PowerEdge servers crash with PCIe fatal errors while updating Kioxia CM6 NVMe drive firmware.

CPUs can be perceived to be hot while server is idle.

iDRAC Service Module (iSM) 5.4 and older versions fail to upload SupportAssist collections back to Dell. A "handshake API" error occurs. This upload feature has been deprecated due to the receiving servers at Dell had been decommissioned.

Following the initial setup, the Intel Infrastructure Processing Unit (IPU) is unable to ping networks beyond its local network.

Multiple SKHynix NVMe (PS1010) drives in the same server experienced PCIe link training failures during the deployment phase, resulting in the drives entering read-only mode.

This is seen when using direct attached storage with an Emulex LPe35002-M2-D and Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the server fails to boot.

Updating 16G PowerEdge Server BIOS may result in Secure Boot database updates.

When trying to register or de-register Alert Connector, PFxM UI shows error (500) or (VXFM0004)

Dell Samsung Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) PM1653 and PM1655 solid state drives may report excessive Sense Key faults 0x3, 0x11, 0x0, or 0x4, 0x29, 0x4. These faults have the potential to cause unexpected drive issues.

After an update to 7.00.00.00 or higher, the iDRAC9 web server may become inaccessible where the user has uploaded a custom or CA signed web certificate.

This article contains the initial steps to take on all PowerFlex performance-based issues when observing performance degradation, low Input Output Operations Per Second (IOPs), low MB per sec, or high latency.

The iDRAC is unable to connect to a Server Message Block (SMB) share when the optional "SMB3 share encryption" is enabled.

Article outlines symptoms where PowerFlex nodes report “Non‑Volatile Dual Inline memory module (NVDIMM) battery not ready” during boot, after outage, or on install, caused by batteries left uncharged.

User has one node in the system where the NVDIMM battery status reports as 'Unknown' but that is not one of the three options listed for the status.

PowerFlex components such as the MDM are disconnecting and reconnecting quickly and frequently. Lost connection followed by connected found in MDM events Connecting after 80-190ms

How to clear device errors on Dell PowerFlex using Presentation Server

In SLES15, the service name was changed to "sdc", from the commonly used service name "scini".

Attempting to upgrade the PowerFlex Production or MDS Gateway resource fails stating that it could not connect to LIA on a specific IP address.

PowerFlex versions 3.0.1.6, 3.5.1.4, and 3.6.0.2 and lower have a bug that causes the rotation mechanism of the eventlog.db file to not work at all, which causes a continuous increase in the file size.

PowerEdge 16G BOSS N1; logs VLT0204 (BOSS CPLD voltage out of range) or VLT0205 on PowerEdge T160/R360/T360/R260 platforms running Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) version 1.4.0. PowerEdge R660 and R760 platforms running CPLD versions v1.2.6 will not log any voltage out of range warnings in the LC or SEL logs.

This article describes the basic steps required to collect support data from a Kubernetes-based PowerFlex Manager Platform (PFMP) system and the PFMP installer. Support data is collected using a standalone, single-file utility, pfmp_support. As such, the utility's executable can be copied to and run on the host from which support data is to be collected. Using this utility does not require a functioning PFMP. As such, support data can be collected during PFMP installation or when the PFMP UI is inaccessible.
