Bios update

Question

I noticed in the recent 2.3.1 bios release notes that it mentioned the following... 'Fixed possible system hang with Demand-Based Power Management enabled' Should I disable performance/power monitoring on my servers till this new update is applied?? or is this related to some other function? Thanks, Stuart. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ System: Dell(TM) PowerEdge(TM) 1950 Version: 2.3.1 Release Date: 05/23/2008 ______________________________________________________________________ * Added support for Quad-Rank 8GB DIMMs * Updated Intel(R) Memory Reference Code to revision 1.3.2 * Fixed possible system hang with Demand-Based Power Management enabled * Fixed slow memory test for some configurations * Fixed CPU error in Microsoft Windows Server 2008 operating system error log * Prevent downgrading to BIOS version that does not support the installed CPU or DIMM. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I would not worry about it unless you are seeing a specific issue related to this. Are your 1950's hanging for no apparent reason?

We have a bunch of 1950's and I'm not planning on updating to this BIOS for at least a few months.
