Issue 2: 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: DF132894: 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: 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"
The following racadm commands use FTP protocol to communicate with the RAC:
• "racadm sslcertupload"
• "racadm sslcsrgen"
• "racadm fwupdate"
Issue 5: 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: 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: 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: The RAC may not send traps when your system is locked up. 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: RAC firmware 2.0 and later 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). You cannot
log on to RAC, if you created RAC user IDs using previous versions of the firmware or using Server
Administrator that is running version 2.0 firmware on the managed system.
Use one of these methods to correct this issue:
• Change your passwords before updating the firmware.
