Release Notes

Version Affected: All
Issue 39: Unable to boot to service partition while deploying OS ISO.
Description: Hypervisor deployments are failing on Dell 11th and 12th generation servers with this error displayed on the screen
during POST: “Warning: Unable to boot to Service Partition.” There is a BIOS issue to identify the network ISO when there is
a local USB CD-ROM installed on the system and that USB CD- ROM is the only USB mass storage device plugged into the
system.
Resolution/Workaround: Remove the local USB CD-ROM (note that not all local CD-ROM would expose this issue), or plug in
additional USB floppy or USB key on the system, or attach the virtual media (virtual floppy and virtual CD) from the iDRAC.
Version Affected: 1.5.1 and later
Issue 40: A firmware update fails with an error message saying that USC is in use and it must be retried after 30 seconds.
Description: During a firmware update if the update fails with the error message “If USC is in use, wait until USC has exited
and retry the action. Otherwise retry after 30 seconds to check if network connectivity caused this error.”
Resolution/Workaround: To fix this issue, reset iDRAC and wait until iDRAC boots properly and try the firmware update again.
Version Affected: 1.5.1 and later
Issue 41: Events from different vCenter are posted to another vCenter from a shared OpenManage Integration Appliance.
Description: This situation can occur when a bare-metal server that was deployed in one vCenter is rediscovered again as
bare-metal server but then selected for a hypervisor deployed in another vCenter. This situation occurs if the host that was
already on one of the registered vCenter was added to another registered vCenter. In this case the host on first vCenter
appears as disconnected.
Resolution/Workaround: Remove the host from the first vCenter where it is now showing as disconnected.
Version Affected: All
Issue 42: The NIC selected as the management NIC during the deployment process is not set as active management NIC after
deployment.
Description: During the ESXi 5 deployment using any NIC other than NIC 0 may show up in vCenter after deployment as the
standby NIC with NIC 0 as the primary management network NIC.
Resolution/Workaround: Manually reconfigure management NICs in vCenter after deployment.
Version Affected: 1.6 and later
Issue 43: CSIOR status is displayed as “Unknown”.
Description: A server may show as non-compliant with CSIOR status “Unknown”.
Resolution/Workaround: An unknown CSIOR state indicates a non-responsive iDRAC on the host. A manual iDRAC reset on
the host fixes this issue.
Version Affected: All
Issue 44: Hypervisor installation fails.
Description: Hypervisor installation fails with the error message: “Mount network share failed – incorrect IP address or share
name.”
Resolution/Workaround: Restart the appliance.
Version Affected: 1.5 and later
Issue 45: NFS mount remains mounted after successful deployment using ESXi 5.0.
