@b4ldr Thanks for reporting this issue. Can you try with IPv4 address instead of fqdn and let us know if the issue reproducible.
Also, Please let us know how did you configure the fqdn for the idrac.

@sachin-apa if i use the IP address, i get a 401 username and password error. however testing with python and the same password works well

In [26]: s = Session()

In [27]: s.auth = ('dns0ps', password)

In [28]: s.headers.update({"Accept": "application/json"})

In [29]: s.verify = False

In [30]: r = s.get('https://199.43.132.142/redfish/v1/Managers')

@b4ldr i tried to reproduce this in our lab, but i'm not able to reproduce this.
I see http error is coming from the iDRAC not from ansible/module/url lib.. We might need a session to debug this further.

Request you to please go to Dell Support, enter your Servicetag and then raise a technical support request. You must have an existing and valid warranty on your server before you can raise a SR.

I had the same behaviour while configuring a batch of new R760xa servers with the task below:

    - name: Configure iDRAC Rac name
      dellemc.openmanage.idrac_attributes:
        idrac_ip: "{{ ipmi_host }}"
        idrac_user: "{{ ipmi_user }}"
        idrac_password: "{{ ipmi_password }}"
        ca_path: "{{ idrac_ca_path | default(omit) }}"
        validate_certs: "{{ idrac_validate_certs | default(omit) }}"
        idrac_attributes:
          NIC.1.DNSRacName: "{{ inventory_hostname }}-ipmi"
          NIC.1.DNSDomainName: "{{ idrac_dns_domain_name }}"
      delegate_to: localhost

My inventory defines ipmi_host: "{{ inventory_hostname }}-ipmi" but the hostname of the iDRAC is still the default one (idrac-SERVICE_TAG). A wokaround is to use idrac_ip: "{{ lookup('community.general.dig', ipmi_host) }}" instead.

Is it related to idrac_ip being a different hostname than the one configured in the iDRAC?

This task used to work last year when I configured another batch of nodes (XE8545).
