Release Notes

Resolution
Do not use double quotes for the VNC password.
Versions/Systems Affected
All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC8.
Issue 6:
Description
In some scenarios, typically for state change events occurring within a span of few seconds, the sequence of events
reported in the Lifecycle Log (or corresponding SNMP traps) for storage devices may not exactly match the sequence
in which they occurred.
Resolution
Check the current state or attribute of the storage device using any of the iDRAC8 interfaces (example, iDRAC8 web
interface, RACADM, and so on).
Versions/Systems Affected
All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC8 and out-of-band enabled PERC storage controllers.
Issue 7:
Description
When enclosures connected in the redundant path are re-wired (connections are switched) to result in a non-redundant
path, the reported connected port value of the enclosures may not be accurate.
Resolution
Power cycle the server.
Versions/Systems Affected
All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC8 and out-of-band enabled PERC storage controllers.
Issue 8:
Description
When a storage enclosure is disconnected or accidentally removed, the corresponding status of its components (that is,
EMM, PSU, fan, and temperature sensors) is reported as critical.
Resolution
If the storage enclosure is disconnected accidentally, reconnect it to get back to normal state. If it is intentional, perform
iDRAC8 reboot or server power cycle to remove the enclosure entries from the consoles.
Versions/Systems Affected
All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC8 and out-of-band enabled PERC storage controllers.
Issue 9:
Description
After performing storage operations on PERC through Option-ROM (CTRL-R) or before a system reset (warm boot),
the corresponding events are not recorded in Lifecycle log. SNMP traps are generated and the corresponding inventory
changes are not reflected in the iDRAC8 web interface or RACADM.
Resolution
To update the storage inventory, perform a server power cycle (cold boot).
Versions/Systems Affected
All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC8 and out-of-band enabled PERC storage controllers.
