Release Notes

• 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 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 running 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 for the Server Administrator to display the
updated BIOS settings properly.
• If you import an invalid root certificate into Server Administrator, using Preferences → General Settings → Web Server → X.
509 Certificate, and try to log on to the application after restarting the Web server, a blank page is displayed. To fix this issue,
restore your original keystore.db file before importing a valid root certificate. To restore the keystore.db file, use both the basic
operating system commands and the Server Administrator Command Line Instrumentation (CLI).
Perform the following steps from your operating system command line:
a. Type: omconfig system webserver action=stop
b. Locate the keystore.db.bak file. The default path is C:\program files\dell\SysMgt\apache-tomcat\conf.
c. Copy keystore.db.bak to keystore.dbkeystore.db.
d. Type: omconfig system webserver action=start
• A temperature drop below a minimum failure threshold does not cause a system reset even if this alert action is set.
• Clicking the Back and Refresh buttons on the browser may not display the correct page regarding the Server Administrator
component tree, tabs, tab menus, or help, as Server Administrator has been designed with limited functionality to reduce
overhead. Full feature capabilities of the Web browser such as Back, Refresh, and Open in New Window may not be
supported.
• Selecting the boot sequence under the BIOS Setup tab does not re-enable boot devices that have been disabled in the System
Setup Program, earlier.
• The links on the Server Administrator home page may not work after repeated random clicking. To resolve this issue, refresh the
browser by pressing <F5> or click the browser Refresh button.
• 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 web 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:

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.
