12345678910
All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC8 and out-of-band enabled PERC storage controllers.
Issue 10:
Description
For storage configuration operations (example, virtual disk creation, assign hot spare, foreign
configuration operations, and so on) that are executed real-time (that is, not requiring a server reboot),
the corresponding job status may be displayed as failed even though the operation was successful.
Resolution
View the Lifecycle Controller Logs to check whether there are any relevant messages indicating the
success of the individual configuration operations. Alternatively, view the refreshed inventory of the
storage subsystem using any of the iDRAC8 interfaces and verify if the applied configuration has taken
effect. Do not combine multiple configuration operations within the same real-time job instead perform
each configuration as a separate job.
Versions/Systems Affected
All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC8 and out-of-band enabled PERC storage controllers.

Resolution
Power cycle the server.
Versions/Systems Affected
