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.

accommodate the thermal profile or tier of the inserted PCIe SSD.
Resolution
Power cycle the server.
Versions/Systems Affected
All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC8 and PCIe SSDs.

mount command does not connect to the share drive.
