Trouble reverting SLOT NAMES to default in M1000e

Hi,

It seems that once we have ticked the box Use Host Name for the Slot Name (if available) on an m1000e chassis that the name shown on the Left Hand Side of the screen (Server Overview) remains that name even if the server is turned off.

Unchecking the Use Host Name box will revert the name to the Slot Name column. But if the box Use Host Name for the Slot Name (if available) is selected again and Applied, then the slot name will show as the old name of the powered off server.

In other words once the server name has been picked up by Use Host Name, it cannot get back to default (Slot 01 etc).

Resetting the drac, does not seem to have any affect either. Removing the blade and re-inserting it has no effect. The Slot Name stays as the name picked up from Use Host Name even though it is now powered off....(and even if a new Operating System has been installed (without OMSA))!!

How can this be changed so that the Slot Name goes to Default for a server when Powered Off?

Thx,

John Bradshaw
