page. This action deactivates the following controls: "DNS DRAC
4 Name", "Use DHCP DNS Domain Name", and "DNS Domain Name."
If the "Use DHCP DNS Domain Name" control is activated, the DHCP
DNS Domain Name is used to register the DRAC 4 on DNS. Else, the
DNS entered in the "DNS Domain Name" is used.
* The DNS DRAC Name is a string of up to 63 alphanumeric ASCII
characters or dash (-). The DRAC 4 web-based interface only allows
the DNS DRAC 4 Name field in the "Network Configuration" page to be
set with values smaller than 63 characters. The DNS Domain Name is
a string of up to 254 alphanumeric ASCII characters, dot (.) or
dash (-). This name cannot begin with a dot. The DRAC 4
web-based interface only allows the DNS Domain Name field in
the "Network Configuration" page to be set with values smaller than
80 characters. (140875)

KNOWN ISSUES FOR MANAGED SERVER OPERATING SYSTEMS
######################################################################
The following sections provide additional information about known
issues with operating systems.
======================================================================
ISSUES FOR NETWARE OPERATING SYSTEM
======================================================================
* When using local racadm to configure a DRAC 4 in NetWare, if
the DRAC 4 PCI interrupt is shared with other PCI devices the
spurious interrupt count may increase. This known issue is not known
to cause any abnormal system behavior. The following message may be
seen on the console:
WARNING: 200 spurious (unclaimed) interrupt(s) detected on interrupt
24. Spurious interrupt alerts occur when an interrupt is
not claimed by any of the registered handlers for that
interrupt. (130450)
* When a remote "Reset", "Power Off", or "Power Cycle" is issued
through the DRAC 4 on NetWare, some NetWare applications may require
user interaction to close application windows. If this action is
necessary, you should use the DRAC 4 Console Redirection to manually
close the application windows to allow NetWare to shut down.
======================================================================
ISSUES FOR RED HAT ENTERPRISE LINUX OPERATING SYSTEM
======================================================================
* Servers running Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 4 will log an
informational message in /var/log/messages when the virtual CDROM
is enabled and there is no connection to a virtual media client.
No corrective action is needed. The warning message will look
like this example:
