serial port through CMC's serial port. After this connection the user
will be able to see the server's console redirection through CMC's serial
port.
Following are the prerequisites for this feature:
1. The server should be Powered on.
2. Serial redirection has to be enabled in the servers BIOS Setup.
3. Not all keys will work so the user has to provide appropriate
escape sequences for "CTRL+ALT+DEL" etc. The initial redirection
screen displays the necessary escape sequences.(184385)
* If you setup Active Directory (AD) on the CMC using extended schema and the
built-in Administrator privilege object and then attempt to login to the CMC
User Interface using this AD account, after successful AD login, the user
name and privilege level displayed on the right hand side of the User Interface
just beneath log out link is displayed as a custom user rather than the
privilege as created on the AD side (example: Administrator, power user).

* Using the RACADM command line utility if you attempt to set the server
slot name to a name greater than 15 characters (unsupported and
documented in the CMC User's Guide) then you will get a generic error
message. (ERROR: The specified object value is not valid) (181364)
* Using the RACADM command line utility if you attempt to set the DNS
CMC Name or DNS Domain Name without the proper rules (Rules: start
with an alphabetic character (a-z, A-Z) and follow by an alphanumeric
(a-z, A-Z, 0-9) or a valid symbol (such as -)) then the utility will
display a non-specific error message (ERROR: Unable to perform requested
operation). Please enter a valid name for the above mentioned names.

* If a firmware update operation is attempted via the CMC User Interface
using an invalid image file of a very small size (few bytes) then there
will be no error message indicating the failure of this operation.
Please attempt to upload the valid image and restart the firmware
update operation. (186170)
* If the standby CMC firmware was updated at a previous time and later
made active, you will see an entry in the CMC log (raclog) that states
the firmware update was successful but with the most recent time stamp.
This is because the standby CMC cannot register its entries to the
logs until it becomes active. (186858)
