The following are known issues for IT Assistant version 7.2.
* If you attempt to update the BIOS from version A05 or earlier on
a PowerEdge 1500SC that has 4 GB of system memory installed, the
system stops responding on the BIOS post screen. The system must be
rebooted manually and the BIOS will not be updated. To avoid this
issue, you can either use the diskette flash method or you can
temporarily clear some space before performing the update. (148580)
* If you have a Windows firewall configured on the management station
or the managed system, the following configuration changes need to
be made to enable remote Server Administrator CLI and software
updates to work successfully.
Management Station:
1) Open TCP port 135.
2) Add the application "omremote.exe"
(located in ITAssistant\bin) to the Firewall exception list.
Managed System:
If you have Windows firewall configured, enable remote
administration by invoking the following command in the command
prompt:
"netsh firewall set service RemoteAdmin"
For additional information on connecting through the Windows
firewall, see the Platform SDK: Windows Management Instrumentation
(Connecting through Windows Firewall) on Microsoft's MSDN website.

solve this issue and to re-gain application focus, click
outside the context of the browser in which IT Assistant is
running, and then click "Back" within the IT Assistant UI.

* The preference and help pages on the IT Assistant browser will be
active only after IT Assistant is completely loaded. (145205)
* If you create a Generic Command Line Task, you cannot enter the
Server Administrator Command Line executable directly.
(for example, "omreport system summary").
To create a Server Administrator Command Line Task that runs
against the system where the IT Assistant services are installed,
select that system in the device selection tree pane, but do not
