Important Information for Update Packages for Microsoft Windows
###############################################################
* Do not run other applications while executing Dell Update Packages.
* When upgrading the BMC/ESM firmware or the BP firmware on PowerEdge
x8xx or x9xx servers with the Windows Server 2003 R2 IPMI driver
installed, the update may take up to 20 minutes to complete.
To speed up the time it takes to perform such updates on PowerEdge
x8xx or x9xx servers, you can uninstall the R2 IPMI driver before
performing the firmware upgrade operation using the command "rundll32
ipmisetp.dll, RemoveTheDevice" from a command prompt. After the
firmware flash is complete, you can install the driver again by
executing the command "rundll32 ipmisetp.dll, AddTheDevice". On
PowerEdge x9xx servers, the driver can be re-installed by performing a
"Scan for hardware changes" in the Device Manager.
* When upgrading the BMC/ESM firmware on PowerEdge x8xx or x9xx
servers with the Windows Server 2003 R2 IPMI driver installed,
multiple time-out warning messages from source "IPMIDRV" with Event ID
1004 are logged in the System Log in the Event Viewer console.
These messages can be safely ignored. However, to prevent the messages
from being logged, you can uninstall the R2 IPMI driver before
performing the firmware upgrade operation using the command "rundll32
ipmisetp.dll, RemoveTheDevice" from a command prompt. After the
firmware flash is complete, you can install the driver again by
executing the command "rundll32 ipmisetp.dll, AddTheDevice". On
PowerEdge x9xx servers, the driver can be re-installed by performing a
"Scan for hardware changes" in the Device Manager.
For more information on this issue, including information on the cause
of this issue, see the Microsoft KB article number 912596.

* Do not run other applications while executing Dell Update Packages.
* If the following error occurs, "Error while loading shared
libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory", you must install the compatibility libraries from
"www.redhat.com" or from the Red Hat CD. To install the compatibility
libraries, use the following command: "RPM -ih
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386.rpm"
* Dell Update Packages for BMC, BP, ESM, and DRAC5 require the
OpenIPMI driver to be loaded on your system. The current drivers can
be downloaded from the Dell Support website at "support.dell.com".
