iDRAC7 - Notes
Only if there are one or more network interface cards (NDC or LOM) present on the managed system, Network
Devices appears under
Overview
>
Hardware
in the iDRAC7 Web interface.
When using iDRAC7 Web interface in Firefox 3.6 if the SD card is removed while partition creation is in-progress,
the operation has been completed successfully
message is displayed.
If Virtual Console and Virtual Media are configured to use Java plug-in, then you must disable
Enhanced
Security Mode
in Internet Explorer. If this is not possible, then in iDRAC7, configure Virtual Console to use
ActiveX plug-in. You must enable
ActiveX control
in IE, add the iDRAC7 Web URL to the Intranet security zone,
and set the security level for this zone as Medium-Low for Virtual Console and Virtual Media to function properly.
If the instant messenger is launched in the Virtual Console viewer with ActiveX native plug-in and another
application is started (example Notepad, WordPad, and so on) without minimizing the Virtual Console, the instant
messenger box also pops-up on other applications. This does not happen with Java plug-in.
When a system is in POST, it is not possible to attach a vFlash partition as the First Boot Device.
Virtual Console Viewer from iDRAC7 Web interface terminates when the managed system is restarted.
If common logging is enabled in iDRAC7, CEM storage inventory takes more than 40 minutes. If common logging is
disabled (default setting), CEM storage inventory takes up to four minutes for the maximum configuration.
A pop-up message is not displayed to confirm if test emails are successfully sent or not.
