=======================================================================
ISSUES FOR ALL SUPPORTED WINDOWS OPERATING SYSTEMS
=======================================================================
* Dell OpenManage Install does not support Windows "Advertised"
installation - the process of automatically distributing a program
to client computers for installation, through the Windows group
policies. (144364)
* When launching the "Quick Installation Guide" from the "Prerequisite
Checker", a Windows message will appear indicating that the page is
blocked due to enhanced security configuration. You must add the IP
address of the local machine to the "Trusted Sites" list for the pages
to be displayed or lower your security settings.(134991)
* If the Prerequisite Checker hangs while installing Microsoft
Visual Studio run time on Windows Server 2008, go to the Control Panel
and check for the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable" entry.
If this entry is present, this program is already installed, exit
from the Prerequisite Checker. Now, re-run the Prerequisite Checker. If
this entry is not present go to SYSMGMT\ManagementStation\windows\
ITAssistant\support folder and install using the vcredist_x86.exe
file. (163517)
* When you upgrade to a later version, if your system date is earlier
than the date at which the installed files were created, the upgrade
fails. (187920)
=======================================================================
ISSUES FOR ALL SUPPORTED WINDOWS SERVER 2008
=======================================================================
* On the Windows Server 2008 operating system, if you install IT Assistant
directly from the MSI package, the installation may fail with an error
message. To avoid this, run the Visual Studio runtime available
within the support folder prior to installing ITA.
