SBE versionThe known issue is applied for the following SBE versions:

  • ThinkAgileMXPremier: 4.1.2501.1201

  • ThinkAgileMXStandard: 4.1.2503.1002

Issue Description:This is a Microsoft known issue documented here: https://github.com/Azure/AzureLocal-Supportability/blob/main/TSG/Update/OS-update-automatically-set-to-run-on-3rd-Tuesday-following-SBE-update.md
Root cause:

Prior to the 2505 release of Azure Local, the Solution Builder Extension (SBE) automation will remove the CauPluginName property from the CauClusterRole because the SBE uses a "custom" CAU plugin using the following syntax: Set-CauClusterRole -CauPluginName $null -Force

This was previously considered a best practice (to remove traces of custom plugins that shouldn't be used outside of SBE updates). However, it had the unintended effect of adding the DaysOfWeek and WeeksOfMonth attributes to the CauClusterRole. This occurred because any call to Set-CauClusterRole will add those settings by default.

Workaround:For immediate mitigation, please follow the recommended instructions from Microsoft: https://github.com/Azure/AzureLocal-Supportability/blob/main/TSG/Update/OS-update-automatically-set-to-run-on-3rd-Tuesday-following-SBE-update.md#mitigation-details
Fix:

The dependency on Set-CauClusterRole has been removed in Standard package 4.1.2505.1065 and Premier package 4.1.2505.1070

SBE CAU run fails if QAT utility driver is missing

SBE versionThe known issue is applied for the following SBE versions:

  • ThinkAgileMXPremier: 4.1.2501.1201

  • ThinkAgileMXStandard: 4.1.2503.1002

Issue Description:SBE CAU fails On Intel Chipset update when missing QAT utility installation on MX650 V3/630 V3

Root cause:When customers re-image their servers on their own after receiving them from our factories, the systems will be missing necessary device drivers, notably the Intel QAT utility, that are built into the Lenovo OEM image with which our servers are shipped.
Workaround:If your Lenovo ThinkAgile MX servers were re-imaged and no longer contain the Lenovo OEM factory image, please manually install the QAT utility (intc-lnvgy_utl_chipset_inteldp.*.qat-*-*_windows_indiv) from our latest Best Recipe (https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/solutions/ht515442) before proceeding with SBE Updates.
Fix:This is working as designed for Lenovo ThinkAgile MX solutions that are shipped with the Lenovo OEM factory image.
