Hi,

I also noticed your issue. Can you also test your configuration 
with a stable version? I wonder if you can provide some detailed
information about the model of your DELL Server and the version
of firmware.

It would be nice if you can provide your configuration so I can 
test it in my environment.

Cheers,

Miao Wang
