2017 - 09 Dell EMC OpenManage Release Notes Version 9.0.2 This document describes the new features, enhancements, and fixed issues in Server Administrator 9.0.2.
Previous Version 9.0.1 Importance RECOMMENDED: Dell recommends applying this update during your next scheduled update cycle. The update contains feature enhancements or changes that will help keep your system software current and compatible with other system modules (firmware, BIOS, drivers and software).
What’s new in this release • Support for x86 to x64 upgrade install. • Support for servers from 11th generation till 14th generation.
Important Notes Notes for Server Administrator On 12th generation or later PowerEdge server with iDRAC7 1.30.30 and later versions, you can set the Platform Event Destination as IPv4, IPv6, or FQDN. Notes for Instrumentation Service • On 11th generation or later PowerEdge server, if conflicting BIOS settings exist while configuring BIOS setup options through Server Administrator, the update attempt may fail at system reboot and none of the BIOS setup options may be updated.
Notes for Remote Access Service • The remote access service is available on supported systems only in this release. It enables remote access to a server that has lost its network connection or that has become unresponsive. In the current release of Server Administrator, the Remote Access Service uses Integrated Remote Access Controller (iDRAC). • iDRAC also has its own CLI that is accessed through the racadm command. You can add racadm commands to a batch or script file to automate various user tasks.
Solution: Apply the latest Z-stream kernel patch on the system. The issue is resolved by the kernel rpm kernel-3.10.0-123.8.1.el7.x86_64.rpm. • JIT-55843: On Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating system, Server Administrator user interface fails to open. Issues of Server Administrator on all Linux Operating Systems • DF275424 and DF332775: Domain users unable to login to Windows MN from Linux Web Server.
d Add the server URL to Trusted sites under Tools > Internet Options > Security > Trusted sites > Sites. • BITS216267: Upgrading Server Administrator from 8.1 to 8.2 and then restarting DSM Connection Service after changing any server preference values would display a crash message in Windows Event Viewer's application log. This crash message is a false message and can be ignored.
Issues of Server Administrator on Microsoft Windows 2008 Operating Systems • DF103661: Microsoft Windows Server 2008 - Alert Action > Execute Application For security reasons, Microsoft Windows Server 2008 is configured to not to allow interactive services. When a service is installed as an interactive service on Microsoft Windows Server 2008, the operating system logs an error message in the Windows System log about the service being marked as an interactive service.
• On Dell PowerEdge T110 II systems, the following Server Administrator BIOS settings are not consistent with the F2 BIOS setup settings: • Watchdog timer: Server Administrator displays the option as disabled, but F2 BIOS allows to change the setting. • Embedded Video Controller: Server Administrator provides options to enable or disable, but in F2 BIOS the option is grayed out. • TPM Security: Server Administrator does not allow to change the settings, but F2 BIOS allows to change the settings.
• 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://: . Any http://: 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.
with the exception of designated configuration and log files. These files are updated to the disk periodically and on system shutdown. If the system is reset without a graceful shutdown before the updated to the designated configuration are made and before log files are updated to the disk, the changes are lost.
c • Delete the keystore.db file at /opt/dell/srvadmin/lib64/openmanage/apache- tomcat/conf • Rename the keystore.db.bak at /opt/dell/srvadmin/lib64/openmanage/apache-tomcat/conf to keystore.db Start the Web server. • BITS078118: On 12th generation of PowerEdge servers with specific versions of iDRAC, you cannot set the platform event alert actions (reboot, shut down, and so on) through Server Administrator. Set the alert actions for the events through iDRAC GUI.
• omconfig rac uploadcert • omconfig rac generatecert The following racadm commands use FTP protocol to communicate with the RAC: • racadm sslcertupload • racadm sslcsrgen • racadm fwupdate • 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.
• On 12th generation of PowerEdge servers, Server Administrator displays the Embedded Systems Management (ESM) or hardware logs. However, when the maximum limit for number of logs that can be recorded is reached, the existing oldest logs are overwritten. But for 11th generation of PowerEdge servers or prior, when the maximum limit is reached, the information logging is stopped. • DF523827: On Citrix XenServer 6.
2017 - 09 Dell EMC OpenManage Release Notes Version 9.0.2 The following section describes the issues and workaround in Server Administrator Storage Management. Known Issues and Workarounds for Storage Management Service • With Chinese or Japanese language browser settings, using the Storage Management Service Advanced Create Virtual Disk Wizard may occasionally result in text overflowing to the bottom of the side-by-side blue text boxes.
• Description: The Import Foreign Configuration task can only import virtual disks that have consistent data. A virtual disk with inconsistent data cannot be imported. When importing multiple virtual disks in a single operation, however, the Import Foreign Configuration task may report successful completion even when inconsistent virtual disks are present and have not been imported successfully.
• On a PowerEdge server with maximum configuration of 8 populated enclosures connected to the PERC hardware controller, the user can experience a delay in response. When Server Administrator storage commands such as Create Virtual Disk or Start check consistency are run, the delay in response can range from 10 — 30 minutes.
you must restart the server after using the Auto Configure RAID0 operation to ensure that all the physical disks in Ready state are created with RAID 0 volumes. • BITS268181: When a user creates a virtual disk using the GUI, physical disks are not listed under Dedicated Hot spare (DHS). So, the user will not be able to assign DHS while creating a virtual disk. Workaround: After creating the virtual disk, the user can assign DHS using the Assign/Unassign Dedicated Hot spare virtual disk operation.
c Click the Security tab. d Select the security zone to which the system running Server Administrator belongs. NOTE: This option should be set to Trusted sites. e Click the Custom Level button. f For Windows 2003, perform the following: g • • • 1 In Miscellaneous, select the Allow META REFRESH radio button. 2 In Active Scripting, select the Enable radio button. 3 Under Active scripting, select the Allow scripting of Microsoft web browser controls radio button.
NOTE: A MIB-II-compliant, SNMP-supported network management station is required to compile and browse MIB files. OpenManage support for Encrypting File System (EFS) • To improve security, Microsoft allows encrypting files using EFS. Note that SERVER ADMINISTRATOR will not function if its dependent files are encrypted.
