Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Updates, v.5.0.0 (492), A00

AUTO INSTALLED This file was automatically installed as part of a recent update. If you are experiencing any issues, you can manually download and reinstall.
This patch addresses a condition where Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Storage Management may generate an incorrect “battery replacement” message in the system event log and the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Alert log during initialization on the Dell PowerEdge 1850, 1950, 2850, 2900, 2950, 6800 and 6850 systems with a PERC 5/I or PERC 5/e controller. Depending on system configuration, the following battery replacement alert-- "2169: The Controller battery needs to be replaced: Battery 0 Controller n" (where n denotes the controller number)-- may erroneously appear even though the battery is OK and does not need to be replaced. A new erroneous alert may also be logged intermittently on a system reboot. Applying the patch resolves this issue.

Note: After applying the patch, you may need to refresh the Storage tree in Server Administrator to get storage information. There will be a slight delay in populating the Storage information.
