If the modified value is not a discrete integer, it may change when saved. • Fan redundancy can have the following states: Fully Redundant - The sensors display this status if all the fans in the system are present and are in a non-failure state. Redundancy Lost - The sensors display this status whenever any system fan fails or is removed from the chassis.
Issue 1: DF416987 E-Clarity: The space between two RAID 10 layout span disk in the Advance wizard is more Issue 2: DF419932 E-Clarity: Improper alignment for "Date" text boxes in asset info page FF3.x Issue3: DF419976 E-Clarity: An extra line is displayed in the Destinations Table-Platform Events Page Issue 4: DF421616 E-Clarity: Page Expired error occurs when the Go Back button is clicked - Inband failure page Issue 5: DF421990 E-clarity: |Om6.
* Issue 5: While entering the Server Administrator command line "omreport system version -outc ", ensure that you specify an absolute path name for the output file, for example, "c:\out.txt" else, the output file is empty. * Issue 6: Entering the "omreport system esmlog/alertlog/cmdlog -fmt tbl" command on the CLI can result in XML parsing errors if the size of the log is very large. Use the GUI or the "omreport system esmlog/alertlog/cmdlog" CLI command to view the contents of the log.
4. Type: omconfig system webserver action=start * Issue 13: A temperature drop below a minimum failure threshold does not cause a system reset even if this alert action is set. * Issue 14: Clicking the "Back" and "Refresh" buttons on the browser may not display the correct page with respect to the Server Administrator component tree, tabs, tab menus, or help, as Server Administrator has been designed with limited functionality to reduce overhead.
failure threshold. * Issue 22: If you close the browser using the "Close" button on the browser or log off from the operating system, the Server Administrator session is not terminated. This session is listed in the Session Management page until the session time out occurs, or DSM SA connection service is restarted, or the operating system is rebooted.
On certain systems that do not support power monitoring, Server Administrator reports the two platform event filters related to power monitoring as "System Power Probe Warning" and "System Power Probe Failure". These two filters are not supported on these systems. That is, you can view and configure these filters, but no action is taken. * Issue 28: DF185770: Primary User Telephone Number does not accept symbols.
* Issue 35: DF552204: On Mozilla Firefox browsers (versions 10, 11 and 12), Server Administrator fails to launch if IPv6 address used. This is a known issue.

Known Limitations and Workarounds For Storage Management Service • Issue 1: Fluid Cache Details are not automatically enumerated on SUSE Linux 11 SP2 x86_64 Operating System after system reboot.
Description: “Battery Status reported by Storage Management is inconsistent with the one reported by iDRAC7 interfaces (for example: iDRAC7 Web interface, RACADM and so on) for PERC 8 controllers when a Learn Cycle is in progress. Storage Management reports the Battery status as Warning while iDRAC7 interfaces report the Battery status as ‘ok’.” Workaround: Warning status is transient and does not warrant any action by the user.
• Issue 15: Hot plug of enclosures takes time to enumerate the enclosure and its components. During this time, there will be a delay in the response time of tasks, such as displaying the physical disks on the physical disk page and in the virtual disk selection page. • Issue 16: Storage Management does not permit connecting the first enclosure in single path and attaching the subsequent enclosures in multipath. All enclosures must be connected in multipath to enable the multipath view.
with the Service and Diagnostics utility. Description: Storage Management may not recognize devices that are installed after Storage Management is already running. Solution: If Storage Management does not recognize a newly-added device and this problem has not been corrected with a Global Rescan, then reboot the system. • Issue 20: DF120475: Storage Management SNMP traps are not filtered by Server Administrator.
