Failure of firmware update on 11
th
generation of
servers
A firmware update job started on 11
th
generation of PowerEdge servers may fail due to incompatible versions of iDRAC and LC
with the following error: WSMan command failed to execute on server with iDRAC IP <IP address>.
As a workaround, upgrade the iDRAC and LC to the latest versions and then start the firmware update job.
Failure of firmware update while using DRM update
source
The firmware update job may fail if you are using DRM update source with insufficient access to the share folders. If the
Windows credential profile provided while creating DRM update source is not a part of domain administrator group or the local
administrator group, the following error message is displayed: Local cache creation failure.
As a workaround, do the following:
1. After creating the repository from DRM, right-click on the folder, click Security tab, and then click Advanced.
2. Click Enable inheritance and select the Replace all child object permission entries with inheritable permission
entries from this object option, and then share the folder with Everyone with read-write permission.
Failure of scheduled job on an update group
After scheduling a job on an update group, if all the servers are moved out of the update group and there are no servers present
in the update group then, the scheduled job fails.
As a workaround, cancel the scheduled job, add the servers to another update group, and then schedule a job on the update
group.
Failure to apply Operational Template
After submitting the Deploy the Operational Template job on the selected servers, the attributes or attribute values are not
appropriate for the selected .CSV file, or the iDRAC IP or iDRAC credentials are changed due to the Template, then the job in
iDRAC is successful. However, the status of this job in OMIMSSC is shown as unsuccessful/fail due to invalid .CSV file, or the
job cannot be tracked due to the iDRAC changes on the target server.
As a workaround, ensure the selected .CSV file has all the proper attributes and attribute values, and the iDRAC IP or
credentials do not change due to the template.
