Using FlexAddress 159
4 If the chassis service tag is reprogrammed, what happens if there is a
feature card bound to that chassis?
The Web interface will display an error that states:
This feature card was activated with a different
chassis. It must be removed before accessing the
FlexAddress feature.
Current Chassis Service Tag = XXXXXXXX
Feature Card Chassis Service Tag = YYYYYYYY
Dell Service will need to program the original chassis service tag back into
the chassis and reset the CMC.
5 What if I have two feature cards installed in my redundant CMC system?
Will I get an error?
The feature card in the active CMC will be active and installed in the
chassis. The second card will be ignored by CMC.
6 Does the SD card have a write protection lock on it?
Yes it does. Before installation of the SD card into the CMC module, verify
the write protection latch is in the "unlock" position. The FlexAddress
feature cannot be activated if the SD card is write protected. In this
situation, the
$racadm feature -s command will return this message:
No features active on the chassis. ERROR: read
only file system

What will happen if there isn’t an SD card in the active CMC module?
The
$racadm featurecard -s command will return this message:
No feature card inserted.

What will happen if the server BIOS is updated from version 1. xx to
version 2.
xx ?
The server module will need to be powered down. After the server BIOS
update is complete, the server modules do not get chassis-assigned
addresses.
