Redundancy Lost - The sensors display this status whenever any system fan fails or is removed from the
chassis.
• If a system with memory redundancy enabled enters a "redundancy lost" state, it may not be clear
which memory module caused it. 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 when the system is in "OS Install Mode", it may report the memory
incorrectly. To avoid this issue, you must disable "OS Install Mode" before running the application.
• If you have to uninstall and reinstall the operating system SNMP service, then reinstall Server
Administrator, 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, the application loads one or both of these drivers. 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.
Notes for Storage Management Service
• Detailed information on the Storage Management Service is available in the Storage Management
Service online help. After installing and launching Server Administrator, you can access the Storage
Management Service online help by selecting the Storage or lower-level tree object and clicking the
Help button on the global navigation bar.
Notes for Remote Access Service
• The remote access service is available on supported systems only in this release. It enables remote
access to a server that has lost its network connection or that has become unresponsive. In the current
release of Server Administrator, the Remote Access Service uses Integrated Dell Remote Access
Controller (iDRAC).
• iDRAC also has its own CLI that is accessed through the "racadm" command. You can add "racadm"
commands to a batch or script file to automate various user tasks. To limit the stress load on the
managed system and RAC, add "sleep" or "delay" commands of one or two seconds between the
individual "racadm" commands.
