Implication Users may not get the correct MIC status in Intel® Integrated BMC Web
Console. There is no function impact to the server system. This issue doesn’t
happen when two Intel® Xeon Phi™ Coprocessor PCI Express* Cards are
installed.
Status This issue was fixed in BMC 01.19.4926 and later release.
Workaround None.
31. The Intel® Xeon Phi™ Coprocessor PCI Express* Card sensors numbering
may not be consistent with riser slot numbering
Problem The Intel® Xeon Phi™ Coprocessor PCI Express* Card (MIC card) sensors
numbering may not be consistent with riser slot numbering on the server board.
When a Intel® Xeon Phi™ Coprocessor PCI Express* Card is installed in the
server system, in Intel® Integrated BMC Web Console, the card sensor may
show “MIC 2 Status” and “MIC 2 Margin” if the card is installed on “RISER
SLOT_1” and “MIC 1 Status” and “MIC 1 Margin” if the card is installed on
“RISER SLOT_2”.
Implication Users need to read MIC 2 sensors for a card installed on “RISER SLOT_1” and
read MIC 1 sensors for a card installed on “RISER SLOT_2”. There is no
function impact to the server system.
Status This issue will be fixed in a future BMC release.
Workaround None.
32. Reported processor frequency is lower than expected when the BIOS
setup option EIST is disabled and the system is also in idle mode.
Problem When the system is in idle mode during OS runtime and EIST is disabled in
BIOS setup, the reported processor speed may report a lower than expected
frequency.
Implication EIST may function incorrectly.
Status This issue may be fixed in a future BIOS update.
Workaround N/A.
33. When using the 3ware® RAID controller cards, the system may hang
after creating RAID logic volume with BIOS R02.01.0002 or
R02.02.0002.
