This change disables the button after any action, and re-enables the button after any power-control action completes. - Fixed: Embedded Web Server Remote Control Page - Message is not consistent across all pages for a User with USER privilege. - Embedded Web Server Remote Control Page: Remote KVM is not available except to users with ADMIN or better privileges. The informational message was not consistent across all pages for a User connected with USER privilege. Logging into the EWS with a non-admin user, and attempting to open an Remote KVM window, will now redirect to a page explaining this. The help page has also been updated with this information. - Fixed: KVM - Help Button - About "Jviewer" copyright statement is wrong. - The copyright date presented by JViewer in the Help->About interaction should now show copyright 2011 rather than 2005. - Fixed: Embedded Web Console: Node Manager page hard shutdown does not seem to be a hard shutdown. - According to the Node Manager documentation, a hard shutdown is used but NM actually attempts a graceful shutdown first, only performing the hard shutdown if the graceful shutdown stalls for 30 seconds. The Embedded Web Server description and help page should correctly indicate that this is the expected behavior. - Fixed: Get Chassis Status command identify LED with wrong status - The Get Chassis Status command was not returning the correct "Identification LED" status. - Fixed: Fans stay boosted after BMC force update followed by SDR update - Fans should no longer boost after updating the SDR after a forced FW update. - Fixed: Empty or Unconfigured HDD will continuously report faulty or assert/deassert - Fixes an issue where a system with ESRTII RAID 5, configured with three HDDs and a fourth installed but set either unconfigured or global-hot-spare, would generate numerous spurious drive fault errors to the System Event Log. - Fixed: Firmware hang if BMC is crashed one time and BMC cold reset is executed 3 times after a crash within 30 minutes. - Fixed: There is a typo error in BMC WebUI help document for "Alert Email" sub-menu - Added: Adds new de-pop PBA (G49054-XXX) for S2600JF.
