Dell OpenManage Network Manager Release Note page 7

• Exporting to Excel does not work in Internet Explorer. Workaround: Ctrl +
click the Excel export button in OpenManage Network Manager. (13456)
• Clicking My Assets in the toolbar repeatedly may halt portlets. Workaround:
Restarting the browser, or signing out and signing back in lets things work
again. This is the result of built-in phishing protection. (10942)
• Mutlitab browsing is not supported and may produce unpredictable results.
(10963)
• In a job viewer window, some audit trail messages may appear too narrow to
read in their entirety. Workaround(s): Enlarge the browser and the job
viewer window grows bigger (maximized, you will see more of the message).
The job viewer window lets you copy and paste the message text into applica-
tions like notepad for less restricted viewing and for additional message anal-
ysis. (16320)
• In some cases a single managed object may be discoverable via multiple IP
addresses. Each discovered IP creates a new inventory object and will count
against any licensed Right To Manage total. Workaround: Network elements
should be managed through a single interface/IP. Additional discovered inter-
faces should be deleted leaving only one managed object in inventory.

• Discovery—When specifying network addresses using the Subnet type, you
must specify the Network address at the beginning of the subnet since Open-
Manage Network Manager assumes it is the starting IP address for the range.
If you specify an address in the middle of the subnetwork then OpenManage
Network Manager may discover devices outside of that subnetwork. This also
means that IP addresses in the network that precede the specified address are
not discovered. To avoid these issues, use the CIDR specification of the net-
work to discover rather that the subnet ID. (16803)
• Link discovery currently does not find one-ended links. (16305)
• Devices not implementing LLDP MIBs with complete and correct data will
prevent OMNM from discovering links for the device. Also some devices
encode STP data collected via SNMP in a way that is difficult to decipher. In
these cases, the algorithm OMNM logs a warning message "Problem deter-
mining designated port encoding algorithm" during device link discovery.
(16438)
• The Red Hat system clock can differ one hour from the application server
clock. (15524)
• When OMNM status icon in the tray is green and you select procman ("pro-
cess manager") restart from Windows' Control Panel services, an error mes-
sage appears saying the service did not stop properly. The tray icon then turns
white. Since the application server is still running, when you try to restart
procman again from control panel, the icon turns red.
Workaround: Stop all Java and WMI processes in the process manager. A sys-
tem reboot also re-initializes the OWProcMan (process monitor). Note that
the service name may be different if your package has been specifically
branded. The executable path for the service is
\....\oware\bin\owprocman.exe. (16335)
