DELL-Shine K yes I have confirmed the latest catalog release included idrac fw 2.81.81.81 in both Dell OM Essentials and Dell OM Enterprise - thank you for addressing that with appropriate teams within Dell.

Sorry to hijack this thread but ive just bought an r730 and got this problem (twin 750 supplies) - ive just done the firmware 2.82.82.82 and the bios to the latest version and still got the issue...it seems to be really noisy (using at home) - ive got an r720 as well which is way quieter. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers.

Comfy,

I would start with minimzing the hardware installed by taking it to its minimum to post configuration, which is removing everything but the following

• System board
• One power supply unit
 • One processor (CPU) in socket CPU1
 • One memory module (DIMM) installed in socket A1
 • Left control panel (for power button functionality)
 • One backplane card

If the server powers up without the error under this configuration then it is likely the amount of hardware your adding is drawing more power than the power supplies can provide, so a power supply upgrade may be needed. 

Let me know what you see.

Same issue with all my brand new PowerEdge R750 units.  Key specs for each device:

• iDRAC 5.10.50.00 (Build 32)
• Single 1400W PSU
• Dual Xeon Platinum 8360Y 2.4G 36C/72T
• 256GB RDIMM 3200MT/s

Ran system health check and everything passes.  Max draw is shy of 700W in the tests without any errors, so it doesn't make sense that on boot there would be anything to overdraw the PSU.

Went into iDRAC Settings > Power Configuration and read help (F1) for various settings.

Discovered the default setting as shipped by Dell is incorrect.  For a single 1400W PSU:

• Shipped Settings:
  • POWER SUPPORT OPTIONS
    • (x) Not Redundant
    • (  ) A/B Grid Redundant
  • HOT SPARE
    • (  ) Disabled
    • (x) Enabled
• Manually Modified Settings:
  • POWER SUPPORT OPTIONS
    • (  ) Not Redundant 
    • (x) A/B Grid Redundant
  • HOT SPARE
    • (x) Disabled
    • (  ) Enabled

By modifying these option, the 1400W PSU is now understood to operate independent of a potential second PSU and without a hot spare (which doesn't exist in either case).

Rebooted and no more UEFI0060 error!  Hope this helps some.  I recommend looking at those iDRAC power settings if things aren't behaving in your situation.  Good luck!

Can you check whether the error go away if we just change Hot Spare to Disabled and keeping Not Redundant
