KNOWN ISSUES
######################################################################
RAIDCFG Issues:
* You cannot delete a virtual disk on CERC SATA 2S when RAID 1 is
created. The virtual disk can be cleared from the controller BIOS.
* Due to a kernel issue, you need to reboot your PowerEdge 1855
system after creating a virtual disk on it, in order to use the
virtual disk that you created. This affects PERC 4/IM controllers.
(116779)
* 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.
* 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".
* USB keys should not be mounted to the /tmp directory. Inside the /tmp
directory, create a new directory and mount the USB to this.
SYSCFG Issues:
* In DRAC 5, the --virtualmedia and --vflash options do not work if there
is an active virtual media session. Disconnect the virtual
media using the DRAC GUI. Log into DRAC.
Click Media > Virtual Media > Disconnect.
* The syscfg --bootseq command detects CD-ROM with SAS/SATA controllers
as unk.emb.1.
* In R815, syscfg power --profile option allows to set to apc, though
apc is not supported on R815. syscfg does not throw an error 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," "softshutdown," causes your system
to reboot. If you use a customized kernel with Advanced
Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) support, this option
will work as designed.
* Using the "solcfgparams" option may produce an error message saying
