About Cautions

A CAUTION indicates a potential for property damage, personal injury, or death.

Information Update

SUSE

®

Linux Enterprise Server 9

Installation Notes

SATA optical disk drives are not supported by SUSE Linux Enterprise
Server 9 SP3. The following error messages may appear when attempting
to install the operating system from a SATA optical drive:

cannot read media

device not mounted

To resolve this issue, install the operating system from the network
(using the NIC1 connector), or from an external USB optical drive.

System Setup Program Update

On the CPU Information screen of the System Setup Program, the default
setting for the Demand-Based Power Management option is Enabled.

SAS RAID Controller Fan Update

Your system supports an external-storage SAS RAID controller that does not
require a PCI cooling fan, contrary to the information stated in your system
user documentation. A PCI fan is required only for the external-storage SAS
RAID controller that has a RAID battery connector on the card. See the user
documentation for your SAS RAID device for more information.

If you ordered an external-storage SAS RAID controller that requires the PCI
fan, the fan was included in the installation kit. If no fan was included with
your kit, the fan is not required for that controller.
