If OpenManage Server Administrator is running, the iDRAC Service Module disables the overlapping monitoring features after logging to
the OS and iDRAC.
When you re-enable these monitoring features through the iDRAC interfaces later, the same checks are performed and the features are
enabled depending on whether OpenManage Server Administrator is running or not.
