UPDATE November 16th 2017: It appears that ASRock have pushed out several BMC updates for the affected boards. Check the support page for your motherboard to see if it's available for you.
The latest Java 8 Update 131 breaks ASRock's IPMI Virtual console. Please do not update Java if you wish to continued access to your boards IMPI.
This is due to Java 8 Update 131's increased security requirements as seen by the error message seen when attempting to run it:
Affected motherboards:
Latest Java version known to work with this boards is Java 8 Update 121, which can be downloaded from: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/j...rchive-javase8-2177648.html#jre-8u121-oth-JPR
(Please note that you will need to sign-in to/create an Oracle account to download previous versions).
If your ASRock Rack board is affected, please reply and I'll update the list of affected boards.
Edit: It appears that ASRock Rack are aware of the issue and are working on a fix.
Updated: June 24th 2017 - Added additional motherboards to the list.

Thank you for reaching out to us for support! We are aware of this issue and our BMC engineering team has been hard at work trying to come up with a solution. Hopefully it would be as simply a BMC firmware update. But for the time being, would you please roll back to previously Java version?
