Upgrade Scenarios
Based on your existing installation from previous Dell OpenManage versions
and the option selected during upgrade, you can upgrade Server
Administrator Web Server, Server Instrumentation, or both selectively.
NOTE: In the system where you run the IT Assistant user interface from, the Java
Runtime Environment (JRE) should have at least 384 MB of free space for the JRE
memory (heap memory). This memory requirement is recommended for IT Assistant
to download the MSI file that contains the Dell agent. The MSI file size is typically in
the range of 60–64 MB.
