Upgrade The Lifecycle Controller is a service available on each of the servers and is facilitated by iDRAC. The Server Component Update page enables you to manage the firmware of the components and devices on the servers using the Lifecycle Controller service. The Lifecycle Controller uses an optimization algorithm to update the firmware in the most efficient manner that reduces the number of reboots. Before using the Lifecycle Controller based update feature, update the server firmware versions. Refer to the "Prerequisites" section for the proper version numbers. The modules should be updated in the following order: - BIOS - Lifecycle Controller - iDRAC6 NOTE: Before you update the server component firmware modules listed above, you must update CMC firmware. NOTE: To update firmware using Lifecycle Controller, iDRAC firmware must be of version 2.3 or greater. If manually updating firmware using Dell Update Packages (DUPs), the firmware should be updated in the following order: - BIOS - Lifecycle Controller - iDRAC6 NOTE: To update iDRAC firmware to 3.0 or greater from an iDRAC version less than 2.3, you must first update the iDRAC firmware to version 2.3 before updating to version 3.0 or greater. Open Issues and Resolutions Fixed Issues/def • Versions 6.0 and 7.0 of Mozilla Firefox Web Browser do not support IPv6 addresses. You must use URLs that contain a registered hostname to access a CMC or an iDRAC Server that has an IPv6 address. A CMC or an iDRAC Server that also has an IPv4 address is supported. • Non-English versions of the Online Help for power configuration pages incorrectly state that the required privilege for changing power configuration settings is "Chassis Control Administrator." The correct privilege is "Chassis Configuration Administrator." • • • • While using the command "racadm config -f" with: - CMC 3.21 or later versions of the firmware, make sure that the Remote RACADM client version 6.3.0 or later is installed. - CMC with an earlier version of 3.21 firmware, make sure that the Remote RACADM client version earlier than 6.3.0 is installed. The Remote RACADM testfeature command (racadm -rtestfeature ...) does not support the -d (debug) option. For Single Sign-On and Smart Card login, the client system must be a part of the Active Directory domain and Kerberos Realm. On Windows 7, clients under the Local Security Policies must make sure to configure the security option "Network security: Configure encryption types allowed for Kerberos." This policy setting allows you to set the encryption types that Kerberos is allowed to use. The DES_CBC_MD5 encryption type must be selected. If this encryption type is not selected, the encryption type will not be allowed. This setting may affect compatibility with client computers or services and applications. When you add a member chassis to a chassis group using the Multi-Chassis Management feature, you cannot specify the group members with an IPv6 address.
