Release Notes

Issue 28:

Description

When creating a Command Line task and selecting Remote Server Administrator command for a Linux

target using a command other than omreport and omconfig, the task status indicates the task as

completed and displays a green status . This occurs because the Remote Server Administrator command

supports omreport and omconfig commands.

Resolution:

While creating a Remote Server Administrator command, make sure to use only omreport and omconfig

commands for the task to return correct data. You can get the complete list of these commands at

support.dell.com.

Issue 29:

Description

If you select an MSP package to update major versions of OpenManage Server Administrator, (for

example, version 6.x to version 7.x) the task displays the status as successful and the details indicate that

software update is complete. However you can notice that the update was never completed. This occurs

because the MSP is only supported while updating minor versions. For example, 6.3 to 6.5 or 7.0 to 7.1.

For more information about the valid packages that can be used to update OpenManage Server

Administrator, see OpenManage Server Administrator User’s Guide available at dell.com/support/manuals.

Resolution:

While updating major versions of OpenManage Server Administrator make sure that the MSI package is

used.
