• To log on to Server Administrator using the VMware ESX 4.1 operating system as server administrator, restart the DSM SA Connection Service. • To log on to the Remote Node using the VMware ESX 4.1 operating system as Remote Enablement Agent, wait for about five minutes for the ‘sfcbd’ to add permission for the new user. Issue 2 (DF354388): Remote Server Administrator Web Server connection to managed node hangs, if a redundant virtual disk containing syslog dumps fails.
Issue 4: After a "Reset to Defaults" operation of the Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller, the first user configuration operation fails if it is a single-user configuration item (such as enabling or disabling a user or changing user name). Always change a combination of two-user configuration items (such as enabling or disabling a user and changing user name) concurrently during your first configuration operation.
omconfig system webserver action=stop 2. Locate the "keystore.db.bak" file. The default path is "C:\program files\dell\SysMgt\apache-tomcat\conf". 3. Copy "keystore.db.bak" to "keystore.db". 4. Type: omconfig system webserver action=start Issue 14: A temperature drop below a minimum failure threshold does not cause a system reset even if this alert action is set.
This behavior may cause the minimum warning threshold to have the same value as the minimum failure threshold. Issue 23: If you close the browser using the "Close" button on the browser or log off from the operating system, the Server Administrator session is not terminated. This session is listed in the Session Management page until the session time out occurs, or DSM SA connection service is restarted, or the operating system is rebooted.
On Server Administrator, under Asset Information-> System Information-> Primary User Telephone Number configuration allows only alphanumeric characters. Issue 30: The selection of default option for front panel LCD in Server Administrator displays the Model Name whereas the default is Service Tag on the physical LCD. Issue 31: In case Server Administrator does not respond or is locked to your selections on the component tree, perform the following steps: 1. Click “Preferences”. The Preferences page appears.
Workaround: To enable editing of the Server Administrator BIOS attributes, launch Lifecycle Controller while booting. Issue 37: DF552204: On Mozilla Firefox browsers (versions 10, 11 and 12), Server Administrator fails to launch if IPv6 address is used. This is a known issue. For more information, see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=633001 Issue 38 (BITS040169): In case of Boot/HDD/UEFI sequence, if they are read-only, then toggle buttons (+ and -) and submit button are not visible.
The Server Administrator only discovers physical network adapters and displays their IP addresses that are fully-controlled by the operating system and not by hypervisors. Issues for Server Administrator Running on Microsoft Windows 2003 Operating Systems Issue 1: You can ignore the following warning message: A provider, omprov, has been registered in the WMI namespace, Root\CIMV2\Dell, to use the Local System account.
3. Click "Custom level" button and scroll down to "User Authentication". 4. Under "Logon", choose the option "Automatic logon with current user name and password". If Server Administrator is running in the "Local Intranet Zone", you may choose the option "Automatic log on only in Intranet zone" instead. 5. Click "Ok" to open dialog boxes to complete the setting. Issue 2: DF103661: Microsoft Windows Server 2008 - Alert Action -> Execute Application.
Go to Start-> Settings-> Control panel-> Add Remove Programs-> Select "Change" on the Server Administrator installation and select the "Repair" option to correct the issue. Issue 3: DF330800: Server Administrator Web server local user login fails on the Windows 2008 R2 Managed Node. When a Windows 2008 R2 Managed Node is added to a domain, logging in from any Server Administrator Web Server to that Windows 2008 R2 Managed Node will fail with local user or local power-user credentials.
Issue 2: Due to fluctuations in the watchdog timer, the "Last Crash Screen" may not be captured when the Automatic System Recovery is set to a value of less than 30 seconds. To ensure correct functioning of the "Last Crash Screen" feature, set the System Reset Timer to at least 30 seconds. Issue 3: DF132894: The cfgDNSServer1 and cfgDNSServer2 properties of group cfgLanNetworking may be set to identical values while swapping addresses. Some performance may be lost temporarily during the swapping.
• Use the following CLI command to change the password: "omconfig rac users username=xx userpassword=yy" where "xx" is the original user ID and "yy" is the new password. • Change the password through Server Administrator using the "User" tab. Make sure that the check box to change the password is checked. Enter a new password, and then enter it again to validate the change.
On a Windows 2008 R2 managed node, a valid CA signed certificate is required to create compatibility mode WinRM Listener. You cannot create a compatibility mode listener with a self-signed certificate. Issue 15: DF165588: Blank page is displayed after the browser is refreshed using or by clicking the browser "Refresh" button.

Issue 6: Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Storage Management 7.2 does not support PERC 4 controllers and earlier versions on ESXi 4.x, ESXi 5.x, ESX 4.x, and all 64-bit Linux Operating System. Issue 7: Hot removal of enclosure is not supported in Storage Management. It may result in unpredictable errors, such as stopping Storage Management service.
Issue 14: Hot plug of enclosures takes time to enumerate the enclosure and its components. During this time, there will be a delay in the response time of tasks, such as displaying the physical disks on the physical disk page and in the virtual disk selection page. Issue 15: All virtual disks from the SAS/iR controller display the name "IR Virtual Disk" on the "Preview" page.
Issue 20: DF152362: Storage Management may not display controllers installed with the Service and Diagnostics utility. Description: Storage Management may not recognize devices that are installed after Storage Management is already running. Solution: If Storage Management does not recognize a newly-added device and this problem has not been corrected with a Global Rescan, then reboot the system. Issue 21: DF120475: Storage Management SNMP traps are not filtered by Server Administrator.
