Owner's Manual

* If you are managing a Dell/EMC AX100i (iSCSI) array, see the EMC
PowerLink website and view the information in the Knowledge Base
article emc136753 for obtaining a FLARE patch. This patch will fix
an issue with discovering the AX100i devices.
* NIC information is not displayed in the device details screen for
Dell/EMC arrays. Use Navisphere Manager to view these details.
* When using the Broadcom ASF client utility to change Administrator
or Operator permissions on your client machine, re-discover the
device in IT Assistant to apply the changes before creating any new
ASF power control tasks.
* The time displayed in the reports generated by IT Assistant and
the "Device Summary/Details" page are in the time zone
corresponding to the management station. [75603]
* If you are managing a Dell/EMC storage array, note that you need to
enter the IP address for only one of the storage processors
(that is, either SPA or SPB, and not both) in the discovery range.
The storage processors are redundant and return the same inventory
data to IT Assistant. If you enter both SPs in the discovery range,
only one SP will be displayed in the device tree.
* On Dell PowerEdge x8xx systems (IPMI 1.5 systems) discovered
through IPMI, system health will not reflect any redundancy
information. For example, if one of the redundant power supplies is
unavailable, the system health will still indicate green. [78500]
* While browsing the SNMP MIB in the "Device Details" tab, the timeout
values may have to be changed to enable retrieval of large entries
from the MIB. The timeout value that controls the MIB retrieval is
for the range applicable to the device. (SNMP configuration timeout
in step 3 of the Edit Discovery Wizard.) The request timeout values
may also need to be changed. [80132]
* IT Assistant will not work as expected if IP version 6 is enabled
on the Management Station. [79768]
* It is not recommended to provide an IP address in multiple ranges,
especially when you are using the IPMI Protocol. This could result
in duplicate devices being displayed on the device tree. [78710]
* For discovering systems running SUSE(R) Linux Enterprise Server
and using SNMP, add the following to the snmpd.conf:
------------------
com2sec mynetwork 192.168.1.0/24 public
group MyRWGroup v1 mynetwork
view all included .1 80
access MyRWGroup "" any noauth exact all all none
---------------
Ensure that you retain the trapsink and the smuxpeer lines in the
existing conf file. You can delete all other content. In the line
containing "com2sec mynetwork...," substitute the existing address
with the subnet address your management station is on. For example,
if the IT Assistant system has an IP address of 143.166.29.117,
then substitute it with 143.166.29.0. Make sure to retain "/24."
