the operation fails.

Issue 6:
Description
vFlash functionality remains enabled after firmware update without preserving configuration.
If vFlash functionality is enabled and a firmware update is performed without preserving the
configuration (Preserve Configuration is not selected), the vFlash Enabled option remains selected.
This is a known behavior.

You must manually enable or disable the vFlash functionality after the firmware update as required. To
do this, select or clear the vFlash Enabled option in the iDRAC7 Web interface, or use RACADM or
WinRM remote service commands.

devices may not exactly match the sequence in which they occurred.
Resolution
The current state or attribute of the storage device can be checked in any of the iDRAC7 interfaces
(example, iDRAC7 Web interface, RACADM and so on).
Versions/Systems Affected
All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC7 and out-of-band enabled PERC storage controllers.
