upgrade, the OS to iDRAC pass-through channel setting changes to USB NIC mode (default setting).
Resolution:
After the firmware upgrade, set the OS to iDRAC Pass-through mode as LOM PT.
Versions/Systems Affected:

Issue 59:
Description
When a MD1200/MD1220 storage enclosure’s Enclosure management module (EMM) is removed, its
temperature sensor values are shown in the iDRAC Web interface. iDRAC shows the negative readings
instead of showing them as inactive. The state of the EMM is shown as removed or failed, Only the
values are not shown intuitively to reflect its removed or failed status.
Resolution
Check the EMM’s status to make sure the temperature sensor’s readings are correct.
Versions/Systems Affected
All 12th generation PowerEdge systems with iDRAC7 and MD1200/MD1220 connected to it.
