50 Installing Server Administrator

Installing Server Administrator with Citrix

If you want to install Server Administrator with Citrix, you must perform the installation in the

following order:

Install the operating system using the

Installation and Server Management CD

NOTE: Do not install Server Administrator or other system management software, until you have installed the

Citrix software.

Install the Citrix software. See your Citrix documentation for complete information about installing

and configuring the Citrix software.

Install Server Administrator using the

Installation and Server Management CD

All applications (including Server Administrator) work fine if installed after installing Citrix.

Citrix remaps all your hard drive letters when installed.

For example, if you install Server Administrator on drive C: and then install Citrix, it will change your

drive letter C: to M:. This results in Server Administrator not working properly if you install Citrix after

installing Server Administrator. You can repair Server Administrator by typing msiexec.exe /fa

SysMgmt.msi

Considerations Before Installing Storage Management Service

The enhanced Storage Management Service and Array Manager are two separate storage management

product offerings. These products cannot be installed together; you can use one or the other to manage

your storage controllers. After installation, Array Manager is launched separately from the Server

Administrator. The enhanced Storage Management Service provides the same features as Array Manager

and is integrated with Server Administrator. The enhanced Storage Management Service is a

replacement for Array Manager.

The enhanced Storage Management Service is installed by default using Express Setup on systems that

do not have an existing installation of Array Manager. If Array Manager is already installed, then Express

Setup installs the latest version of Array Manager and the enhanced Storage Management Service is not

installed. You can use Custom Setup to install either Array Manager or the enhanced Storage

Management Service regardless of whether the system has an existing Array Manager installation or not.

If you install the enhanced Storage Management Service, any previous installation of Array Manager will

be uninstalled.

NOTE: Array Manager is not available if no previous Dell OpenManage systems management software (with Array

Manager installed) is detected. It is only available for upgrade. Support for Array Manager will be discontinued in a

future release. It is recommended that you switch to use Storage Management Service where applicable.
