systems that can only access one Dell OpenManage Server Administrator
component.
The drop-down menu is only functional when two or more Dell OpenManage Server
Administrator components are available on the managed system.

Due to the separation of the Server Administrator Web server from the
managed system, the following options will display only when you log in to
the Server Administrator Web server, using the Manage Web Server link:
• Web Server Preferences
• Session Management
• Web Server shutdown
• X.509 Certificate Management
These options will not be displayed when you log in to a remote system.
For more information on accessing these features, refer to 'Server
Administrator Services.'
To end your Server Administrator session, click Log Out on the "global
navigation bar." The Log Out button is located in the upper-right corner of
each Server Administrator home page.
NOTE: When you launch Server Administrator using Internet Explorer
®
version 7.0,
an intermediate warning page may appear displaying the problem with security
certificate. To ensure system security, it is strongly recommended that you generate
a new X.509 certificate, reuse an existing X.509 certificate, or import a root
certificate or certificate chain from a Certification Authority (CA). To avoid
encountering such warning messages about the certificate, the certificate used
must be from a trusted CA. For more information on X.509 Certificate Management,
see "X.509 Certificate Management."
