Resolution

clear the
vFlash Enabled
option in the iDRAC7 Web interface, or use RACADM or WinRM remote service commands.
Versions/Systems Affected
All iDRAC7 supported Dell PowerEdge(TM) systems.
Issue 7
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/email alerts) for storage devices may not exactly match the
sequence in which they occurred.
Resolution
The current state or attribute of the storage device can be checked in any of the iDRAC7 interfaces (example, iDRAC7 Web
interface, RACADM and so on).
Versions/Systems Affected
All Dell PowerEdge(TM) systems with iDRAC7 and out-of-band enabled PERC storage controllers.
Issue 8
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 iDRAC7 and out-of-band enabled PERC storage controllers.
Issue 9
Description
When a storage enclosure is disconnected or accidentally removed, the corresponding status of its components (that is, EMM,
PSU, fan, and temperature sensors) are reported as critical.
Resolution
If the storage enclosure is disconnected accidentally, reconnect it to get back to normal state. If it is intentional, perform
DRAC7 reboot or server power cycle to remove the enclosure entries from the consoles.
Versions/Systems Affected
All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC7 and out-of-band enabled PERC storage controllers.
