Release Notes

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.

Issues of Server Administrator on Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Operating Systems

• When starting Server Administrator from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux console, kernel log messages may appear. To avoid these

messages, perform the following steps:

1. Edit the /etc/sysconfig/syslog file and modify KLOGD_OPTIONS to KLOGD_OPTIONS="-c 4".

2. Restart syslog by executing /etc/init.d/syslog restart.

• When using the Mozilla Firefox web browser on Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating systems, the font and type size on the Server

Administrator global navigation bar appear different from the default font and type size that application uses.

• For systems running a supported Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating system, kernel driver messages such as AAC_ChardevOpen may

be displayed in the console at the login prompt. These messages are displayed in the console when the driver initialization is delayed by

the installation of Server Administrator services and can be ignored.

• For systems running a supported Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating system with SELinux in enforcing mode and Server

Administrator's SELinux policy installed, 'Execute application' alert actions might not work as intended due to restrictions by SELinux in

enforcing mode. This is valid only for the users who have opted for Remote Enablement.
