Release Notes

However, if an AC power cycle (cold boot) is performed, the OEMDRV drive is automatically deleted.
 CPLD firmware update has no impact on Trusted Platform Module enablement.
 On the basis of virtual storage device type attached through iDRAC, that is, USB drive or CD/.ISO file,
Lifecycle Controller will display Virtual Floppy or Virtual CD respectively.
 If Test Network Connection fails for a valid address, try configuring the network settings again. If the issue
persists, restart the system and retry the operation.
 When you reset or update iDRAC, you must reboot Lifecycle Controller if it is launched already. If you fail
to reboot, Lifecycle Controller displays an unexpected behavior.
 On PowerEdge FC630, PowerEdge FC830, and PowerEdge FC430 systems, part replacement is not supported
if a single PERC (FD332) is replaced with a dual PERC (FD332) or vice versa.
 After performing firmware update or rollback operations using Lifecycle Controller the host is rebooted by
default, reboot the host server again to display the updated firmware versions in the Hardware Configuration
wizard.
 To record updates in the Lifecycle Log, ensure that Lifecycle Controller and iDRAC are from the same
release. If Lifecycle Controller and iDRAC are not from the same release, the Lifecycle Log displays either
blank messages or messages with a “~” character.
 When you update the Backplane Expander Firmware on PowerEdge R920 to version 0.33 or 2.03, the
comparison page displays only one expander entry. However, the update process happens on both the
expanders.
 Fibre channel NIC cards with dual or four ports are displayed as a single port card in Lifecycle Controller.
However, all ports are updated when a firmware update is performed.
 The option to enable or disable the disk cache policy for SWRAID controllers are supported only on
SWRAID controller driver version 4.1.0-0025 or later.

Issue 2:
Description
While deploying Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 from OS Deployment of Lifecycle Controller, installation stops with
the following error:
There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Device\Harddisk0\DR0.
This issue may occur due to any of the following reasons:
 Virtual Media is in the attached state and a media is not mapped.
 Virtual Media is in the auto-attached state and a media is not mapped.
 Virtual Media being presented by the AVCT SIP and Virtual Media from iDRAC8 in the detached state.
 Due to failure to load drivers for RAID controllers on the system.
Note: It does not occur with Virtual Media in the detached state. It also does not occur without the SIP and with Virtual
Media in the detached from iDRAC8.
