If you are facing the SUP0108 error on your Dell server, try the following fixes in order.
Wait 5-10 minutes for the iDRAC to fully initialize before turning the server back on. Best Practices to Prevent SUP0108
Select and delete any pending or "Scheduled" jobs that haven't finished.
If RACADM and Redfish methods fail, perform a hard reset of the iDRAC:
The following guide explains why this error occurs in both environments and provides step-by-step procedures to resolve it effectively.
When updating firmware, follow Dell’s versioning guidelines:
Run the following command to view all scheduled, running, or failed jobs: racadm jobqueue view Use code with caution.
docker service update --rollback <service_name>
If you’re certain no operation is running, manually clear the stale lock from the admin console ( /admin/deployments/reset or equivalent).
The underlying architecture of Dell iDRAC and the Lifecycle Controller relies on sequential processing. To protect the server's motherboard and components from catastrophic failure during a firmware write, the system creates lockfiles and sets tasks into a job queue.
The iDRAC fans may spin up loudly for a few minutes while the card reboots. Give the system 5 minutes to fully rebuild its UI environment before logging back in. Method 3: Perform a System Cold Boot and Flea Power Drain
The (e.g., R740, R760) or your iDRAC version (e.g., iDRAC9, iDRAC10).
The error message itself advises to wait for the operation to conclude. In many cases, a legitimate firmware update is genuinely in progress. As Dell’s official guidance recommends, the first step is simply to wait for the operation to conclude and then retry. However, if the operation does not complete within a reasonable timeframe (10–15 minutes), the underlying operation is likely stuck and requires intervention.
are you trying to update (e.g., BIOS, PERC, NIC)? What is your current iDRAC version ? Is this a VxRail system or a standard PowerEdge server? I can give you more specific, tailored advice.
