Release Notes
Description: When viewing the power history (or temperature) of a selected group in the 15 minute/1H
window, the graph is blank.
Possible cause: OpenManage Power Center has just been installed and has not collected enough data to
provide a power history graph.
Resolution or workaround: It is recommended to wait as OpenManage Power Center collects
appropriate data to present the graph.
Issue 2: Getting Average inlet temperature events on an empty group. There is no device in the group,
why is the event generated?
Description: The event is generated because you set the Min Warning threshold or Min critical
Threshold values, but there are no devices present in the group. The temperature is reported as 0 in an
empty group, and hence the event is generated.
Resolution or workaround: This is not a recommended practice. You should only set the temperature or
power threshold on groups that contains devices.
Issue 3: Getting event Power returns to normal, but the server is in the lost connection state.
Description: I got an alert that the average power usage exceeds the set threshold, and then I got an alert
that Power returns to normal, but when checking the server, I find that the server is in the lost
connection state. What do I do now?
The reason you had a “Power returns to normal” message is because OpenManage Power Center cannot
communicate with the server to collect power data on the power usage threshold due to the “lost
connection” issue.
Resolution or workaround: The message is misleading; however, when getting the lost connection alert,
Dell recommends that you analyze and re-establish the connection with OpenManage Power Center
first. Once the server is connected, OpenManage Power Center collects the required power data and
then reports the status or sends the appropriate event alert.
Issue 4: Though I have edited and saved the IPMI key, the next time I open the saved IPMI profile, the key
is once again displayed as 0000….
Description: The key might have changed, and the you may have updated the value . However, while the
display should read the value as xxxx… as the key is encrypted, the encrypted key is instead displayed as
0000….. There is no difference between the display 0000…. and xxxx….
Resolution or workaround: N/A
Issue 5: OMPC does not provide a warning when I delete my own LDAP account..
Description: I logged into OpenManage Power Center with my LDAP account, and then deleted the
LDAP account in the user management settings screen, but OpenManage Power Center did not provide a
warning that was deleting the account I was using to log in.
To be fixed in the subsequent release which will have a warning message to ensure that you aware that
you are deleting the current-user account.
