Hi Everyone, I have a Xen host (Xen 3.4.2) which is running CentOS 5.5 Dom0. I wish to install Dell OpenManage to get a nice web interface with hardware status. Do I need to do anything special to get this working on a Xen host? Or does it work out of the box? The reason why I''m asking, instead of trying, is that my server is currently on its way to a colo, and I won''t have

Has someone created a how to or a tutorial for installing/configuring DELL openmanage on centos ? --

Hi, I'm looking into purchasing a few Dell Servers and installing it with CentOS 4.1. It comes with this software called the the Dell OpenManage Software Kit for PowerEdge that allows for remote monitoring of the servers. Has anyone out there successfully installed the OpenManage s/ware? Is it compatible with CentOS 4.1? Any opinions / feedback is welcome. Thanks. Best Regards, Andrew

Hi all, I'm just trying to get Dell openmanage to run on my Centos 5.6 box. The monitoring stuff appears to have installed but the web server stuff is complaining it needs openwsman 2.2.3 or later and I can only find that for RHEL/Centos 6, not 5. Can anyone point me at a suitable rpm, or do I have to resort to compiling it? Surely I'm not the only one trying to do this. -- Kevin

I'm a fairly experienced RH and Fedora user and admin looking to try CentOS for the first time. I have lots of experience with Dell servers and I'd like to stick with them. Although I'm sure it's not always strictly enforced, Dell claims that it won't provide warranty hardware support on servers installed with an un-Dell-supported OS (basically, anything other Windows, RH, and

Hello, I just tried out XCP and I was surprised to see it looks pretty much like Xen from Citrix. Based on the RPM packages installed, I assume XCP is based on RHEL5. With that in mind, I have a few questions that I did not find an answer on the web... Perhaps I didn''t look in the right places, so if you know about any good documentations that I should read please share it :)

Hello folks, I''m sitting here converting my static, simple classes/snmp.pp into a full module, and I''ve run into a bit of a brick wall. net-snmp is one of those wonderful programs that will only read two configuration files (it reads a few more, but only 2 are in /etc) - /etc/snmpd.conf and /etc/snmpd.local.conf. This means that my SNMP module is somehow going to have to

we have several R900 servers with PERC 6/E card in it. Recently it we getting some message on /var/log/message say change to "write back" and change back to "write through". We figure out it is PERC 6/E card battery weak. My questions are: 1. some battery only use one year (some even shorter) and already this problem. 2. How come PERC 5/E does not have this issue? 3.

I have a Dell 1950 box on evaluation with 2 SATA drives connected to the on board Dell PERC 5/i with the disks set up as a mirror I've installed CentOS4.4 (x86_64) on the system and now I'm trying to install/configure/use the Dell OpenManage tools that came on a CD with the system. I've installed the tools using the provided install script and they appeared to install OK.

We're looking for tools to be used in monitoring the PERC H800 arrays on a set of database servers running CentOS 5.5. We've installed most of the OMSA (Dell monitoring) suite. Our current alerting is happening through SNMP, though it's a bit hit or miss (we apparently missed a couple of earlier predictive failure alerts on one drive). OMSA conflicts with mega-cli, though we may

Hi List; I just got a new server (my first **real** server). It's a dell 2900 : quad core XEON (with a spare slot for a 2nd quad core chip) 8G memory (expandable to 64G) 8 hot swap SATA HD slots onboard PERC6i RAID controller etc I initially setup the system / RAID as follows: 1) booted off the dell setup CD 2) walked through the RAID setup and formatted the drives 3) the setup bombed

Hi all, I have a server which is really difficult to restart because of usage requirements and the fact that it's in a co-lo rack so miles away. I've added a couple of drives which I'd like to bring up and add to LVM but the config I know is in the PERC BIOS and requires a reboot. Can the config be changed in the openmanage suite and if so can someone point me in the right

Hello All, How do I specify a variable that has a space in it? I''m trying to setup a yum repo that has two different baseurl''s based on the product name ($productname). Default goes one way, but if the product is "PowerEdge 2650" then is a different URL. The thing is, that is only picking up the default. How should I specify the value with the space in the

Hi Does anyone have experience of running CentOS on HP hardware, both rack mount kit and blades? How are things like hardware monitoring etc? We may be moving from Dell to HP and i get on really well with OMSA and Nagios etc so ideally would like to monitor using similar tools rather than some central 'enterprise' dashboard etc. Any real world experience? thanks

I upgrade our infrastructure (mostly RHEL5, some RHEL6) from 3.1 to puppet-3.2.1-1.el5. Ruby sits at ruby-1.8.7.370-1.el5. I ran some tests and everything seemed good so I pushed it out. Since then, all my puppet clients are failing with this: Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: undefined method `[]'' for nil:NilClass at

Dear ML We upgraded a Dell Poweredge PE 1950 Server the 8th of May. Since then the server rebooted 3 times without external cause (it is located in a server farm with redundant power supply etc.). Looking at the servers monitoring infrastructure with Dell's own OpenManage tools, I get strange errors: [root at servernew ~]# omreport system esmlog (....) Severity : Critical Date

Hello CentOS List, I have a server that has SysV script supplied by a hardware manufacturer, which is not functioning properly. From my reading, systemd-sysv-generator should handle them (like it did for Dell OpenManage software which supplied SysV init scripts). /usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-sysv-generator Takes no or 3 arguments (it tells me), but I didn't find clear
