Introduction

Overview

Dell™ OpenManage™ Server Administrator provides a powerful, integrated set of systems management applications for keeping the systems on your network healthy. Server Administrator provides fault management information, prefailure information, and asset and inventory information to management applications. In addition to supporting systems management industry standards, Server Administrator also provides additional systems management information about the components of your specific system. Server Administrator can also configure BIOS and system settings. Server Administrator's integrated security draws on the system's operating system security. Server Administrator uses the secure socket layer (SSL) encryption protocol.

NOTE: For more information on SSL, see the Dell Support website at

support.dell.com.

Server Administrator Services

Overview

Dell™ OpenManage™ Server Administrator has a modular architecture that allows you to select and install the functions most needed in your particular IT environment. The available services vary from one operating system to another. The following sections describe the contribution of each service to your systems management capabilities.

NOTE: See Table 1-1 for information on where you can find the systems

management software.

Descriptions of Server Administrator Services

Each service provides a functionally related set of systems management tasks that you can use to manage your system.

Instrumentation Service

The Instrumentation Service provides rapid access to detailed fault and performance information gathered by industry-standard systems management agents. The instrumentation service allows remote administration of monitored systems, including shutdown, start-up, and security.

Remote Access Service

The Remote Access Service provides a complete remote systems management solution for systems equipped with a remote access controller (RAC) solution. The Remote Access Service provides remote access to an inoperable system, allowing the system administrator to get the system up and running as quickly as possible. The Remote Access Service also provides alert notification when a system is down and allows the system administrator to restart a system remotely. Additionally, the Remote Access Service logs the probable cause of system crashes and saves the most recent crash screen.

Server Administrator Services 19

Storage Management Service

Express Setup installs the Storage Management Service (earlier known as the enhanced Storage Management Service) by default on Microsoft On Red Hat you can either install the Storage Management Service through the Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) or use the srvadmin-install.sh script — a menu driven script that installs the appropriate RPMs based on the options you choose.

NOTE: The Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating system provides drivers for some of

See the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator User's Guide for more information on Storage Management Service.

Windows®.

Logs

Server Administrator displays logs of commands issued to or by the system, monitored hardware events, POST events, and system alerts. You can view logs on the home page, print or save them as reports, and send them by e-mail to a designated service contact.

Available Services on Supported Operating Systems

Table 2-1 summarizes the services that are available for each supported operating system.

NOTE: See the Dell Systems Software Support Matrix on the Dell Support website

Systems Management Standards Availability

Overview

Dell™ OpenManage™ Server Administrator supports the following major systems management protocols:

• HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS)

• Common Information Model (CIM)

• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

NOTE: See Table 1-1 for information on where you can find the Server

Administrator application.

NOTE: See the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator readme file (packaged with

the Server Administrator application) as well as the Dell Support website at support.dell.com for information on SNMP security concerns. You must apply updates from your operating system's master SNMP agents to ensure that Dell's SNMP subagents are secure.

If your system supports SNMP, you must install and enable the service on your operating system. If SNMP services are available on your operating system, the Server Administrator installation program installs the supporting agents for SNMP.

NOTE: After you install SNMP, it must be enabled. For more information on enabling

SNMP-supported agents, see the Server Administrator User's Guide.

HTTPS is supported on all operating systems. Support for CIM and SNMP is operating system dependent and, in some cases, operating system-version dependent.

Availability on Supported Systems

On supported Microsoft® Windows® operating systems, Server Administrator supports two systems management standards: CIM/WMI and SNMP.

Systems Management Standards Availability 23

On supported Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® and SUSE® Linux Enterprise Server operating systems, Server Administrator supports the SNMP systems management standard.

Server Administrator adds considerable security to these systems management standards. All set operations for attributes (for example, changing the value of an asset tag) must be performed with Dell OpenManage IT Assistant while logged in with the required authority. As a result of the added security that IT Assistant offers for systems management, IT Assistant is the only management console that you can use to change attributes.

Server Administrator Supported Applications and Systems

This section provides information on instrumentation, applications, and systems that are supported by the systems management software.

NOTE: See Table 1-1 for information on where you can find the Server

Administrator application.

Version Number Information

All software supporting the Dell systems and Dell PowerVault™ appliances are delivered in Dell OpenManage stack releases that include the complete group of programs and that are fully tested for the supported platforms. An example is the Dell OpenManage 5.3.2 release of the Dell OpenManage software that supports most Dell systems from February 2002 through March

2008. The version of the software is significant. In this example, the first number (5) represents the major version number. You should upgrade your software any time Dell delivers a new major version. The second number (3) is the release number. A new release may have some minor features and fixes associated with it. You do not need to upgrade to the latest release unless that release is enabling your specific hardware or solving an issue you may be experiencing. You may skip releases as needed. The last number (2) is the hardware platform refresh number. This indicates that the software has been updated to support a new system. For example, if you have older systems running version 5.2.1, there is no need to upgrade to version 5.2.2 for a platform refresh.
