Release Notes
•
All unsecured HTTP requests to Server Administrator receive an invalid response. Server
Administrator runs only one instance of the Web server, which is secure. Make all
connections through https://<ip address> : <port number>. Any "http://<ip address>: <port
number>" request for connection with the server receives an invalid response.
•
If the browser used with Server Administrator does not display a page or perform an
action, make sure that the browser is in online mode. To go online, perform the following:
o
In Internet Explorer, on the menu bar, click "File" and clear the "Work Offline"
option. When "Work Offline" is selected, a check mark is displayed to the left
of the option on the "File" menu.
•
If Internet Explorer prompts you to "Work Offline", "Connect", or "Try Again", always select
"Connect" or "Try Again". Do not select "Work Offline".
•
While setting dates in the "Asset Information" section of the Server Administrator home
page, the current time is appended to the date. While setting dates with the CLI, the
appended time is noon.
•
On some systems, temperature probe values and settings are only supported for whole
degrees, not tenths of a degree. On those systems, setting a fractional value for the
minimum warning temperature threshold results in the set value being rounded off to the
next whole number value. This behavior may cause the minimum warning threshold to
have the same value as the minimum failure threshold.
•
If you close the browser using the "Close" button on the browser or log off from the
operating system, the Server Administrator session is not terminated. This session is listed
in the Session Management page until the session time out occurs, or DSM SA connection
service is restarted, or the operating system is rebooted.
•
If you change the operating system Time Zone to a new time zone, Server Administrator
session management does not display the time in the new time zone specified. Restart
Server Administrator to display the accurate time for the time zone in the Session
Management page.
•
DF78425: The Server Administrator Auto Recovery feature may execute the configured
action before the time interval when the system is under heavy stress.
The Auto Recovery feature can be set to execute an action (For example, system reboot) to
recover a hung system. Since the Auto Recovery timer is now an application-level timer
instead of a kernel-level timer, heavy resource stress on the system may result in an
inaccurate measurement of a short keep alive interval (less than 120 seconds), and the
configured action may be triggered.
The issue is more prevalent in systems that have only one CPU with hyper-threading
unsupported/disabled or systems that are subjected to persistent stressful conditions such
as, resource depletion and CPU running at 100% usage with significantly more threads
than normal usage.
The Auto Recovery feature is not enabled by default. If the Auto Recovery feature has been
enabled, increase the System Reset Timer value to at least 120 seconds.
•
Using the Internet Explorer browser, if you install Server Administrator on a system that
includes an underscore in its hostname, you must use the IP address of the target system
in the browser URL to launch Server Administrator, as Hostnames with underscores are
not supported. For example, (assuming Server Administrator is listening on port 1311):
https://192.168.2.3:1311.

DF 152755: The Server Administrator GUI does not respond when the alerts log has many
events. If the Alert Log contains several entries and if you try to navigate to another page,
the Server Administrator GUI may take about 30 seconds to display the content.
•
DF 172125: Power monitoring probes are displayed on certain systems that do not support
power monitoring. On certain systems that do not support power monitoring, Server
