Release Notes

Issue 39:
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 40:
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
the 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.
Issue 41:

Guide or the Deploy Server Administrator white paper at
http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/extras/m/white_papers/20069180/download.aspx. If
