Issues of Server Administrator on All Supported Operating
Systems
BITS107804: On PowerEdge R210 II and T110 II servers, clearing the Shutdown OS First check box and performing a reboot using the
‘Reboot’ option does not reboot the servers. After performing these steps if you refresh the Page, the options on the Remote
Shutdown page are not displayed.
On Dell PowerEdge T110 II systems, the following Server Administrator BIOS settings are not consistent with the F2 BIOS setup
settings:
Watchdog timer: Server Administrator displays the option as disabled, but F2 BIOS allows to change the setting.
Embedded Video Controller: Server Administrator provides options to enable or disable, but in F2 BIOS the option is grayed out.
TPM Security: Server Administrator does not allow to change the settings, but F2 BIOS allows to change the settings.
System Prole State: Server Administrator does not allow to make changes, but F2 BIOS allows to make the changes.
Memory Testing: Server Administrator does not support this feature, but F2 BIOS supports this feature.
SRIOV option: Server Administrator does not display this information, but F2 BIOS displays this feature.
Due to non-availability of resources, inventory collector may terminate unexpectedly and restart. If this occurs, the folder C:\Temp
\invcol may be left as an artifact. The presence of this folder does not aect the functionality of the inventory collection. The folder
can be deleted if required.
After installing Server Administrator from the command prompt, typing an omreport or mcong command from the same prompt can
cause an error. Open a new command prompt window and type commands.
If the command log page in the Server Administrator GUI displays an error message indicating that the XML is malformed, you must
clear the command log from the CLI using the omcong system cmdlog action=clear command
After a Reset to Defaults operation of the Integrated Remote Access Controller, the rst user conguration, operation fails if it is a
single-user conguration item (such as enabling or disabling a user or changing user name). Always change a combination of two-user
conguration items (such as enabling or disabling a user and changing user name) concurrently during your rst conguration operation.
While typing the command omreport system version -outc <lename>, ensure that you specify an absolute path name for the output
le; else, the output le is empty. For example, c:\out.txt.
Typing omreport system esmlog/alertlog/cmdlog -fmt tbl command on the CLI can result in XML parsing errors if the size of the log
is large. Use the GUI or the omreport system esmlog/alertlog/cmdlog CLI command to view the contents of the log.
For complex omcong CLI commands that contain multiple set commands in one command line, the CLI may report a success status
for the command even if a part of the command failed. To avoid this issue, run only one command per command line. The current
settings can be conrmed by performing the corresponding omreport command.
Some complex omcong CLI commands that contain multiple set operations have been modied to avoid the above problem. While
running a CLI command if the message, Error! Illegal combination of parameters is displayed, modify your command into several
simpler commands. Each command should change only one setting.
When running Server Administrator on a system with a traditional Chinese operating system, the application pages are displayed in
simplied Chinese. To view the Server Administrator pages in English, go to your browser language preference page and change the
language to English.
Log les saved from Server Administrator are saved in zip format. It is recommended that you open this zip le using WinZip. Windows
Server 2003 or Windows XP embedded Compressed (zipped) Folder utility is not recommended.
After conguring BIOS settings on certain systems, a second reboot may be required for the Server Administrator to display the
updated BIOS settings properly.
