using the WS-MAN interface, the new values are not updated in the iDRAC7 Web interface or when
racadm getsysinfo is run.

Issue 22:
Description
The Predicted Capacity Status attribute of the storage controller battery reported by iDRAC7 interfaces
may not be accurate in some situations.

Issue 23:
Description
When inventory changes are done to the storage sub-system (such as inserting and removing disk drives,

SNMP traps/email alerts may not be generated and the inventory changes may not be correctly reflected
in the iDRAC7 interfaces (example, iDRAC7 Web interface, RACADM and so on).
Resolution
To view the correct storage inventory data, perform a server power cycle (cold boot).
Versions/Systems Affected
All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC7 and out-of-band enabled PERC storage controllers.

Resolution:
After the previous card is replaced with a new card and the system is powered on, go to OptionROM
(CTRL-R) and enable partitioning. Save, exit, and reboot the system.
