valid for new certificates and the vKVM session changes.
In DRAC 5 v1.49, the number of simultaneous sessions are
restricted to two. In DRAC 5 v1.50, it has been increased to four.
So to reflect this change, execute the racadm racresetcfg command.
* On systems running Windows 2008 Server Edition, the DUP update
method may fail intermittently due to an inherent problem in the
usb core driver. For more information, see
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/956183. The workaround is to
flash the DRAC firmware using the Web GUI update page.
* On systems running ESX/ESXi 4.1, DUP update fails Since
USB flash devices are disabled by default. To enable the same,
turn off a service "usbarbitrator". To do this, use "chkconfig
usbarbitrator off" and then reboot the system.
Reboot the system as by default usbarbitrator services
are running during system startup.

run the program only on the systems that experience this issue.
See Microsoft Knowledge Base article KB823086 for more information.
* If Virtual Flash is enabled and does not contain a valid image

image), you may not be able to install Windows 2000/2003 locally or
remotely. To fix this issue, install a valid image on Virtual
