Release Notes

you must restart the server after using the Auto Congure RAID0 operation to ensure that all the physical disks in Ready state are

created with RAID 0 volumes.

• BITS268181: When a user creates a virtual disk using the GUI, physical disks are not listed under Dedicated Hot spare (DHS). So, the

user will not be able to assign DHS while creating a virtual disk.

Workaround: After creating the virtual disk, the user can assign DHS using the Assign/Unassign Dedicated Hot spare virtual disk

operation.

• JIT-16919 (BITS270856): On Precision 7910 running a client operating system (for example, Windows 8.1 x64), the PERC 9.3 driver

version is displayed as outdated and a yellow bang is shown on such hardware congurations. This issue does not cause any

functionality limitation.

• BITS271311: If you create RAID 50 or 60 conguration with 22 or 26 physical disks using the CLI, the operation is unsuccessful. This

issue is observed on all the operating systems and is limited to only RAID 50 or 60 conguration with 22 or 26 physical disks.

Workaround: To resolve this issue, you can create RAID 50 or 60 conguration using the OMSS GUI.

• JIT-16740: OMSS storage connector information for HBA330 Adaptor is incorrect. If connector A and B is connected to a

corresponding backplane SAS-A & B port, OMSS is displaying all the physical disks under Connector-1 and none under Connector-0.

This issue does not cause any functionality limitation.

• JIT-4248: Inconsistent behavior while enumerating physical disks connected to MD3060e enclosure. MD3060e enclosure is

unsupported by OMSS hence no need to show any drives exposed via 12 Gbps HBA.

• JIT-31342: Virtual disk creation on Software RAID S130 controller with multiple Dedicated Hot Spare (DHS) assigned displays an error

message. Assigning DHS is unsuccessful only when the user selects more than one DHS during virtual disk creation. There are no other

issues observed during virtual disk creation.

Workaround: After the virtual disk is created, you can assign multiple DHS to the virtual disk by selecting the Assign Dedicated Hot

Spare task from the Available Tasks drop-down menu of the virtual disk.

Installation Prerequisites

Storage Management does not display controllers and their features on systems that do not meet the driver and rmware requirements. At

Storage Management runtime, you can determine whether the system meets the rmware requirement or not, by checking the application

log les for notications on outdated rmware. At runtime, On SCSI controllers, Storage Management displays the rmware version at

runtime while on SAS controllers it displays the rmware and driver versions.

Installation Procedure

For complete installation instructions, see the Dell EMC OpenManage Server Administrator version Installation Guide.

This section provides information to enhance your experience with Server Administrator implementations and environments.

• Port 1311 is the default port for Server Administrator. It is a registered port number of Server Administrator. If another application is

congured to run on port 1311 before Server Administrator is installed, the DSM SA Connection Service does not start after installation.

Before you install Server Administrator, make sure that the port 1311 is not in use.
