Release Notes

• The DSM Server Administrator Connection Service may hang on system startup if both
Oracle and VERITAS Backup Exec are installed on the system. To manually start the DSM
Server Administrator Connection Service on a system running Windows, click "Start->
Programs-> Administrative Tools-> Service", right-click "DSM Server Administrator
Connections Services" and select "Start".
• You may not have appropriate privileges on the Server Administrator GUI if you:
o Belong to an Active Directory group that is part of another group.
o Try to launch Server Administrator using the desktop icon when single sign-
on is enabled.
• Broadcom architecture has a split driver implementation - evbdx.sys and bxnd60x.sys.
o evbdx.sys is the Virtual Bus Driver (VBD); also called the Base Driver
o bxnd60x.sys is the driver for the Broadcom NDIS device.
Microsoft Device Manager reports both the drivers, but Server Administrator displays only
the driver details specific to the VBD device.
• BITS080169: Documentation for Power Supply alerts mentions only AC power supply, but
the alerts are valid for both AC and DC power supplies.
• BITS054513: On a system running Windows, while running CLI commands using telnet
from a system running Linux, the telnet session may terminate if the amount of data being
transferred is huge.
Workaround: Redirect the CLI output to a text file and use the “type” command to view
the output
• DF551365: Server Administrator does not display the IP Address for Network Adapters that
are used for virtual machines
Description: In a Microsoft Hyper-V environment, the Server Administrator Network page
may indicate network adapters that are connected to a network and display Ethernet
statistics but, the IP address is displayed as 'Unknown'. This is because Hyper-V virtualizes
adapters that are bonded to its virtual switch. 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.
• BITS080696: Windows "No Instance(s) Available" is reported for Dell_CMApplication class
data To get the data for Dell_CM* wmi classes query, first query any one of the Dell_*
classes.
• BITS129139: On systems running Windows operating system, the command prompt
closes if you run the following commands on any Dell PowerEdge systems:
omconfig system platformevents event=systempowerfail action=powerreduction
omconfig system platformevents event=systempowerwarn action=powerreduction
Note: The commands are supported only on 9G and 10G systems.
Issues for Server Administrator Running on Microsoft Windows 2003 Operating Systems
• You can ignore the following warning message: A provider, omprov, has been registered
in the WMI namespace, Root\CIMV2\Dell, to use the LocalSystem account. This account is
privileged and the provider may cause a security violation if it does not impersonate user
requests correctly. This can be ignored as the Managed Object Format file used to register
the provider ("omprov") states that the provider only reads the inventory data; it does not
perform any functions on the server that require user impersonation.
• When running Server Administrator, crypt32.dll errors may be written to the operating
system Application Event log. This issue occurs due to the "Update Root Certificates"
component, which is installed by default as part of Windows Server 2003 installation. For
more information on this component and reasons for errors, see the following articles on
the Microsoft website:
