Hi,
The machine was not upgraded yet. In fact, we did a FW upgrade on another
machine, and the machine is now dead, since the ipr driver is gone, and even
reverting the firmware, didn't recover the machine.
I would like to postpone the firmware upgrade until a new firmware version is
released.
I also logged in the machine today, and it seems stable, I would prefer to
start the builders again (without KVM) and see if it will continue to crash.
If it crashes again, then we proceed with the firmware upgrade, otherwise,
wait until a new firmware is released.
