Release Notes

Limitation
● Do not specify user profile folders such as a desktop folder (C:\Users\administrator\Desktop) as custom
installation paths for installing iDRAC Service Module. This is because services running on the system account cannot access
such folders.
● On systems running Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2 operating system, a warning message about the Dell
Self-Signed Certificate for registering the Dell iDRAC Virtual USBNIC Device is displayed during iDRAC Service Module
installation. Click Install to proceed with the installation (BITS113354).
● When OS to iDRAC Pass-through in the USB NIC mode is enabled with USB 3.0 enabled in BIOS, iDRAC Virtual USB NIC
driver does not load automatically on Microsoft Windows 2008 R2 SP1. The Intel USB 3.0 xHCI driver on Microsoft Windows
2008 R2 SP1 Host OS is not recognizing the RNDIS configuration during enumeration. This issue is specific to USB 3.0
and Microsoft Windows 2008 R2 SP1. To resolve the issue, manually load the Microsoft RNDIS driver on the Host OS
(BITS239254).
● Lifecycle Controller logs are not seen in the new folder in the Event Viewer (169898) if you have recently changed the folder
name of the Lifecycle Controller logs in the Event Viewer, Microsoft recommends that you reboot the operating system to
be able to view the Lifecycle Controller logs under the new view name (BITS113354).
● On Dell’s 12th generation of PowerEdge servers with iDRAC firmware version 1.57.57 or earlier, Windows Management
Instrumentation (WMI) feature is not active by default. The WMI feature is automatically activated when iDRAC firmware
version 2.10.10.10 or later is installed (BITS113354).
● On Windows operating system, a feature that is enabled using the installer and disabled using any interface other than the
installer, can only be enabled using the same interface or the installer in GUI mode (BITS180635).
● If iDRAC Service Module 2.0 or later is used with an iDRAC firmware version prior to 2.10.10.10, the WMI interface may stop
responding. It is recommended to upgrade to the latest iDRAC firmware or reset the iDRAC (BITS178203).
● Feature Lifecycle Log Replication on OS Log shows one-hour difference in the EventTimeStamp displayed in OS log, when
daylight saving is applied.
● The iDRAC Access via Host OS feature is not supported on VMware ESXi Operating Systems.
● The In-band SNMP Traps feature on Linux does not support AgentX protocol.
● When Local RACADM set is disabled through iDRAC interfaces, the iDRAC Service Module will fail to configure the OS
to iDRAC Pass-through in the USB NIC mode. If OS to iDRAC Pass-through in the USB NIC mode is already configured,
Watchdog feature will not work resulting in ASR000 event.
iDRAC Service Module functionality is restored when "Local racadm set" is enabled.
