NOTE: A MIB-II-compliant, SNMP-supported network management station
is required to compile and browse MIB files.
* OpenManage support for EFS (Encrypting File System)
To improve security, Microsoft provides the capability to encrypt files
using EFS (Encrypting File System). Please note that Server Administrator
will not function if its dependent files are encrypted.

NOTES FOR THE INSTRUMENTATION SERVICE
======================================================================
* On certain systems, user-defined thresholds set under Server
Administrator become the default thresholds after uninstalling
Server Administrator.
After you change the threshold value of a probe on certain systems
running Server Administrator and then uninstall Server Administrator,
the changed threshold value becomes the default threshold value.
* When modifying the warning threshold settings, the values are stored
in the firmware as discrete integer values and scaled for display.
If the modified value is not a discrete integer, it may change when
saved.
* Fan redundancy can have the following states:
Fully Redundant: The sensors display this status, if all the fans
in the system are present and are in a non-failure state.
OR
Redundancy Lost: The sensors display this status, whenever any
system fan fails or is removed from the chassis.
Additionally, on PowerEdge 6800, the sensors will report a fan
redundancy status of "Redundancy Lost" in the following scenarios:
- A power supply is removed and a power supply fan blank is not
inserted.
- A power supply fan blank is present but has failed.(134157)
* If a system with memory redundancy enabled enters a "redundancy
lost" state, it may not be apparent which memory module is the
cause. If you cannot determine which DIMM to replace, see the
"switch to spare memory detected" log entry in the ESM system
log to find the memory module that failed.
* If you run Server Administrator while the system is in "OS Install
Mode", memory may be reported incorrectly by Server Administrator.
To avoid this issue, you must disable "OS Install Mode" before
