Release Notes

● 1 = Matches device names based on the name resolution method set in the UI.
● 2 = Matches device names based on the name resolution method set in the UI, but also uses the alternate name if it gives
a more optimal match. Setting the NAME_CORRELATION_MODE to 2 helps when you do not want a preferred name
resolution method for correlation.
Issue 40:
Description: When a Dell EMC Compellent device discovered using the management IP (virtual IP) address or master controller
IP address is rediscovered using a non-master controller IP address, the management IP (virtual IP) address will not be displayed
in the NIC Information report. [30191]
Issue 41:
Description: The Service Tag may not be populated in OpenManage Essentials for devices with certain firmware versions. The
device list may also display multiple entries for these devices if the hostname of these devices are changed. [29823]
Resolution: To ensure that the Service Tag is populated, upgrade the firmware of the managed nodes to the latest version.
Issue 42:
Description: When a Dell client device such as Dell OptiPlex, Dell Latitude, or Dell Precision with OMCI 8.x installed is
discovered using the WMI protocol, the Agents table in device details page displayed the OMCI version as N/A. [16891]
Issue 43:
Description: When a XenServer is discovered using SSH, the MAC address is not displayed in the same column for the IP
address.
Issue 44:
Description: HA Clusters can be discovered using SNMP only. The discovery task that is intended to discover HA Clusters
must have SNMP enabled and the associated credentials must be correct for the target devices.
In order for the members to be discovered, the IP address of each cluster member must be included in the list of addresses to
be discovered by the discovery task.
When discovering HA Clusters, the cluster name may replace the name of the active cluster node. To avoid this, do not include
the cluster IP address in the discovery range.
If the cluster IP address is the only IP address in the discovery task that is related to the HA Cluster, the currently active cluster
node will be discovered and its name will be the same as that of the cluster itself. This results in the cluster name appearing in
several places under the All Devices organizational view.
Another option which helps with cluster discovery is setting the name resolution to NetBIOS instead of DNS names and running
the discovery.
Issue 45:
Description: For Dell EMC PowerEdge servers discovered using out-of-band method, the system uptime displayed in
OpenManage Essentials may not match with the actual system uptime. [51626]
Issue 46:
Description: OpenManage Essentials may not display the appropriate version in the inventory for OpenManage Storage
Servcies (OMSS) version 8.0.2. [51149]
Issue 47:
Description: After replacing a server (source) with another server (target) from a compute pool, if the operating system IP
address is discovered again, drill-down of the IP address on the Discovery and Inventory page displays both the source and
target servers. [61513]
Resolution: Delete both the servers and then discover the servers again.
Issue 48:
Description: In OpenManage Essentials version 2.2, when the iDRAC and the server with the iDRAC are correlated:
● Deleting the discovery range of the iDRAC removes the iDRAC details in the NIC Information table of the server. However,
the iDRAC is not removed from the device tree.
● Deleting the discovery range of the server removes the server details in the NIC Information table of the iDRAC. However,
the server is not removed from the device tree. [61985]
Issue 49:
Description: For EqualLogic PS4210 storage arrays with EqualLogic firmware version 8.0.4, the Application Launch option is
disabled. [62421]
