* To ensure the successful installation of an Operating System using
Server OS Installation, disable the DRAC Virtual Flash.
* When you are using the Server Operating System Installation module
in Systems Build and Update Utility to install an operating system,
the installation may fail if an external storage device is connected
to your system. Ensure that you disconnect the external storage
device before you begin installing the operating system.
* The Edit option shown on the SBUU homepage after Hardware
Configuration section is configured, will allow the user only to view
all the created Virtual Disks and user is allowed to add or remove
Virtual Disks. User will not be allowed to edit the settings of
already configured Virtual Disk.
* When an external storage enclosure is connected to the storage
controller, RAID can be configured on that controller using SBUU.
But, SBUU will not support installing an Operating System on the
Virtual Disk which is created on the controller connecting to an
external storage enclosure.
* iDRAC users created through SBUU do not get enabled. To enable
these users, user will have to go to DRAC (DRAC5 or iDRAC) GUI and
set the user privilege level to desired level (Administrator,
Operator etc).
* When you insert multiple USB keys into your system, Systems Build and
Update Utility uses the last inserted USB key which has a repository
that is applicable to the platform to which your system belongs and
is compatible with the Systems Build and Update Utility repository.
