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. Battery status changes to ‘ok’ once the Learn cycle is complete
Recommendation: Ignore the warning
• Issue 7: View slot occupancy report shows 4 HDD slots on backplanes with just
two HDD slots for any server.
• Issue 8: Physical disk clear operation is not available on PERC 8 family of
controllers.
• Issue 9: Physical disk properties such as Manufacture day, Manufacture week,
and Manufacture year are available for SAS drives only.
• Issue 10: Hot removal of enclosure is not supported in Storage Management. It
may result in unpredictable errors, such as stopping Storage Management
service.
• Issue 11: Creating many sliced span virtual disks using the spun-down drives
through the command line or GUI result may be delayed.
Workaround: After creating one sliced span virtual disk, wait for some time to create
the next sliced span virtual disk.
• Issue 12: A Security Key Identifier can contain numerals, lowercase alphabets,
uppercase alphabets, non-alphanumeric characters (except space), or a combination of
any of these.
NOTE: If you have used the special characters ”/” (forward slash) or “ ‘ ”
(single quote) in the Security Key Identifier, they are displayed as “_”
(underscore) on the Change Security Key page and Import Secured Foreign
Configurations page. This is applicable only to the Security Key Identifier and
not to the Passphrase.
• Issue 13: If Storage Management displays a path failure message for a Logical
Connector after a reboot, use the "Clear Redundant Path View", provided in the
"Change Controller Properties" controller task, and during system reboot.
NOTE: Use this command only if you have intentionally removed the multipath
connection during the reboot of the system.
• Issue 14: Patrol Read is not supported on SSD media. The Patrol Read feature
fails for any controller that has SSD media on a virtual disk.
