Description of problem:
    After deprovisioning cluster and deleting BMH for my xr8620t, I recreated the BMH and hit an inspection failure.
  errorMessage: 'Failed to inspect hardware. Reason: unable to start inspection: HTTP
    POST https://10.x.x.x/redfish/v1/Systems/System.Embedded.1/VirtualMedia/1/Actions/VirtualMedia.InsertMedia
    returned code 500. Base.1.12.GeneralError: A general error has occurred. See ExtendedInfo
    for more information Extended information: [{''Message'': ''Virtual Media is detached
    or Virtual Media devices are already in use.'', ''MessageArgs'': [], ''MessageArgs@odata.count'':
    0, ''MessageId'': ''IDRAC.2.9.VRM0021'', ''RelatedProperties'': [], ''RelatedProperties@odata.count'':
    0, ''Resolution'': ''Change the Virtual Media Attach Mode to Attach or Auto-Attach.Stop
    existing Virtual Media sessions and retry the operation.'', ''Severity'': ''Informational''}]'
  errorType: inspection error
I've confirmed that there is no virtual media attached. Setting online=true has no effect, and manually powering on the node from idrac ends up with the node quickly being powered off again.
