Owner's Manual

• If you try to upgrade Server Administrator (32-bit) on a 64-bit operating system which already
has Server Administrator (64-bit) installed; the upgrade will not be successful. Work around
is:Uninstall OMSA (64-Bit) and install OMSA (32-Bit) previous version to perform the upgrade
using SUU (32-Bit) [BITS106560]
• With SLES 11 SP3 (Unsupported OS) when BIOS is updated, the system hangs after reboot
(BITS073273).
• On R915 server with RHEL5.9x86_64 operating system, SAS/SATA BackPlane firmware does not
get inventoried with SUU Comparison report (BITS087966)
• There is no BIOS package available for T105 platform (BITS089778)
• Linux 64 bit BIOS is not supported for these platforms : R710,T610,M610,R410,T410,T710,
M710,R910,M910,R510,M610x and M710Hd (BITS088938)
• On systems running Microsoft Windows 2012 operating system, the Broadcom 32-bit NIC
firmware DUP with part number 85NMY fails (BITS067355)
• When you run the SATA Hard disk update on Windows 2012 Standard OS with 16GB
configuration, it fails (BITS053783)
• When you run the Hard disk update (52P2Y) on Windows 2012 Operating System,
it fails (BITS054325)
Please refer the PSQN ID , ID:596787: Device Buffer error when running
hard drive SATA DUP under Windows Server 2012 for BITS053783 and BITS054325.
• Intel NIC will be inventoried on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 update 9
and 6 update 4 OS though it is not supported (BITS070174)
• SAS hard disk drive ST973452SS firmware dup update fails on SUSE Linux
Enterprise Server 11 SP2 (BITS042723)
• Power Edge R520 doesn't have the firmware support for H310 Adaptor (BITS053313)
• If your CERC ATA RAID controllers are configured with the H661
firmware, SUU cannot update the firmware to the latest version.
To update the firmware, use the "-force" option to manually apply
the DUP with the latest firmware version. (134775)
• When updating multiple, identical devices on the same system, SUU
applies the latest update to all instances of all devices. For
example, if your system is configured with three controllers
configured with firmware/driver versions 1.2, 1.3, and 1.4,
and the repository version is 1.4, SUU applies version 1.4 to all
instances of all devices. (136620)
• When you run SUU using the "-p" option, SUU reports the current
instance log location ("suu -p") instead of the SUU instance log
location ("suu -u") that is performing the update. (135925)
• SUU uses DUPs to update various system components. During a Red Hat
Enterprise Linux update, the DUPs create a "/var/lock/.spsetup"
file using the Linux lockfile utility during the initial execution
procedure. Kernel panics or sudden reboots during DUP execution
(reboots where TERM signals are not sent to running processes or
where running processes do not have time to catch these signals)
