The Deploying Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Solution 61
The Server Administrator package is created in the default, shared library
folder. You can access this package from Manage All Resources.
Deploying Server Administrator Task
Software update involves creating a Software Update task and deploying
the Server Administrator agent on the managed system.
Before you deploy OpenManage Server Administrator, you must ensure that
the Altiris Agent is installed on the managed system. To install Altiris Agent
on the managed system, see Pushing Altiris Agent to Managed Nodes.
Dell Management Console requires Server Administrator to be installed on
Dell systems to manage them. Use the Software Update task to install or
upgrade to Server Administrator version 5.3 or later.
NOTE: You can use this task to upgrade only if you have Server Administrator
version 4.3 or later already installed on the target system.
