Format Description:
Dell Update Packages (DUP) in Microsoft Windows 32bit format have been designed to run on Microsoft Windows 64bit Operating Systems. Dell Update Packages (DUP) in Microsoft Windows 64bit format will only run on Microsoft Windows 64bit Operating Systems. When selecting a device driver update be sure to select the one that is appropriate for your operating system.
1. When viewing SATA physical disk properties from Ctrl-R or other management applications, the Vendor Identification will be translated as "ATA" followed by blanks.
2. If all physical disks making up a virtual disk are removed from the system or enclosure, the RAID controller will delete the virtual disk. If the disks are later re-inserted, they will be marked foreign and can be imported using a management application.
3. If a virtual disk is configured with write-back cache enabled and some or all of its physical disks are removed from the system or enclosure, the RAID controller will preserve the virtual disk's write cache. The controller will flush the preserved cache when the physical disks are replaced and the foreign configuration is imported. Any attempt to update controller firmware will be blocked when cache is preserved for a virtual disk.
4. Physical disks determined to contain a foreign configuration are not available for configuration as a new dedicated or global hot spare, or as a member of a new virtual disk. The foreign configuration must be imported or cleared from the physical disk before it may be used as a hot spare or member of a virtual disk. Physical disks with a foreign configuration will not appear on the Create New VD screen in Ctrl-R.
5. Prior to performing a virtual disk migration to another system, the source system must be powered off before removal of the physical disks to preserve the correct virtual disk state. This is not required for the target system and the physical disks may be inserted while the system is powered on or off.
6. The controller restricts the importing of virtual disks that are undergoing RAID Level Migration or Capacity Expansion. Do not interrupt virtual disks that are performing either of these operations because it will disable the ability to import the virtual disk and the data will be unavailable. Dell recommends that the user perform a data backup before starting these operations.
7. EMM changes or drive migrations are not supported during a Capacity Expansion or Raid Level Migration. This may cause the VDs to go offline. Dell recommends the user to perform a data backup before starting these operations.
8. This version of firmware will not ensure complete compatibility with an older version of management applications. OpenManage 5.5 or greater is recommended.
9. It is recommended that the customer upgrade the management application and device driver to the latest version available from Dell at the time of installation of this firmware.
10. Important Information for Update Packages for Microsoft Windows
a. Do not run other applications while executing Dell Update Packages. b. Do not run storage controller update packages if the controller is in use by other applications. The firmware upgrade may fail if any of the RAID controllers in the system are performing I/O background tasks (consistency checks, background initializations, rebuilds, or reconstructions). Allow the background tasks to complete before attempting to upgrade the firmware. Patrol Read tasks will not affect firmware upgrades.
11. Important Information for Update Packages for Linux
a. Do not run other applications while executing Dell Update Packages. b. If the following error occurs, "Error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory", you must install the compatibility libraries. These libraries can be found on the installation media or online. To install the compatibility libraries, use the following commands: "rpm -ih compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3.-*.i386.rpm" for RHEL 4 or 5 "rpm -ih compat-libstdc++-5.0.7-*.x86_64.rpm" for SLES 10 c. When Update Packages stop abruptly due to a power outage or abnormal termination, perform the following steps: - Remove the lock file. - Type the following command: rm -f /var/lock/.spsetup - Run the Update Package again to reapply the update. d.
