Hi,
OM6.4.0 (which will be released very soon) will have the fix for this issue.
Thanks,
Mohan

Subject: OMSA bug with new H700 controller firmware


Hi,

OMSA has issues with the latest firmware for H700 controllers. There seems to 
be a bug related to parsing the version numbers, which in turn makes OMSA 
complain about the firmware being too old:

  # omreport storage controller
   Controller  PERC H700 Integrated (Embedded)

(Output from a brand new R710 running RHEL5.5 and OMSA 6.3.0).

I'm hoping that the Dell engineers are already aware of this. Can we expect an 
update to OMSA 6.3.0 that fixes this, or will we have to wait until 6.4.0 is 
released?
