This sort of issue is a relatively regular occurrence in the server fleet I and my team deal with. A handful of servers a month (out of thousands) end up misbehaving - a system won’t respond to a power up command from the BMC, a PCI-E device doesn’t appear properly after boot up etc etc Standard troubleshooting before getting the vendor involved or replacing parts is to action a power drain. BMCs with high uptime can be especially prone to this, often forgetting how to talk to the system they’re attached to.
