FIXES: 
- Fixes issue where all user requests to connect to Blade PCs are denied for 
one to two hours when a synchronization operation is performed from the HP SAM 
Web server. During this synchronization activity, the HP SAM SQL database grows 
excessively and the SAM SQL server CPU runs at 100% usage. 

- Fixes issue where Blade PC usage data is inaccurately captured, resulting in 
incorrect Resource Capacity Consumption and Resource Capacity Consumption Trend 
reports. 

- Fixes issue where an occasional "user disconnected" message is falsely logged 
when a user connects to the Blade PC for the first time.

- Fixes issue where duplicate entries for a single Blade PC are displayed on 
the Resource tab. When this issue occurs, one entry shows the Blade PC as 
"Offline." This issue typically occurs when a Blade PC is moved from one 
enclosure to another. Once this upgrade is successfully installed on all Blade 
PCs, all "Offline" resources listed on the Administrator Console\Resource tab 
should be deleted.

- Fixes intermittent issue where Blade PC resources that are shut down or being 
rebooted are shown as "Available."

- Fixes issue where the error message, "Your account cannot be assigned to any 
existing user roles," is generated when a user account is added to HP SAM 
through Active Directory nested level security groups.

- Fixes issue where the serial ports cannot be used when "Redirect Drives" in 
the Administrator Console\Policies is set to the Force Off value.

- Fixes issue where the HP SAM Administrator console displays log-on errors 
when the HP SAM server is registered in DNS with a NetBIOS name that is 
different from its Domain Name.

- Fixes issue where it is not possible to connect to a Blade PC when the Blade 
PC is registered in DNS with a NetBIOS name that is different from its Domain 
Name.
