upgrading, delete the Dell S5000 Fabric Device Template in the Reports Template
and delete that report in the reports portlet.
Restoring configurations with the startup/reboot option works on N Series
devices running 6.x firmware, but the audit trail may not indicate the correct
status. This occurs because OMNM does not receive anything from the device to
close out the job. Some models do not send a message like
Shutting down..
that
indicates success.(23976, 23785)
FTOS Devices do not support the Q-BRIDGE-MIB, and therefore discovery does
not find VLANs connected to these devices. (1893)
You must delete and rediscover Dell Networking FTOS MXL and Dell Networking
FTOS IO Aggregator devices after upgrade from any previous version of this
software. This requirement originates from a device type change. In previous
versions, these devices were switches, but now they are converged ethernet
switches. (23970)
The Adaptive CLI set MSTP global settings does not execute all the commands on
7xxx & M8024K models 5.1 firmware. (21314)
IPv6 ping and telnet is not supported. (23056)
Backing up Dell Powerconnect W-Series iAP devices is not supported. (18560)
MIB browser cannot read some Dell Networking FTOS MIB tables. (23318, 19461)
During peak traffic times, deploying firmware to Dell Networking FTOS S-Series
may fail with the following error messages:
sent command ‘upgrade system stack-unit all A:’
matched pattern ‘% Error:.*’
on line ‘% Error: Invalid inut at “^” marker
Workaround: If this occurs, retry deploying later, when traffic to/from the device
is not high. (23320)
For PowerConnect devices running 5.x or 3.x firmware, restoring startup config
may incorrectly display a timeout error, even if the restore succeeded.
The reason for this is that Dell OpenManage Network Manager does not get
anything from the device to close out the job. Some models do not send a
message like
Shutting down..
that indicates success.(22411)
Executing an Adaptive CLI reload may produce a false failure error message. This
occurs because OMNM loses connection and the device does not respond. Device
reload is sometimes successful in these circumstances, but must be manually
verified. (22453)
Dell Networking FTOS device discovery fails when its login banner is configured
as Keyboard-interactive in the DUT. This makes manual interaction with the device
necessary, so automated discovery fails. (22768)
Follow the instructions and minimum requirements documented in the S4810
FTOS version E9.1.0.0 release notes before using OMNM to deploy FTOS version
E9.1.0.0 or greater to S4810 devices. S4810 units must not run FTOS version
E8.3.12.1 when initiating OMNM discovery or re-sync. If an S4810 unit is
running FTOS version E8.3.12.1, then upgrade the device to FTOS version
E8.3.12.2 before starting OMNM discovery. (21424)
PowerConnect 5500 and PowerEdge 1GB VRTX switches do not display memory
utilization because the device provides no CLI and SNMP implementation to
fetch these values. (21995, 21351)
