Fixed issues
Issue 1: Misleading error message in Power analysis page.
Description: When you select a group without any rack for power analysis, the error message displayed is misleading.
Root cause: The different error cases not mapped to different error codes and OMPC 4.0 cannot provide error information in detail when
there is an unsupported scenario.
Resolution: In OMPC 4.1, new error mapping code is added and OMPC can provide clear error info in this case.
Known issues
Issue 1: Inconsistent power data observed for R640 in IPMI and Redfish protocol.
Description: There are minor differences in the R640 data observed through the IPMI and Redfish protocols, as both the protocols use
different sampling intervals for power reading.
Resolution: It is recommended to use one protocol at a time for data collection to maintain consistency in data.
Limitations
Issue 1: The power graph is blank while viewing the power (or temperature) history.
Description: When viewing the power history (or temperature) of a selected group in the 15 minute/1H window, the graph is blank.
Possible cause: OpenManage Power Center has just been installed and has not collected enough data to provide a power history graph.
Resolution or workaround: It is recommended to wait as OpenManage Power Center collects appropriate data to present the graph.
Issue 2: Though I have edited and saved the IPMI key, the next time I open the saved IPMI profile, the key is once again displayed as
0000….
Description: The key might have changed, and the you may have updated the value . However, while the display should read the value as
xxxx… as the key is encrypted, the encrypted key is instead displayed as 0000….. There is no difference between the display 0000…. and
xxxx….
Resolution or workaround: N/A
Issue 3: OMPC does not provide a warning when I delete my own LDAP account..
