Known issues
If you enumerate the enclosure view's WSMAN command on a system while one PSU-cable is removed, the
primary status of the enclosure view is reported as Healthy instead of Warning.
After iDRAC reset or firmware update, the ServerPoweredOnTime (a property in RACADM and WS-MAN) may
not be populated until the host server is restarted.
On performing warm boots, occasionally a message is displayed by BIOS indicating that there is a KCS failure
(error code UEFI0039). No action required for this error. The error is caused by the timing change in the
response of the daemons on the iDRAC. Rebooting the host restores normal boot behavior.
Upon execution of racadm swinventory or racadm hwinventory command via a local RACADM interface, the
inventory details are not fetched if all the OS drives (A-Z) are mapped. Unmap an existing OS drive to resolve
this issue.
Using local RACADM proxy, if you configure a CMC user name that consists of a space, the command does
not successfully create the user name. Use CMC RACADM, Remote RACADM, or Remote RACADM proxy
interface.
Redfish response contains a HTTP header named Allow, when the HTTP response code is 405. The list may
contain PATCH, DELETE, POST, GET, HEAD values, but all of them may not be supported.
If a requested resource is not present, HTTP response status code may not be always 404.
Scrolling-down using the mouse does not work in VNC server.
When a new PCIe SSD drive is hot plugged in an empty drive bay slot, PrepareToRemove or SecureErase
features on that drive fail unless the host is rebooted and it completes the CSIOR cycle.
Sometimes, iDRAC logs the following message to the Lifecycle Controller log:
PWR2262: "The Intel Management Engine has reported an internal system error."
Also, it logs the following message within the next few minutes:
PWR2264: "The Intel Management Engine has reported normal system operation."
No action is required. All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC8 are affected.
Server Configuration Profile (SCP) Import and Preview configuration does not give details about the values that
are modified via SCP Redfish. These configuration details are not available via Redfish interface. For
configuration details, run the command - "racadm lclog viewconfigresult -j JID_xxxxxxxxxxxx".
When you enumerate DCIM_NumericSensor using the WS-MAN interface, the SettableThreshold property
displays 0, which indicates that the LowerThresholdNonCritical field can be set. However, for performance-
statistic sensors, this is not a settable field. For these sensors, you can only set the UpperThresholdNonCritical
field, indicated by the value of 1.
Sometimes, when using WSMAN, an "Internal SSL Error" is reported and the WSMAN command fails. If this
happens, retry the command to resolve the issue.
Sometimes, SLES 12 OS installation may fail with an error "Please make sure your installation medium is
available. Retry?" Retry the installation to resolve the issue.
The command “racadm eventfilters get -c idrac.alert.all” to view all available event filter configurations using
local RACADM may fail. Use either firmware RACADM or remote RACADM to run the command.
iDRAC firmware update from GUI needs "Configure" user privilege and not the "System Control" privilege as
mentioned in the iDRAC 8/7 v2.40.40.40 User’s Guide.
