Release Notes
Issue 4
Description: On Microsoft Windows Nano operating system, when iDRAC Service Module 2.4.0 Appx is installed; a
critical App-Model-Runtime message is seen. However, there is no change in the functionality.
Issue 5
Description: On Linux Operating system, NVMe Safe removal operation from iDRAC interfaces (GUI/racadm/wsman)
may fail on systems having other pci devices along with NVMe. This issue is observed on blade chassis.
Issue 6
Description: "Unknown: " error entries are repeatedly logged in the Syslog folder of the ESXi system. The existing
logs overwrite other important events logged previously. This is caused when the virtual switch (vSwitchiDRACvusb)
is automatically removed. The issue occasionally occurs during system shutdown or if an administrator disables the
OS to iDRAC Pass-through over USB or enables the OS to iDRAC Pass-through over LOM.
To stop the repetitive "Unknown:" error entries in the syslog without rebooting the virtual machines or the ESXi
hypervisor, perform the following steps:
1. ps | grep vmsyslogd (and note the CID number)
2. kill -15 <CID number>
3. /etc/init.d/sfcbd-watchdog restart
