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

running Server Administrator.

* 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 4.5. These drivers

also ship with Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 4.5 and

version 5. It is expected that future Red Hat Enterprise Linux

version 4.5 and 5 Updates will continue to ship these drivers.

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.
