KNOWN ISSUES
#####################################################################
* If you have configured the Navisphere CLI port different from
default, EMC console launch from ITA fails. You have to manually
launch the EMC console in a new web browser window, specifying
the newly configured port.
* If you attempt to update the BIOS from version A05 or earlier on
a Dell PowerEdge(TM) 1500SC that has 4 GB of system memory
installed, the system stops responding on the BIOS post screen.
BIOS will not be updated even if you manually reboot the system. To
avoid this issue, either use the diskette flash method or
temporarily remove some memory before performing the update.
