PowerEdge™ M905 and M805 Blades –
Dell™ OpenManage™ Version Requirements
The PowerEdge M905 and M805 blades require OpenManage systems
management software version 5.4.3 or later.
NOTE: OpenManage version 5.4.3 does not support PowerEdge M600 or M605
blades.
PowerEdge M905 and M805 Blades –
CMC Firmware Requirements
PowerEdge M905 and M805 blades require CMC firmware version 1.2 or
later. If you add these blades to an M1000e enclosure with CMC firmware
older than version 1.2, the new blade will not power on.
NOTE: See the latest Dell Chassis Management Controller User's Guide at
support.dell.com for complete instructions on how to configure and operate
the CMC module.
Updating the CMC Firmware
Downloading the CMC Firmware
Before beginning the firmware update, download the latest firmware version
from the support.dell.com website, and save it to your local system.
The following software components are included with your CMC firmware
package:
•Compiled CMC firmware code and data
•Web-based interface, JPEG, and other user interface data files
•Default configuration files
Use the Firmware Update page to update the CMC firmware to the latest
revision.
NOTE: See the latest Dell Chassis Management Controller User's Guide at
support.dell.com for complete instructions on how to configure and operate
the CMC module.
NOTE: The firmware update, by default, will retain the current CMC settings.
During the update process, you have the option to reset the CMC configuration
settings back to the factory default settings.
Information Update3
Updating Firmware in a Redundant CMC Configuration
NOTICE: In a redundant CMC configuration, you must update CMC firmware on
both modules. Failure to do so may cause unexpected behavior during a CMC
failover or failback. Use the following procedure for redundant CMC deployments.
1
Locate the secondary or standby CMC by using the RACADM
command, or by using the
interface
.
The status indicator will be solid blue on the primary or active
Chassis Summary
page in the Web-based
CMC module and off on the standby or secondary CMC.
2
Update the firmware on the standby CMC first. See "Updating the CMC
Firmware Using the Web-based Interface" or "Updating the CMC
Firmware Using RACADM".

PowerEdge M905 and M805 Blades –
Memory Sparing Requirements
The following information updates the memory sparing subsections in your
Hardware Owner’s Manual and these blades’ system information labels.
PowerEdge M905
Memory sparing is supported if 24 identical memory modules (DIMMs)
are installed.
PowerEdge M805
Memory sparing is supported if 16 identical memory modules are installed.
Information Update5
New Mezzanine Cards
Your blade now supports the following additional mezzanine cards:
•Broadcom 57710 10Gb Ethernet card
•Emulex LPe1205-M FC8 card
•QLogic QME2572 FC8 card
NOTE: CMC firmware version 1.3 is required to support FC8 mezzanine cards
and I/O modules.
For information on installing a mezzanine card, see "Installing System
Components" in your Hardware Owner’s Manual. For detailed information
on configuring a particular card, see the card’s documentation on
support.dell.com.
New I/O Modules
Your system now supports the following I/O modules:
NOTE: CMC firmware version 1.3 is required to support FC8 mezzanine cards
and I/O modules.
These modules are hot-pluggable, and may be installed in Fabric B or
Fabric C. (The M8024 Ethernet switch module may also be installed in
Fabric A, but will only operate at 1 Gb in this Fabric.) For general information
on installing I/O modules, see "I/O Modules" in your Hardware Owner’s Manual.
The PowerConnect M8024 switch module incorporates two option bays
that support the following modules:
•A 10 Gb Ethernet module with four optical SFP+ connectors
•A 10 Gb Ethernet module with three copper CX4 uplinks
The modules can be used in any combination and are sold separately.
You can initially configure the switch using either of two methods:
•Connect an external management system to the switch using an optional
USB type-A form factor serial cable, and configure the switch using a
terminal application.
•Use the iKVM CMC console ("17th blade") and the
CMC CLI command. For more information, see the CMC user’s guide.
Once an IP address is assigned to the management VLAN or interface and
the switch is connected to a management network, both Telnet and http
are available through the network.

