specific RAID devices, the XML file passed to the command will contain a
“RaidLevel” value for selection. No error checking is done on the RaidLevel
Value. Therefore, if an incorrect or invalid value is specified, incorrect
results may be returned (for example, “abcd” becomes “0”; “64.999” becomes
“64”). The RaidLevel specified must be an appropriate integer RAID
level value (“1”, “2”, “4”, “64”, “128”, “2048”, “8192”, “16384”, per
DCIM_VirtualDiskView.mof).
* At times, the Virtual Console feature of iDRAC becomes unavailable.
When this happens issue a “racadm racreset” command to reaccess the
Virtual Console.
* On few Windows operating systems, under certain conditions, the iDRAC
ivmcli.exe will fail. This is due to run-time components of Visual C++(R)
Libraries (VC++ 2008 redistributable package) required to run applications
that are not available. To resolve this, download and install Microsoft
Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86) from the following location:

* To use Virtual Media with recent Windows releases on the management station,
you should log into the management station with an Administrator's account.
If you do not, the CD/DVD redirection may not work properly and may cause
continuous USB bus resets. If this happens, set the “Attach Virtual Media”
option to “Detach” to stop the USB bus resets and allow CD/DVD redirection
to work properly when you log in again with an Administrator's account.
* To launch iDRAC Virtual Console using IE 7.0 32-bit with Java plug-in
from Windows 2003 32-bit SP2 or R2 Enterprise Management Station, do the
following:
1. Open IE 7.0 browser window.
2. Click "Tools" > "Internet Options" > "Security" tab.
3. In the "Select a zone to view or change security setting” section,
select "Trusted Sites".
5. Click “Custom level...”.
6. Under "Downloads", enable "Automatic prompting for the file downloads".
7. Click "OK" and again click "OK". The changes are applied.
* The WS-MAN CQL filtering implementation in this release is experimental,
and it is recommended not to use this feature at this time.
* The embedded NIC MAC addresses displayed under
System > Properties >System Details are the server assigned MAC
addresses. If the MAC addresses are remotely managed or chassis
assigned, the active MAC addresses can be found under
System > Properties > WWN/MAC.
* When launching the iDRAC GUI and iDRAC virtual console from the CMC
within a few seconds of each other, the iDRAC GUI may have a session
timeout. This can also happen any time the virtual console is launched
from the CMC after the iDRAC GUI has been launched from the CMC.
This is expected behavior because of browser session management.
