* If you have to uninstall and reinstall the operating system SNMP
service, then reinstall Server Administrator as well, so that the
Server Administrator SNMP agents are registered with the operating
system SNMP agent.
* Server Administrator Device Drivers for Linux
Server Administrator includes two device drivers for Linux: Dell
Systems Management Base Driver (dcdbas) and Dell BIOS Update Driver
(dell_rbu). Server Administrator uses these drivers to perform its
systems management functions. Depending on the system, Server
Administrator loads one or both of these drivers if required.
These drivers have been released as open source under the GNU
General Public License v2.0. They are available in Linux kernels
from kernel.org starting with kernel 2.6.14.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux:
Server Administrator provides precompiled dcdbas and dell_rbu
modules for Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 3 and 4. These
drivers are expected to ship with future Red Hat Enterprise Linux
version 3 and 4 Updates.
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server:
These drivers ship with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server version 9
Service Pack 3 (SP3) and version 10. It is expected that future
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server version 9 and 10 Service Packs will
continue to ship these drivers.
If the drivers are available with the operating system, Server
Administrator will use those versions of the drivers. If the
drivers are not available with the operating system, Server
Administrator will use its precompiled modules on Red Hat
Enterprise Linux version 3 and 4. If precompiled drivers are not
available with the operating system or Server Administrator,
Server Administrator uses its Dynamic Kernel Support (DKS) feature
to build the drivers when needed. See the "Dell OpenManage
Installation and Security User's Guide" for more information about
DKS.
