NOTE: If the DRAC Console Launch gives you a "Page cannot be
displayed" error, ensure that there is network connectivity from
the DRAC card, and that the DRAC is configured with a valid IP
address.
NOTE: If tooltips are not populated for Dell Servers, ensure the CIM
Dell namespace is not corrupted and Dell Services are not down.
Restart the Dell managed node or Re-install Server Administrator
to correct the CIM behavior.

MOM Management Console Requirements
======================================================================
* Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM) 2005 with Service Pack 1 must be
installed and running.
* MOM agent software must be installed on all Dell-managed systems
either remotely from the management station or manually on the
managed system.
* For discovered systems to be recognized as Dell devices in the MOM
environment, Server Administrator 1.6-5.0 must be installed on all
Dell-managed systems.
* The "MOM Management Server Action Account" must have local Admin
privileges on all the agent-managed systems.
* To run remote power control or LED Identification control tasks on
Dell-managed systems, BMC Management Utility 2.0 must be installed on the
Management Server. BMC Management Utility 2.0 is available on the
Dell OpenManage 5.0 "System Management Consoles" CD.
NOTE: When Usernames, passwords or KGKeys for the BMC are changed, the
BMC login details of the corresponding server should also be
manually updated in the
"Individual_BMC_Authentication_Credentials" section of the
"%Management_Group_Name%_bmcServers.xml" file, which is present
in the ipmish binary directory on the management server.
By default, individual BMC username, password, and KGKey will
be used by the Remote power control and LED Identification
control tasks. Global BMC Authentication Credentials are
disabled when either BMC_UserName or BMC_Password or
BMC_KGKey of the Global Credential section is set to -1 in the
XML file.
For enabling the use of Global BMC Authentication Credentials
(that is, one global BMC_UserName, BMC_Password, and BMC_KGKey
for BMCs of all Dell systems), replace the -1 value with the
exact login credentials for the BMC_UserName, BMC_Password, and
BMC_KGKey in the Global BMC Authentication Credentials Section.
