6 Known issues Known issues and resolutions • Issue 1: iDRAC might not send an event when your system reboots. Description: Sometimes, the iDRAC might not send an event when your system reboots. In this case, OMIVV sends latest health update notification by polling mechanism and you receive the latest health update within an hour. • Version affected: 4.0 and later Issue 2: iDRAC license type and description are displayed incorrectly for non-compliant vSphere hosts.
Description: Systems with software RAID show incorrect number of hard drives on the storage overview page. Version affected: All Resolution/Workaround: None. The ESXi does not support software RAID. If the system has software RAID, it shows incorrect disks. • Issue 7: System Event Logs are not showing in OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter when power supply redundancy is lost. Description: When the power redundancy is lost on the PowerEdge modular servers, the system logs get cleared.
Version affected: 1.6 and later • Resolution/Workaround: Reset the iDRAC to fix the issue of iDRAC not being responsive, and then rerun the inventory. If the inventory can get the iDRAC IP, then the host is associated with the correct host credential profile. Issue 14: Unable to boot to service partition while deploying OS ISO. Description: OS deployment is failing on 12th generation PowerEdge servers with the following error on the screen during POST: "Warning: Unable to boot to Service Partition.
• Resolution/Workaround: Do back up and restore to update the OMIVV appliance. Issue 23: Unable to apply system profile that has PCIe card in the FX chassis. Description: The OS deployment fails on a target server if the source server has PCIe card information when using an FX chassis. The System profiles on the source server have different fc.chassislot ID than the one on the target server. OMIVV tries to deploy the same fc.chassislot ID on the target server but fails.
Resolution: Restart the vCenter services. • Version Affected: 4.3 and later Issue 30: Sometimes, the storage inventory data is not displayed for the host managed using chassis credential profile and present in member chassis. Description: The storage data may not be displayed for an MX host managed using the chassis credential profile and for a host present in the member chassis.
