NOTE: For the list of supported operating systems and Dell servers, see the Dell EMC OpenManage Software Support Matrix in
the required version of OpenManage Software at dell.com/openmanagemanuals.
NOTE: For more information about any features, see the Dell EMC OpenManage Server Administrator online Help .
NOTE: From 9.3.0, the RPM packages have been signed with Dell SHA-512 signature key. If using non interactive or silent
method of installation, to verify the authenticity, you must download the key from the following location: https://
linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/dsu/public_gpg3.key, and then import the key to each host with --import <key file>
before installing or upgrading to the current version of Server Administrator. Once the key is imported, you are not required to
import the key every time while installing, or upgrading to the current version of Server Administrator.
Important Notes
Notes for Server Administrator
On YX2X generation or later PowerEdge server with iDRAC7 1.30.30 and later versions, you can set the Platform Event Destination as
IPv4, IPv6, or FQDN.
User privileges
The iDRAC user privileges and attributes have changed. Therefore, you will see a difference in Server Administrator and iDRAC user
privileges and attributes. For more information on IDRAC user privileges and attributes, see latest iDRAC user guide.
Notes for Instrumentation Service
• On YX1X generation or later PowerEdge server, if conflicting BIOS settings exist while configuring BIOS setup options through Server
Administrator, the update attempt may fail at system reboot and none of the BIOS setup options may be updated.
• For example, when you configure Embedded SATA Controller to RAID and Boot Mode to UEFI simultaneously (UEFI does not support
RAID option), the conflict prevents the BIOS configuration updates (at system reboot).
• On certain systems, user-defined thresholds set under Server Administrator become the default thresholds after uninstalling Server
Administrator.
• If you change the threshold value of a probe on certain systems, running Server Administrator, and then uninstall Server Administrator,
the changed threshold value becomes the default threshold value.
• While modifying the warning threshold settings, the values are stored in the firmware as discrete integer values and scaled for display.
If the modified value is not a discrete integer, it may change when saved.
• Fan redundancy can have the following states:
• Fully Redundant — The sensors display this status if all the fans in the system are present and are in a non-failed state.
• 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.
