Storage Management Service Issues for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Operating Systems
Issue 1:
Description: If a physical disk in a RAID 1-concatenated virtual disk fails, the virtual disk is in a "Degraded"
state. The Check Consistency operation should not be performed on a virtual disk while it is in a degraded
state. However, the task drop-down menu for a degraded RAID 1-concatenated virtual disk may display
the "Check Consistency" option. Do not perform a consistency check until appropriate actions are
performed to restore the virtual disk. Dell is working for this issue is being worked out.

Issues for Remote Access
Note: The Remote Access Service is supported on yx1x systems only.
The following subsections list the currently known issues regarding implementation and operation of your
RAC and the Remote Access Service in Server Administrator.
Issues for all Operating Systems
Issue 1:
Description: The Server Administrator user interface and commands related to "local authentication
enable" are not applicable for RAC firmware 3.20. The Active Directory authentication feature replaces
the "local operating system authentication" feature in this version of firmware. Due to this change, the
following commands will return errors:
"racadm localauthenable"
"omconfig rac authentication"
Issue 2:
Description: Due to fluctuations in the watchdog timer, the "Last Crash Screen" may not be captured when
the Automatic System Recovery is set to a value of less than 30 seconds. To ensure correct functioning of
the "Last Crash Screen" feature, set the System Reset Timer to at least 30 seconds.
Issue 3: DF 132894
Description: The cfgDNSServer1 and cfgDNSServer2 properties of group cfgLanNetworking may be set to
identical values while swapping addresses. Some performance may be lost temporarily during the
swapping. The cfgLanNetworking group is configured using the "racadm config" command.
Issue 4:
Description: The remote access controller uses FTP protocol to perform some of the Dell OpenManage
commands. If a firewall is installed in the system, it may cause these commands to fail. The following
Server Administrator CLI commands use FTP protocol to communicate with the RAC:
"omconfig rac uploadcert"
"omconfig rac generatecert"
