Monthly Specification Update Enterprise Platforms and Services Marketing 43. New versions of BMC firmware with previous versions of BIOS cause system POST failure Problem In systems updated with newer versions of only the BMC firmware, there is a high failure rate that they can no longer complete POST successfully. Implication Any BIOS/BMC/FRU update should adhere to the "SYSTEM FIRMWARE REQUIREMENTS" in the release notes, where the minimum required versions are listed. If the release notes recommendations are not followed, unexpected errors may occur. Status If the system is going to be updated by system firmware, always follow SFUP (System Firmware Update Package) to update the BIOS and BMC together. Always update the FRU after the hardware configuration changes (including changing the power supply, processor, and system fans). Workaround No. 44. Intel® Server System SR2500ALLX may operate louder than expected Problem The Intel® Server System SR2500ALLX may operate louder than expected. Implication The abnormal noise is caused by the two unbalanced 60-mm system fans #5 and #6. Using a FRUSDR, which is older than v41, also contributes to the faster fan speed and noise. Status FRUSDR v41 and later set the maximum fan speed to 75% of the original maximum value. This change lowers the fan noise and does not break the thermal condition design specification. Workaround None. 45. Red Hat* Enterprise Linux may report the wrong processor speed Problem In Red Hat* Enterprise Linux, the operating system may report the wrong processor speed. For example, if the processor is 3.0 GHz, the operating system shows it as 3300 MHz. Implication This symptom is operating system-related. Although it does not reflect the processor speed correctly, this is only a report; it is harmless to the system and you can ignore it. Status Ignore the processor speed in Red Hat* Enterprise Linux. Workaround None. 46. The SuSE* Linux Enterprise Server 10 driver for SAS HW RAID causes unwanted error logs during installation 21
