Linux Enterprise Server systems, you can either install the Storage Management Service through
the Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) or use the srvadmin-install.sh script — a menu driven

the "RAID Controller Supported Servers, Operating Systems, Firmware, and Driver Versions" section.
See the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator User's Guide for more information on Storage
Management Service.
