• LC does not support OS deployment on Dell Precision Workstation R7920.
• When NPAR is enabled, the port numbers displayed on the LC Network Settings page (Settings > Network Settings) do not match
the port numbers displayed on the Device Settings page (System Setup > Advanced Hardware Conguration > Device Settings).
• Lifecycle Controller supports OS deployment on bootable devices (systems without a RAID controller) in the BIOS mode only.
• In the Spanish help page, the word encrypted is incorrectly translated as scripted in Step 3 OS deployment.
• Operating system installation might fail if the server has only PCle NVMe SSD drives and if you have selected BIOS as boot mode. If
server has both RAID and non-RAID hard disks (NVMe SSD), it displays the RAID conguration option. However, the non-RAID disks
are not displayed on RAID conguration page.
• When you update the rmware on a Broadcom NetXtreme and QLogic BCM57xx and BCM57xxx (previously known as Broadcom
NetXtreme ||) adapters, the following issue occurs: After installing the QLogic-specic rmware update package on the BCM57xx or
BCM57xxx adapter family, the rollback version is not available if the previously installed rmware was provided by a legacy shared
rmware update package. However, if the legacy shared rmware version is available as a rollback version for the Broadcom NetXtreme
adapter, then the same version will be available for the QLogic BCM57xx and BCM57xxx adapters.
The issue occurs because separate rmware update packages are provided for the Broadcom NetXtreme adapters and QLogic
BCM57xx and BCM57xxx adapters due to the acquisition of the Broadcom NetXtreme || cards by QLogic. Prior to the acquisition, a
common shared rmware update package was provided.
• The following Intel cards do not support rmware rollback and may not display all the ports on the Comparison page while updating the
rmware:
– Intel Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X710 - Quad Port
– Intel Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X710 - Dual Port
– Intel Ethernet Converged Network Adapter XL710
– Intel Ethernet 10G 4P X710/1350 rNDC
– Intel Ethernet 10G 4P X710 SFP + rNDC
– Intel Ethernet 10G 4P X710-k bNDC
– Intel Ethernet 10G 2P X710-k bNDC
– Intel Ethernet 40G 2P XL710 QSFP + rNDC
– Intel Gigabit I350-t LOM
• While installing the operating system on 12th generation PowerEdge servers by using LC UI, ensure that the virtual media is attached on
the server before BIOS boot.
• On NANO operating system, you cannot install a rmware or driver DUP if it is in .exe format.
• During the RAID Conguration, on the Step 3 of 5: Select Physical Disk page, the scroll bar of Select Physical Pool table is not
displayed. To view the scroll bar:
– Hover your mouse over the right edge of the table.
– Press Tab until the table is selected.
This issue is observed when you select the RAID level as 0, 5, 6, 10, 50, or 60.
• When virtual media is disabled and you try to launch virtual media through virtual console session using Active-X plug-in, no error
message is displayed.
• When using Internet Explorer or Google Chrome to access the HTML5 virtual console from a Windows OS, the oating menu at the top
of the window may not be displayed.
