The following racadm commands use FTP protocol to communicate with the RAC:

"racadm sslcertupload"

"racadm sslcsrgen"

"racadm fwupdate"

Issue 5:

Description: If the RAC configuration is reset to factory defaults using the "racadm racresetcfg" command,

the RAC configuration tab in Server Administrator does not reflect the reset configuration settings until

the system reboots. Also, the RAC configuration page in Server Administrator cannot be used to make any

configuration changes until the system reboots.

Issue 6:

Description: The RAC does not support local RAC user IDs with special characters. When adding a local RAC

user, use only alphanumeric characters for the user name.

Issue 7:

Description: While the RAC is being reset, the Instrumentation Service cannot read sensor data for certain

systems. As a result, the voltage, temperature, and other probes may not be visible on the Server

Administrator home page until the RAC has completed resetting.

Issue 8:

Description: The RAC may not send traps when your system is locked up.

Resolution: To enable traps to be sent when the system is locked, configure the watchdog timer using the

Server Administrator GUI. On the GUI, click the "Properties" tab and ensure that "Auto Recovery" is

selected. The default value of the "Action On Hung Operating System Detection" setting is "None". "None"

indicates that detection will not be performed.

Issue 9:

Description: RAC firmware 2.0 and higher does not support passwords with special characters (non-

alphanumeric) only for RAC user IDs logging in using the Web-based interface (with Local RAC

Authentication). If you created RAC user IDs using previous versions of the firmware or if you created user

IDs using Server Administrator that is running version 2.0 firmware on the managed system, you cannot log

in to the RAC.

Resolution: Use one of these methods to correct this issue:

 Change your passwords before updating the firmware.

 Use the following CLI command to change the password:

"omconfig rac users username=xx userpassword=yy" where "xx" is the original

user ID and "yy" is the new password.

 Change the password through Server Administrator using the "User" tab.

 Ensure that the check box to change the password is checked. Enter a new password, and then

enter it again to validate the change.
