Release Notes

• If Internet Explorer prompts you to "Work Offline", "Connect", or "Try Again", always select
"Connect" or "Try Again". Do not select "Work Offline".
• 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 arenot 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 Administrator
reports the two platform event filters related to a power monitoring as "System Power Probe
Warning" and "System Power Probe Failure". These two filters are not supported on these systems.
That is, you can view and configure these filters, but no action is taken.
• DF185770: Primary User Telephone Number does not accept symbols. On Server Administrator,
under Asset Information->System Information->Primary User Telephone Number configuration
allows only alphanumeric characters.
