Configuring the Active Directory Product Name

To configure the Active Directory product name:

1. Locate the omsaoem.ini file in the installation directory.

2. Edit the file to add the line adproductname=text, where text is the name of the product object that you

created in Active Directory. For example, the

omsaoem.ini file contains the following syntax if the Active Directory

product name is configured to omsaApp.

productname=Server Administrator

startmenu=Dell OpenManage Applications

autdbid=omsa

accessmask=3

adsupport=true

adproductname=omsaApp

3. Restart the Dell Systems Management Server Administrator (DSM SA) Connection Service after saving the

omsaoem.ini file.

Extending the Active Directory Schema

The schema extensions for RAC, Server Administrator, and IT Assistant are available. Extend the schema for software or

hardware that you are using. Apply each extension individually to receive the benefit of its software-specific settings.

Extending the Active Directory schema adds schema classes and attributes, example privileges and association objects,

and a Dell organizational unit to the schema.

NOTE: Before you extend the schema, you must have

Schema Admin

privileges on the Schema Master Flexible

Single Master Operation (FSMO) Role Owner of the domain forest.

Extend the schema using two different methods. Use the Dell Schema Extender utility, or use the Lightweight Directory

Interchange Format (LDIF) script file.

NOTE: The Dell organizational unit is not added if you use the LDIF script file.

The LDIF script files and the Dell Schema Extender utility are located in the following directories on the
