2017 - 12 Dell EMC OpenManage Release Notes Version 9.1 This document describes the new features, enhancements, and fixed issues in Server Administrator 9.1.
Previous Version 8.5 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 servers from 11th generation till 14th generation.
– Encription Ciphers list has been updated as per OWASP Apache Tomcat Security Standards. – Supports NVDIMM (Non Volatile DIMM) monitoring in PowerEdge 14G servers. – Supports System Configuration Lockdown Mode in PowerEdge 14G servers. – Supports “Full Power Cycle” capability under BIOS settings which enables DC Power cycle followed by AC Power cycle of the auxiliary components (includes iDRAC, CPLD, etc.).
• If you have to uninstall and reinstall the operating system SNMP service, then reinstall Server Administrator, so that the Server Administrator SNMP agents are registered with the operating system SNMP agent. • Server Administrator Device Drivers for Linux: Server Administrator includes two device drivers for Linux: Systems - Management Base Driver (dcdbas) and BIOS Update Driver (dell_rbu). • Server Administrator uses these drivers to perform the systems management functions.
semaphores from the hypervisor's semaphore pool. If the ESXi system log indicates "no more semaphores available" then a suspension of virtual machines and complete reboot of the ESXi host is recommended to prevent overall hypervisor stability issues. • JIT-72246 : After uninstalling the Live VIB on ESXi OS 6.0 U3 and later systems, some of the folders including INI files may not be removed during cleanup in the /etc/cim/dell and /opt/dell folders.
• When running Server Administrator, crypt32.dll errors may be written to the operating system Application Event log. This issue occurs due to the Update Root Certificates component, which is installed by default as part of Windows Server 2003 installation. For more information on this component and reasons for errors, see the following articles on the Microsoft website: – http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/techno logies/security/ws03mngd/04_s3cer.mspx – http://support.
• DF551365: Server Administrator does not display the IP Address for Network Adapters that are used for virtual machines Description: In a Microsoft Hyper-V environment, the Server Administrator Network page may indicate network adapters that are connected to a network and display Ethernet statistics but, the IP address is displayed as 'Unknown'. This is because Hyper-V virtualizes adapters that are bonded to its virtual switch.
interactive applications properly for an Alert Action. Also, make sure the Interactive Services Detection service is running, to see the interface or prompt displayed by the interactive application. Once these changes are made, the operating system displays the Interactive services dialog detection dialog box to provide access to the interactive application interface or prompt.
• 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.
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.
• BITS050574: On 11th generation and 12th generation of PowerEdge servers running the Linux OS, the omreport system summary command displays RAC Command Interface as 7.1.0. "RAC Command Interface" is a DRAC4 RPM and its version is 7.1. It is installed as a dependent package for iDRAC6 and iDRAC7 Command Interface packages. • If a new certificate imported to Server Administrator is not active after restarting the Web server, restore the previous certificate.
• JIT-83687: Srvadmin-install.sh --express install fails now trying to install Remote Enablement Installation of OpenManage System Administrator with express option may fail on Linux Operating system due to the selection of Remote Enablement( cimagent ) component. Workaround: Use interactive mode of installation to avoid the selection of Remote Enablement( cimagent ) component.
• While the RAC is being reset, the Instrumentation Service cannot read sensor data for certain systems. As a result, the voltage, temperature, and other probes may not be visible on the Server Administrator home page until the RAC has completed resetting. • The RAC may not send traps when your system is locked up. To enable traps to be sent when the system is locked, configure the watchdog timer using the Server Administrator GUI.

USB connection error message Vendor: iDRAC Model: SECUPD Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Rev: 0329 • DF531509: The setup and/or system password configuration from the Server Administrator GUI or CLI is successful, but the password is displayed as blank instead of asterisk (*) on the F2 BIOS page.
Dell EMC OpenManage Release Notes Version 9.1 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.
Configuration task may report successful completion even when inconsistent virtual disks are present and have not been imported successfully. Solution: If the "Import Foreign Configuration" task is unable to import an inconsistent virtual disk, then the physical disks that belong to the virtual disk continue to display a "Foreign" state after the "Import Foreign Configuration" task completes.
• BITS128355: The slot occupancy report displays single backplane ID and backplane name in the Storage Management GUI and CLI. The physical disk slot occupancy report for PCIe Subsystem displays NVMe devices present in two different PCIe backplanes under the same PCIe backplane on PowerEdge R920 servers. The NVMe devices connected to different PCIe backplanes are displayed correctly under Storage > PCIe-SSD Subsystem > PCIe-SSD Extender > Enclosure.
• JIT-16919 (BITS270856): On Precision 7910 running a client operating system (for example, Windows 8.1 x64), the PERC 9.3 driver version is displayed as outdated and a yellow bang is shown on such hardware configurations. This issue does not cause any functionality limitation. • JIT-43557 : In Split Mode, Slot occupancy report displays inaccurate empty slots when there are no drives connected to the backplane. The report shows the message empty slots interchanged between controller.
• JIT-84544: In every refresh cycle for NVMe drives in VMware (ESXi) OS, following warning message is displayed in the vmkernel.log. LinuxThread: 381: sfcb-dcim: Error cloning thread: -1 (bad0117) • JIT-98301: The storage tree on the OM page disappears when there is I/O stress on ESXi host for multiple days. Workaround: Restart the service manually.
