Installing Server Administrator 41

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

Dell

PowerEdge

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

Dell

PowerEdge

Installation and Server Management

CD.

All applications (including Server Administrator) work properly 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

Storage Management is integrated with Server Administrator. The Dell OpenManage Storage

Management is a replacement for Array Manager.

If you install the Storage Management Service 2.0, any previous installation of Storage Management

Service will be uninstalled.

PERC Console and FAST Compatibility Issues When Installing the Storage Management Service

Installing Storage Management on a system that has FAST or the PERC Console installed is an

unsupported configuration. In particular, you may find that the Storage Management Service or the

FAST features are disabled at run time when using the Storage Management Service on a system that

also has FAST installed. Therefore, it is recommended that you uninstall FAST and the PERC Console

before installing the Storage Management Service.

Dell OpenManage Storage Management replaces all storage management features provided by FAST

and the PERC Console. In addition, the Storage Management Service has features not provided by

FAST and the PERC Console.
