Known issues

If you enumerate the enclosure view's WSMAN command on a system while one PSU-cable is removed, the primary status of
the enclosure view is reported as Healthy instead of Warning.
After the iDRAC reset or firmware update, the ServerPoweredOnTime (a property in RACADM and WS-MAN) may not be
populated until the host server is restarted.
On performing warm boots, occasionally a message is displayed by BIOS indicating that there is a KCS failure (error code
UEFI0039). No action required for this error Rebooting the host restores normal boot behavior.
Upon execution of racadm swinventory or racadm hwinventory command via a local RACADM interface, the inventory details
are not fetched if all the OS drives (A-Z) are mapped. Unmap an existing OS drive to resolve this issue.
Using local RACADM proxy, if you configure a CMC user name that consists of a space, the command does not successfully
create the user name. Use CMC RACADM, Remote RACADM, or the Remote RACADM proxy interface.
Redfish response contains an HTTP header named Allow, when the HTTP response code is 405. The list may contain PATCH,
DELETE, POST, GET, HEAD values, but all of them may not be supported.
If a requested resource is not present, HTTP response status code may not be always 404.
Scrolling-down using the mouse does not work in VNC server.
When a new PCIe SSD drive is hot plugged in an empty drive bay slot, the PrepareToRemove or SecureErase features on that
drive fail unless the host is rebooted and it completes the CSIOR cycle.
Sometimes, iDRAC logs the following message to the Lifecycle Controller log: PWR2262: "The Intel Management Engine has
reported an internal system error." Also, it logs the following message within the next few minutes: PWR2264: "The Intel
Management Engine has reported normal system operation." No action is required. All Dell PowerEdge systems with iDRAC7 and
iDRAC8 are affected.
Server Configuration Profile (SCP) Import and Preview configuration does not give details about the values that are modified via
SCP Redfish. These configuration details are not available via the Redfish interface. For configuration details, run the command -
"racadm lclog viewconfigresult -j JID_xxxxxxxxxxxx".
When you enumerate DCIM_NumericSensor using the WS-MAN interface, the SettableThreshold property displays '0', which
indicates that the LowerThresholdNonCritical field can be set. However, for performance-statistic sensors, this is not a settable
field. For these sensors, you can only set the UpperThresholdNonCritical field, indicated by the value of '1'.
Sometimes, when using WSMAN, an "Internal SSL Error" is reported and the WSMAN command fails. If this happens, retry the
command to resolve the issue.
Sometimes, SLES 12 OS installation may fail with an error "Please make sure your installation medium is available. Retry?". Retry
the installation to resolve the issue.
The command "racadm eventfilters get -c idrac.alert.all" to view all available event filter configurations
using local RACADM may fail. Use either firmware RACADM or remote RACADM to run the command.
While updating or after you update the OS Collector (OSC) package from 1.1 to 2.1, the version number displayed in the iDRAC
interface contains only the number and not the prefix 'OSC_'.
