5. Known Issues
===================================================================================
Component
Description
Device Settings
When temperature settings are made on some thermal devices, there may be
some ‘round-off’ error of one tenth of a degree between what was requested and
what the device shows after the change. This is a known limitation of some
thermal device firmware versions and will be corrected in future versions of the
device controller firmware.

Component
Description
Liebert GXT3/4
UPS Support
The IP address of the Unity card may be displayed on the local display of the
Liebert GXT4 UPS unit. The IP address is pushed to the GXT4 when the card
starts up. If the address changes (for example, if it is changed by the DHCP
server when the DHCP lease runs out), the local GXT4 display will continue to
show the old address until the card is restarted.
While the SNMP OIDS for the GXT are backward compatible with those from the
IS-WEBCARD, the text values in some SNMP varbinds and email/SMS
notifications have changed slightly to use the Unity card equivalent.
The preferred way to change the display order for multiple sensors is through the
Web user interface. If the order is changed using one of the supported protocols
then the entire list of sensors should be set in the correct order (including slots
that should become blank) to ensure all sensors are still included.
Sensor order is not reflected in the SNMP flexible MIB until after the card is
rebooted. Reboot the card after setting the sensor order.
SNMP getnext requests may fail on some tables if there are multiple varbinds in
the request. If this occurs, use single-varbind requests.
When using a recent version of the Firefox browser, do not disable the “Accept
cookies from sites” option, and do not select the “Ask me every time” option for
how long to keep cookies. Either of these settings causes the web page to stall
on the initialization page.
