Co-existence of Server Administrator and iDRAC
Service Module
In a system, both Server Administrator and the iDRAC Service Module can co-exist. If you enable the monitoring features during the
iDRAC Service Module installation, after the installation is complete, if the iDRAC Service Module detects the presence of Server
Administrator, iDRAC Service Module disables the set of monitoring features that overlap. The iDRAC Service Module keeps polling Server
Administrator and its features. At any time if the Server Administrator service stops, the respective iDRAC Service Module feature is
enabled.
