Installation manual
4. Select Custom Setup and choose all the features that were originally installed. If you are not sure which features
were installed, select all of them and perform the installation.

What do I do when the creation of WinRM listener fails with the following error message?
The CertificateThumbprint property must be empty when the SSL configuration
will be shared with another service
This error occurs when the Internet Information Server (IIS) is already installed and configured for HTTPS
communication. Details about coexistence of IIS and WinRM is available at technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/
cc782312.aspx.
In this case, use the following command to create a HTTPS Listener with the CertificateThumbprint empty:
winrm create winrm/config/Listener?Address=*+Transport=HTTPS
@{Hostname="<host_name>";CertificateThumbprint=""}
What are the firewall-related configuration that needs to be done for WinRM?
With firewall turned ON, WinRM must be added to the firewall exclusion list to allow TCP port 443 for HTTPS traffic.
When launching the Dell OpenManage Install, an error message may display, stating a
failure to load a specific library, a denial of access, or an initialization error. An example of
installation failure during Dell OpenManage Install is "failed to load OMIL32.DLL." What do
I do?
This is most likely due to insufficient Component Object Model (COM) permissions on the system. To remedy this
situation, see the article support.installshield.com/kb/view.asp?articleid=Q104986
The Dell OpenManage Install may also fail if a previous installation of Dell OpenManage systems management software
or some other software product was unsuccessful. Delete the following temporary windows installer registry, if present:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\InProgress
I get a misleading warning or error message during Dell OpenManage installation.
If you have insufficient disk space on the Windows system drive, you may encounter misleading warning or error
messages when you run Dell OpenManage Install. Additionally, windows installer requires space to temporarily extract
the installer package to the %TEMP% folder. Ensure that you have sufficient disk space (100 MB or more) on the system
drive prior to running Dell OpenManage Install.
I am getting the following error message while launching Dell OpenManage Install:
An older version of Server Administrator software is detected on this system.
You must uninstall all previous versions of Server Administrator applications
before installing this version
If you see this error when trying to launch Dell OpenManage Install, it is recommended that you run the OMClean.exe
program, under the SYSMGMT\srvadmin\support\OMClean directory, to remove an older version of Server Administrator
on the system.
