2019 - 10 Dell EMC OpenManage Release Notes Version 9.3.2 This document describes the new features, enhancements, and fixed issues in Server Administrator 9.3.1.
Platforms Affected For a complete list of supported Dell PowerEdge systems and supported Operating systems, see the Dell EMC OpenManage Systems Software Support Matrix available in the required version of OpenManage Software at dell.com/openmanagemanuals. What is Supported Hardware Requirements • • • • Minimum of 2 GB RAM Minimum of 512 MB free hard drive space Administrator rights Monitor with a minimum screen resolution of 800 x 600.
• • • • • • • PERC H745 Front PERC H745 Adapter PERC H345 Front PERC H345 Adapter HBA345 Adp HBA345 Frnt Supported network cards: • • • • • • • • • • • Mellanox ConnectX-5 Dual Port 25 GbE SFP28 PCIe Adapter Mellanox ConnectX-5 Dual Port 25 GbE SFP28 OCP 3.
• • • • • • • If a system with memory redundancy enabled enters a redundancy lost state, it may not be clear which memory module caused it. If you cannot determine which DIMM to replace, see the switch to spare memory detected log entry in the ESM system log to find the memory module that failed. If you run Server Administrator when the system is in OS Install Mode, it may report the memory incorrectly. To avoid this issue, you must disable OS Install Mode before running the application.
Issues of Server Administrator on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server Linux Operating Systems • JIT-107407: On systems running SUSE Linux 15, the Server Administrator web server (DWS) fails to login to any supported Server Administrator managed node. This is valid only for the users who have opted for Remote Enablement.
• • • • • • • • evbdx.sys is the Virtual Bus Driver (VBD); also called the Base Driver bxnd60x.sys is the driver for the Broadcom NDIS device. Microsoft Device Manager reports both the drivers, but Server Administrator displays only the driver details specific to the VBD device. BITS080169: Documentation for Power Supply alerts mentions only AC power supply, but the alerts are valid for both AC and DC power supplies.
• • • • • • • • 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 , 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.
• • 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.
• If a new certificate imported to Server Administrator is not active after restarting the Web server, restore the previous certificate. To restore the previous certificate, do the following: 1. Stop the Web server. 2. Perform one of the following as applicable: • On systems running Windows: Delete the file keystore.db at \Dell\SysMgt\apache- tomcat\conf\ Rename the file keystore.db.bak at \Dell\SysMgt\apache- tomcat\conf\ to keystore.
Issues for Remote Access NOTE: The Remote Access Service is supported on 11th generation of PowerEdge servers only. The following subsections list the currently known issues regarding implementation and operation of your RAC and the Remote Access Service in Server Administrator. 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 firmware 3.20.
• Depending on your network and proxy configurations and whether you are using Mozilla browser, you may need to enter the exact IP address of the RAC controller, you are trying to access in the No Proxy for field of your browser. Perform the following steps: • • • • • • • • • • 1. Open your Mozilla browser. 2. Click Edit. 3. Click Preferences. 4. Click Advanced in the left sidebar. 5. Click Proxies in the left sidebar. 6. Enter the RAC IP address in the No Proxy for: field. 7.
• With the following wsman rpm versions getting carried in SLES12 OS,OMSA DWS does not work. Update these rpms having same or later versions from SUSE openwsman-server-2.4.11-2.18.x86_64.rpm ,libwsman1-2.4.11-2.18.x86_64.rpm, • 12 libwsman_clientpp1-2.4.11-2.18.x86_64.rpm JIT-108122: The Server Administrator web server (DWS) login fails to connect to Server Administrator managed node on systems running SUSE linux 15. This is valid only for the users who have opted for Remote Enablement.
2019 - 10 Dell EMC OpenManage Release Notes Version 9.3.2 The following section describes the issues and workaround in Server Administrator Storage Management.
• 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.
• BITS148893: When creating a virtual disk on PERC S130 (software RAID) controller, if you do not select the first option under Assign Dedicated Hot Spare a message appears: DHS not assigned to VD. When you create a virtual disk on a software RAID controller using the Create Virtual Disk wizard, the GUI control only verifies the first available option under DHS, leaving the other options unverified even if it is selected.
Description: In PERC S140 advanced wizard, virtual disk creation fails if a combination of NVMe and HHHL addin cards(AIC) are present. This issue is observed if the PCI slot ID of the add-in card (AIC) matches with the NVMe drive slot number. However, if only NVMe drives are used, you can successfully create the virtual disks. This is because the GUI code is unable to differentiate the slot ID/ number in Create Virtual Disks Advanced Wizard. NOTE: This issue does not cause any data loss.
• JIT-106970:After change controller mode operation is performed, two alerts that are generated have the same alert ID and description. • If the controller name is not displayed in the alert message, check the controller information for mapping the controller ID and controller name. • JIT-106295: Critical and warning a lert is not displayed on Enhanced Event Message alert for Physical Device and Controller ID on Available Spare threshold.
• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • JIT-120251: The foreign physical disks connected to the system, on reaching the maximum number of supported virtual disk by the controller is displayed on the Import Preview page as Orphan Drive. JIT-117872: On performing the unblink operation on physical disk connected to 12Gbps SAS HBA, observing both health and activity LEDs light turn off. JIT-121226: Storage Management is enumerating connector health status as HHHL AIC status in SWRaid NVMe configuration.
NOTE: This option should be set to Trusted sites. 5. Click the Custom Level button. 6. For Windows 2003, perform the following: • a. In Miscellaneous, select the Allow META REFRESH radio button. b. In Active Scripting, select the Enable radio button. c. Under Active scripting, select the Allow scripting of Microsoft web browser controls radio button. 7. Click OK and restart your browser. To allow Single Sign-on for Server Administrator, perform the following steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
