KNOWN ISSUES
######################################################################
RAIDCFG Issues:
* If you delete a virtual disk on PERC 4I/M on Windows PE, you need
to reboot the system for the changes to take effect.
* You cannot delete a virtual disk on CERC SATA 2S when RAID 1 is
created with the "--clear" option. The virtual disk can be cleared
from the controller BIOS.
* Perform copy operations using the "XCOPY" command, because the
DOS "COPY" command may fail when copying across a network share.
The message "invalid file handle" may be displayed. This issue
is specific to R805 and R900 systems and is an intermittent
error that is usually caused by the network connection.
If the problem persists, check your network settings.
* You can assign upto 10 Global Hotspares using Raidcfg. Use
The Dell(TM) OpenManage(TM) Server Administrator Storage Management
for assigning more than 10 Global Hot spares.
* SW RAID controllers S100 and S300 will not be detected in the Microsoft
Windows Server 2003 with SP1 (32-bit).
* DTK does not support Non RAID (Volume) mode on s100/s300
controller.
* S300 controller Cachepolicy setting is "Not Applicable". Hence
VD created with different cachepolicy settings from OROM utility
will be displayed as "Not Applicable".
SYSCFG Issues:
* On Windows PE 3.0, when you run the syscfg command to list all
available options, if you press CTR + C before the command fully
executes, an error message is displayed. Click OK.
You can ignore the message.
* The Demand-based Power Management (DBPM) option does not work on
PowerEdge 1855 systems with BIOS versions earlier than A05.
* The option for "powerctl," which is "softshutdown," does not
work in Windows PE.
* The "--solbitrate" option in "solcfgparams" and the
"--mgscommbitrate" option in "serialcfgparams" accept a baud rate
of 57600, but tools such as "ipmish" and "solproxy" do not
function at that baud rate for PowerEdge systems.
* On PowerEdge 1950, 2950 and PowerVault NX 1950 systems with
