Release Notes

For example, "-ad=1:4, 1:5" causes an error. The correct way to input multiple physical disks is "-
ad=1:4,1:5,1:6" or "-ad=1:4:0,1:5:0,1:6:0".
If you change the controller mode from SCSI to RAID mode, data loss may occur. Back up any data you
require before changing the modes.
Use the slots 0-3 of the system to create a boot VD or assigning hot spare (dedicated or global) on Dell
PERC S130 controller. If you use any other slots, the system encounters issues during wake up from
hibernation.
Known Issues
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 in to DRAC. Click Media > Virtual Media >
Disconnect.
The syscfg --bootseq command detects CD-ROM with SAS/SATA controllers as unk.emb.1.
On R815, syscfg power --profile option sets apc. Though apc is not supported on R815, syscfg does not
throw an error message.
The option for "powerctl," which is "softshutdown," does not work on Windows PE.
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 option for "powerctl," which is "softshutdown," does not work on Windows PE.
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 "--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.
The legacy attribute values enable and disable are also supported for 12G systems for backward
compatibility. In future releases, these arguments might be deprecated. Try to use the values shown in
help message for BIOS options for 12G server.
DTK 5.1.0 does not boot on Dell PowerEdge T100. PowerEdge T100 has a BIOS version that is
incompatible with the current HAPI drivers.
RAIDCFG Issues
You can assign up to 10 Global hot spares using Raidcfg. Use the Dell OpenManage Server
Administrator Storage Management for assigning more than 10 Global hot spares.
Raidcfg does not support Non RAID (Volume) mode on s100/s300/S110 controller.
S300 controller CachePolicy setting is "Not Applicable". Hence VD created with different
cachepolicy settings from OROM utility will be displayed as "Not Applicable".
On Dell PERC H310 controllers, conversion of a RAID Capable Disk to Non-RAID disk and vice
versa is not supported using raidcfg.
RACADM Issues
If you use virtual media to boot into Windows PE, executing certain RACADM commands may
cause Windows PE to crash.
After generating the rac configuration file using the "racadm getconfig -f <file_name>"
command, comment out the following properties in the configuration file before you update a
configuration using the "racadm config -f <file_name>" command:
#cfgRacTuneCtrlEConfigDisable=0
#cfgRacTuneLocalConfigDisable=0
VLAN objects (cfgNicVLanEnable, cfgNicVLanId, and cfgNicVLanPriority) displayed using the
local RACADM command "racadm getconfig -g cfgLanNetworking" or VLAN objects generated
