ISSUES FOR ENTERPRISE LINUX and ESX OPERATING SYSTEMS
----------------------------------------------------------------------
* If you have the SCIM RPM installed, keyboard navigation may not
function correctly while selecting the 'Selection Options'.
* Running the CD/DVD Read Exerciser test on corrupt CD media or on
a faulty drive may cause the test to run for a longer duration,
and Online Diagnostics may appear to hang.
Terminate Online Diagnostics and try running the test
again in the Quick Test mode.
* Serial port tests are not enumerated on Red Hat(R) Enterprise
Linux(R) version 5 update 3 with XEN kernel. This is because XEN
kernel uses the serial port during system boot up and operating
system fails to load the serial port driver.
* The Intel NIC description may have some extra trailing characters on
the Diagnostics selection page on systems running the Red Hat
Enterprise Linux operating system. This does not impact the NIC
functionality.
* Intel Offline test fails when the network services are stopped,
if the adapter is not configured for Wake-on-LAN (WOL) or
Manageability; and the PHY is powered off.
Since the test powers on the PHY and enables WOL, the
test passes next time onwards.
* Connecting or removing USB or CD/DVD devices from Red Hat
Enterprise Linux systems, while the enumeration is in progress,
may cause the system to hang.
* If tapeware is installed, the Dell Online Diagnostics application
may fail to start. If that happens, please delete the softlink
entry /lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 and restart the Dell Online
Diagnostics application to make it work. Please check with the
Tapeware support team for fix to this issue.
* ICH7R IDE controllers are not supported. Running tests on this
controller or the devices connected to it may cause
unexpected behavior.
* When you run a SCSI Communication test, on a channel that has an
LTO3 tape drive connected to it and perform a backup
simultaneously using 'tar commands', the backup operation may fail.
Ensure that backup or restore operations are not in progress
