Release Notes

 At times, the Virtual Console feature of iDRAC becomes unavailable. When this happens, issue a “racadm racreset”
command to re-access the Virtual Console.
 On few Windows operating systems, under certain conditions, the iDRAC ivmcli.exe fails. This is due to run-time
components of Visual C++ 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:
//microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9B2DA534-3E03-4391-8A4D-074B9F2BC1BF&displaylang=en
 To use Virtual Media with recent Windows releases on the management station, log into the management station
with an Administrator's account. Otherwise, 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".
4.
Click "Custom level".
5.
Under "Downloads", enable "Automatic prompting for the file downloads".
6.
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 Web interface and iDRAC virtual console from the CMC within a few seconds of each
other, the iDRAC Web interface may have a session timeout. This can also happen any time the virtual console is
launched from the CMC after the iDRAC Web interface is launched from the CMC. This is expected behavior
because of browser session management.
 Remotely managed MAC addresses require appropriate hardware and firmware. To fully enable remote
management of MAC addresses, CMC 3.20 (or later) must be installed.
 In iDRAC6 3.2 User Guide > Chapter 19 > Viewing and Adding Work Notes section, the note about special characters
is updated in the product. Special characters are no longer converted to '%' character as mentioned in the note.
You can now use special characters except for ‘<’ and ‘&’. If you use these characters, you may not be able to
save the work note.
 In the RACADM Command Line Reference Guide, the cfgServerBootOnce default value is actually 1 and not 0.
 In the iDRAC6 Web interface, "System" > "Logs" > "Work Notes" page, the note about the length of a new work note
actually means up to 50 characters are supported. More than 50 characters are not supported.
 When remote management is enabled, the iDRAC WWN/MAC page may not immediately show the remotely
enabled MACs and instead may show "N/A" under the remotely assigned column. This may happen the first time
the user navigates to the WWN/MAC page. If this happens, navigate to a different page in the GUI and then return
to the WWN/MAC page to see the remotely assigned MACs. Ensure the host system has booted before navigating to
the WWN/MAC page when remote management is enabled.
 The supported legal values for the RACADM cfgRacTuneConRedirPort object are 1025 - 65535. The RACADM
Command Line Reference Guide for iDRAC6 1.7, iDRAC6 3.2, and CMC 3.2 includes port 1024 for this object but
this is not supported in the 3.21 release.
