Due to non-availability of resources, inventory collector may terminate unexpectedly
and restart. If this occurs, the folder "C:\Temp\invcol" may be left as an artifact. The
presence
of this folder does not affect the functionality of the inventory collection.
The folder can
be deleted if required.
After installing Server Administrator from the command prompt, typing an "omreport"
or mconfig" command from the same prompt can cause an error. Open a new
command prompt window and type commands.
If the command log page in the Server Administrator GUI displays an error message
indicating that the XML is malformed, you must clear the command log from the CLI
using
the "omconfig system cmdlog action=clear" command
After a "Reset to Defaults" operation of the Integrated Remote Access Controller, the first
user configuration operation fails if it is a single-user configuration item (such as
enabling
or disabling a user or changing user name). Always change a combination of
two-user
configuration items (such as enabling or disabling a user and changing user
name)
concurrently during your first configuration operation.
While typing the command "omreport system version -outc <filename>",ensure that
you
specify an absolute path name for the output file; else, the output file is empty. For
example, c:\out.txt.
Typing "omreport system esmlog/alertlog/cmdlog -fmt tbl" command on the CLI can
result in XML parsing errors if the size of the log is very large. Use the GUI or the "omreport
system esmlog/alertlog/cmdlog" CLI command to view the contents of the log.
For complex "omconfig" CLI commands that contain multiple set commands in one
command line, the CLI may report a success status for the command even if a part of the
command failed. To avoid this issue, run only one command per command line. The
current settings can be confirmed by performing the corresponding "omreport"
command.
Some complex "omconfig" CLI commands that contain multiple set operations have
been
modified to avoid the above problem. While executing a CLI command if the
message,
"Error! Illegal combination of parameters" is displayed, modify your command
into several simpler commands. Each command should change only one setting.
When running Server Administrator on a system with a traditional Chinese
operating
system, the application pages are displayed in simplified Chinese. To view
the Server
Administrator pages in English, go to your browser language preference page and
change
the language to English.
Log files saved from Server Administrator are saved in zip format. It is recommended
that
you open this zip file using WinZip. Windows Server 2003 or Windows XP
embedded "Compressed (zipped) Folder" utility is not recommended.
After configuring BIOS settings on certain systems, a second reboot may be required
