iDRAC7 – Fixes
• When Virtual Console port number changed through RACADM command, few unrelated text
may appear in the same console.
• iDRAC not ready.
iDRAC7 - Important Notes
• After an iDRAC7 firmware update, a few of the iDRAC7 Web interface panels or navigation menu
items may contain incorrect or invalid entries. To resolve this, clear the browser cache(s) after
updating the iDRAC7 firmware.
• License Requirements:
− Software licensing has replaced hardware licensing. For more information, see, the Dell License
Manager User's Guide
.
− Lifecycle Controller features such as Auto Discovery and vFlash are now licensed. Install the correct
licenses for Lifecycle Controller Remote Services to work properly.
• Only if there is one or more network interface cards (NDC or LOM) present on the managed
system, Network Devices appears under Overview -> Hardware section in the iDRAC7 Web
interface.
• When using iDRAC7 Web interface in Firefox 3.6 if the SD card is removed while partition
creation is in-progress, "The operation has been completed successfully" message is displayed.
• For the Virtual Console and Virtual Media to function properly, iDRAC7 Web URL must be added
to the Local Intranet site list and the security level for the Local Intranet zone should be set to
Medium-Low. In addition, if Virtual Console and Virtual Media are configured to use Java plug-in,
then disable the Enhanced Security Mode in Internet Explorer. If this is not possible, then in
iDRAC7, configure Virtual Console to use the ActiveX plug-in.
• If the instant messenger is launched in the Virtual Console viewer with ActiveX native plug-in
and another application is started (example Notepad, WordPad, and so on) without minimizing
the Virtual Console, the instant messenger box also pops-up on other applications. This does
not happen with Java plug-in.
• When a system is in POST, it is not possible to attach a vFlash partition as the first boot device.
• Virtual Console Viewer from iDRAC7 Web interface terminates when the managed system is
restarted.
