[cisco-voip] 7835-H2 stuck at apply BIOS and RAID Firmware???

[Erick Wellnitz]

I saw something similar a number of months back.  I tried doing a standard
maintenance window reboot and several of the servers looked like they came
back up if you looked at the box but they were unpingable.  Power cycle
with the power button did the same.

I had to physically unplug the servers from power and then plug them back
in and power up to resolve the problem.
