Owner's Manual

Switch is not shown in Dell reports.

* On upgrading from DMC 1.0.2 -> 1.1, if the ESXi 4.0 virtual host and
its virtual machines are discovered in separate tasks using SNMP protocol,
the virtual machines may not be associated to its virtual host.
The virtual machine will be shown under Servers organizational group.
Work-around: Discover only the ESXi 4.0 virtual host using SNMP protocol.
All the virtual machines running on this virtual host will be discovered
and associated as well.

Reports
======================================================================
* PowerConnect M6220, M6348, M8024 and 8024F may not show up in the Ethernet
switch report.
At the time of this Dell Management Console release, the shipping version of the
firmware for these switches was not providing the information needed
to display them in this report. This is being addressed in newer
firmware releases for the individual switches.

Tasks
======================================================================
* To run IPMI-related tasks against IPMI-capable devices, such as Dell
servers, you must enable the IPMI protocol to discover these devices.
The discovery task for IPMI devices should include the IP Addresses
that support the IPMI protocol. For Dell servers, these are the IP
Addresses by which the DRAC and/or BMC communicate.

* On managed systems running Windows, if you want to set the front
panel LCD text to a multi-word text that contains spaces, use the
Command Line Builder task or the BIOS Configuration task. Also,
enclose the text in quotes. For example, PowerEdge 2950.
[265432]
* On managed systems running Linux, you cannot set the front panel LCD
text to a string with embedded spaces using the Command Line Builder
or BIOS configuration tasks. PowerEdge 2950 is not a valid setting
for LCD text on Linux systems.
Managed systems running Linux have additional restrictions on custom
text: some special characters like & and ( cannot be used in the
custom text for the above tasks.
