Installation manual

20 Preinstallation Setup
• Domain Name System (DNS) or Windows Internet Name Service
(WINS) server running on your system can cause a warning condition for
RAC software. See the relevant section in Server Administrator readme for
more information.
• Do not install managed system and management station RAC components
on the same system. Install only the managed system RAC components, as
they offer the required functionality.
Common causes for a return code of 3 (failure) from the prerequisite checker:
• You are not logged in with built-in Administrator privileges.
• The MSI package is corrupt or one of the required XML files is corrupt.
• Error during copying from a DVD or network access problems while
copying from a network share.
• Prerequisite checker detects that another MSI package installation is
currently running or that a reboot is pending:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\Windows\Current
Version\Installer\InProgress
indicates another MSI package installation is in
progress.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\
\Session Manager\\PendingFileRenameOperations
indicates that a
reboot is pending.
• Running the 64-bit version of Windows Server 2008 Core, since certain
components are disabled from being installed.
Ensure that any error or warning is corrected before you proceed to install
Dell OpenManage software components.
Each software has an associated value set after running the prerequisite check.