Channel ports (four ports are enabled in the standard configuration and four
additional ports may be enabled as an optional upgrade), 16 internal ports,
and one serial port with an RJ-45 connector. The external Fibre Channel ports
operate at 8 Gb/sec, 4 Gb/sec, or 2 Gb/sec.
NOTE: CMC firmware version 1.3 is required to support FC8 mezzanine cards and
I/O modules.
NOTE: This Fibre Channel switch module includes Short Wave Small Form Factor
Pluggable (SFP) optical transceivers. To ensure proper functionality, use only SFPs
provided with this module.

Configuration de Dell™ OpenManage™ pour
les serveurs lames PowerEdge™ M905 et M805
Les serveurs lames PowerEdge M905 et M805 requièrent le logiciel de gestion
de systèmes OpenManage 5.4.3 ou version ultérieure.
REMARQUE : OpenManage version 5.4.3 ne prend pas en charge les serveurs
lames PowerEdge M600 et M605.
Micrologiciel CMC requis pour les serveurs
lames PowerEdge M905 et M805
Les serveurs lames PowerEdge M905 et M805 requièrent le micrologiciel
CMC 1.2 ou version ultérieure. Si vous installez ces serveurs lames dans
une baie M1000e et utilisez une version du micrologiciel CMC antérieure
à la version 1.2, ils ne démarreront pas.
REMARQUE : Pour des instructions complètes concernant la configuration et
l'utilisation du module CMC, reportez-vous au document Dell Chassis Management Controller User's Guide (Contrôleur de gestion de châssis Dell - Guide d'utilisation)
le plus récent disponible sur le site support.dell.com.
Mise à jour du micrologiciel CMC
Téléchargement du micrologiciel CMC
Avant de procéder à la mise à jour du micrologiciel, téléchargez-en la dernière
version à partir du site support.dell.com et enregistrez-la sur le système local.
Le package du micrologiciel CMC se compose des éléments suivants :
•Code compilé et données du micrologiciel CMC
•Fichiers de données de l'interface Web, JPEG et des autres interfaces
utilisateur
•Fichiers de configuration par défaut
Mise à jour des informations27
Pour installer la dernière version du micrologiciel CMC, accédez à la page
Firmware Update (Mise à jour du micrologiciel).
REMARQUE : Pour des instructions complètes concernant la configuration et
l'utilisation du module CMC, reportez-vous au document Dell Chassis Management Controller User's Guide (Contrôleur de gestion de châssis Dell - Guide d'utilisation)
le plus récent disponible sur le site support.dell.com.
REMARQUE : Par défaut, la mise à jour du micrologiciel ne modifie pas les
paramètres courants du module CMC. Au cours de la mise à jour, vous pouvez
réinitialiser les paramètres de configuration du module CMC afin de rétablir les
valeurs par défaut définies en usine.
Mise à jour du micrologiciel dans une configuration composée de modules CMC
redondants
AVIS : Dans une configuration de modules CMC redondants, vous devez mettre
à jour le micrologiciel CMC des deux modules. Sinon, le système risque de se
comporter de façon imprévisible lors d'un basculement ou d'une restauration
impliquant les modules CMC. Pour les déploiements de modules CMC redondants,
procédez comme suit :
1
Identifiez le module CMC secondaire (de secours) à l'aide de la
commande RACADM
(Récapitulatif du châssis) de l'interface Web
getsysinfo
ou de la page
.
Le voyant d'état du
Chassis Summary
module CMC principal ou actif est bleu fixe, tandis que celui du module
de secours ou d'attente est éteint.
2
Mettez tout d'abord le micrologiciel à jour sur le module CMC de secours.
Voir les sections “Mise à jour du micrologiciel du module CMC via
l'interface Web” ou “Mise à jour du micrologiciel du module CMC à l'aide
de RACADM”.
3
Vérifiez que le module de secours exécute la version du micrologiciel
requise. Pour ce faire, vous pouvez utiliser la commande
getsysinfo
ou
l'interface Web.
4
Après le redémarrage du module CMC secondaire, mettez le micrologiciel
à jour sur le module CMC principal (actif). Patientez environ 10 minutes
pour que le démarrage du module CMC de secours soit entièrement
terminé.
Voir les sections “Mise à jour du micrologiciel du module CMC via
l'interface Web” ou “Mise à jour du micrologiciel du module CMC à l'aide
de RACADM”.
