Owner's Manual

correctly. Upgrade to Lifecycle Controller firmware version 1.5.1.
Affected version: DLCI 2.1 with 11G Lifecycle Controller 1.5
* To perform firmware updates from ftp.dell.com for PowerVault NX300
systems ensure that 11G Lifecycle Controller version is 1.5.1 or higher.
* While applying minimum bandwidth on Qlogic Partitionable NIC cards, if the
summation of minimum bandwidth on all partitions of a port reaches more
than 100 the apply operation will fail. Ensure that you apply 0 on all
partitions as minimum bandwidth before applying any other values.
* BIOS Configuration will fail when it is done for the second time if 11G server
has either 1.9 (monolithic) or 3.4 (modular) version of iDRAC firmware. Ensure
you upgrade the iDRAC firmware level to 1.92 (monolithic) or 3.42 (modular).
* It is recommended that you delete and re import the server from Configuration
Manager before installing a Non Windows OS on the server which is already
having Windows OS installed and Configuration Manager Client configured.
* With Dell Lifecycle Controller Integration 2.1 on Microsoft System Center 2012
Configuration Manager SP1 you will be able to deploy only Windows Server 2012
and Windows Server 2008 R2/R2 SP1 due to WinPE 4.0 limitation. Please refer
Microsoft KB2853726 for more information.
* When you deploy the Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and less (x64 Boot Image only) operating systems
on 11G modular
Dell PowerEdge servers; If drivers were applied from Lifecycle Controller,
then the Broadcom BCM57095 network interface card (NIC) may not work.
As workaround, in the server where you deployed the operating system,
manually update drivers or in Task Sequence, as a fallback for option
Apply Drivers from LC use option Apply Driver Package.
