Some features and functionalities, such as flashing the firmware, personality management, profile management, managing SAS storage link speed, managing PCIe lane speed, and so on, may require server reboot for the changes to take effect.

In case of VMware, for the previously mentioned functionalities, you must follow these instructions:

  1. Log out from the LSA client.

  2. Reboot the VMware server.

  3. When the VMware server comes up, log in again to check whether the changes have taken effect.

Note:

In cases where logout and reboot are required for certain functionalities as mentioned previously, you will be notified through message: Please Logout and Re-login to the server once Reboot is complete.
