Resolution: On systems running the VMware ESXi operating system, the file system is ramdisk.
Modifications made to the files within the file system are generally not persistent across reboots, with the
exception of designated configuration and log files. These files are updated to the disk periodically and on
system shutdown. The changes are lost, if the system is reset without a shutdown before the updates to
the designated configuration are made and log files are updated to the disk.
The following is one example of the effect of this behavior:
On certain systems, the first time that the thresholds for a probe are changed after Server Administrator
is installed, the current threshold values for that probe are saved as the default threshold values by
writing the values to a configuration file. When "Set to Default" is performed after the first change of the
thresholds, Server Administrator sets the threshold values to the values that were saved in the
configuration file as the default. If the system running the VMware ESXi operating system is reset without
a shutdown before the changes to the configuration file are updated to the disk, the user-defined
thresholds become the default thresholds.
Issue 33: DF 315853
Description: Some Server Administrator CLI commands functions properly only when run from the elevated
console window.
Resolution: Some Server Administrator CLI commands may function properly only when they are run from
the elevated console window. Therefore, it is recommended that you use the elevated console for running
the CLI.
Issue 34:
Description: Due to some limitations, you cannot login simultaneously to multiple browser instances/tabs
using SSO login, as only one session remains active while the other sessions expire.
Issue 35: DF 489034
Description: Intel(R) TXT configuration fails due to Virtualization technology dependency.
Resolution: If the current Virtualization Technology attribute setting is "Disabled" (Virtualization
Technology is part of the Processor Settings group on the BIOS setup page); the Intel (R) TXT attribute
configuration fails on the Server Administrator user interface (System -> Main System Chassis -> BIOS ->
Setup ->System Security.) To resolve this issue, configure Virtualization technology setting to "Enabled"
and reconfigure the Intel (R) TXT attribute if it’s configurable.
Issues for Server Administrator Running on all Microsoft Windows
Operating Systems
Issue 1:
Description: Execute all Server Administrator CLI commands from a 32-bit Windows command prompt.
Acceptable ways to access the 32-bit command prompt are by clicking Start-> Programs-> Accessories->
Command Prompt or by clicking Start-> Run and then typing cmd.exe. Attempts to run the CLI commands
from the DOS command "command.com" may generate unpredictable results.
Issue 2:
Description: The DSM SA Connection Service may hang on system startup if both Oracle and VERITAS(R)
Backup Exec(TM) are installed on the system.
Resolution: To manually start the DSM SA Connection Service on a system running Windows, click Start->
Programs-> Administrative Tools-> Service, right-click DSM SA Connections Services and select Start.
