currently known issues regarding implementation and operation of your RAC and the Remote Access Service in Server

Issues of Server Administrator on all Operating Systems
• The Server Administrator user interface and commands related to local authentication enable are not applicable for RAC rmware
3.20. The Active Directory authentication feature replaces the local operating system authentication feature in this version of
rmware. Due to this change, the following commands return errors:
– racadm localauthenable
– omcong rac authentication
NOTE
: The following packages will be deprecated from DellEMC Server Administrator current release (9.1.0):
a Srvadmin-racadm4.
b Srvadmin-racadm5.
• Due to uctuations in the watchdog timer, the Last Crash Screen may not be captured when the Automatic System Recovery is set to
a value of less than 30 seconds. To ensure the correct functioning of the Last Crash Screen feature, set the System Reset Timer to at
least 30 seconds.
• DF132894: The cfgDNSServer1 and cfgDNSServer2 properties of group cfgLanNetworking may be set to identical values while
swapping addresses. Some performance may be lost temporarily during the swapping. The cfgLanNetworking group is congured using
theracadm cong command.
• The remote access controller uses FTP protocol to perform some of the Server Administrator commands. If a rewall is installed in the
system, it may cause these commands to fail.
The following Server Administrator CLI commands use FTP protocol to communicate with the RAC:
– omcong rac uploadcert
– omcong rac generatecert
The following racadm commands use FTP protocol to communicate with the RAC:
– racadm sslcertupload
– racadm sslcsrgen
– racadm fwupdate
• If the RAC conguration is reset to factory defaults using the racadm racresetcfg command, the RAC conguration tab in Server
Administrator does not reect the reset conguration settings until the system reboots. Also, the RAC conguration page in Server
Administrator cannot be used to make any conguration changes until the system reboots.
• The RAC does not support local RAC user IDs with special characters. When adding a local RAC user, use only alphanumeric characters
for the user name.
