Release Notes

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. The RAID-5 on S140 with NVMe drives is not supported.
Solution: To resolve this issue, you can create a virtual disk using the Create Virtual Disks Express Wizard and OM-CLI.
• JIT-63561 : In Dell’s 14th generation of PowerEdge servers, while doing the "Reconfiguration" operation, "Auto Configure RAID0"
option is listed in OMSA under H730P controller's "Available tasks". It happens during RAID level migration from RAID1 to RAID0.
• JIT-71918: On 14th generation of PowerEdge servers when connected with two SAS 12Gbps controllers in Slot4 & Slot5 and each
controllers are connected with separate MD1400 enclosure, both Enclosure EMMs are listed under “Connector 0” and no device is
listed under “Connector 1 ”. Slot-4 SAS 12Gbps controller is connected with two redundant EMMs which are listed in “Connector 0”.
Slot-5 12Gbps controller is also connected with two redundant EMMs, but both are listed under “Connector 0”.
• JIT-71919: On 14th generation of PowerEdge servers when connected with two SAS 12Gbps controller in Slot4 & Slot5 and each
controllers are connected with separate MD1400 enclosure, with two redundant cable i.e. EMM0 & EMM1, then with redundant EMM
both enclosures are listed for EMM0 & EMM1, but physical disks are not displayed for EMM1. Slot-4 SAS 12Gbps controller is
connected with two redundant EMMs – Here both EMMs are listed under “Connector 0”, and for EMM0 physical Disk is listed and for
EMM1 no physical disks are listed. Slot-5 SAS 12Gbps controller is connected with single EMM (ie.EMM1) – Here one EMM0 is listed
under “Connector 0”, and for EMM1 physical Disk are listed.
• JIT-78857: Successful Prepare to remove and reinsertion operation on a drive for 3-4 times, will result in all the drives getting
removed and inserted back in ESXi 6.5 U1 operating system.
• JIT-79925: On 13th generation of PowerEdge servers, OMSS reports for PCIe Link Speed is negotiated and maximum link speed/
width shows '0' for Slot 1 device.
• JIT-76259: EMMI alert description for Dedicated hot spare assigned physical disk should contain meaningful alert description instead
of the statement, This alert is provided for informational purposes.
• JIT-72304 : Able to assign lesser capacity physical disk as a DHS to the virtual disk created with physical disk having higher capacity.
• JIT-80085: The alert descriptions, in the online help, for Set Available Spare Warning Threshold and Set Available Spare Critical
Threshold show "The Available Spare Warning Threshold for PCIe SSDs is set to %1" and "The Available Spare Critical Threshold for
PCIe SSDs is set to %1" respectively, instead of "The Available Spare Warning Threshold for PCIe SSDs is set to <value>" and "The
Available Spare Critical Threshold for PCIe SSDs is set to <value>".
• JIT-80079: On a system with S140 controller, when prepare to remove operation is performed on a non-RAID NVMe drive, the Virtual
disk bus protocol for the VD associated with that drive is shown as SATA, instead of PCIe SSD.
• JIT-97576: On systems running Vmware ESXi operating systems for BOSS controller, an alert is displayed as rebuild completed which
requires service restart to log the alerts.
• JIT-94666: For Non-RAID drives attached to SWRAID controller enumerates for virtual Disk layout as Non-RAID. Whereas on Storage
Management GUI, when you click on virtual disk name the physical drives does not display as Non-RAID.”
• JIT-96670: On systems running VMware operating systems if the sfcbd-watchdog is stopped abruptly before completion of the
SNMP traps for storage task is logged. Semaphore leak is observed.
Workaround: Run the sfcbd-watchdog until SNMP traps for storage task is completed.
• JIT-96484: Auto Config RAID 0 task fails and displays improper error message, when there are no free drives to create RAID 0 virtual
disks on the server. Exit the wizard of the error page as Server Administrator log out.
Workaround: Once again login to OMSA GUI.
• JIT-97151: Full view of Physical Disk Page in Server Administrator GUI, the negotiated speed for a 6Gbps drive capable speed is
intermittently shown as 12Gbps.
• JIT-94842: Storage Management carries SHA1 signed library ( storelibIR) in the current release.
• JIT-95176: The Physical disks available in MX5016s connected to MX7000 chassis slot 8 does not support RAID-10 intelligent mirror
virtual disk creation.
• JIT-92467: The dynamic mapping of an enclosure for the first time also displays the unmapped enclosure for a short period. Refresh
the Server Administrator page to remove the unmapped enclosure entries.
• JIT-104975: In storage management, FAN speed changes will not update dynamically.
Workaround: Data manager service restart will update the latest FAN speed.
