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: From 9.3.0, the RPM packages in Server Administrator are signed with a new 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 rpm --

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.

Accessing the windows command prompt to run CLI

commands

If you are running the Microsoft Windows operating system, use the 32-bit command prompt to run a Server Administrator CLI

command. Access the 32-bit command prompt using one of the following methods:

● Click Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.

● Click Start > Run and type cmd.exe.

NOTE:

Do not type command in the Run dialog box to launch a command line window; this activates the MS-DOS emulator

command.com, which has environment variable limitations that can cause subtle problems with CLI.

Primary CLI Commands

The commands that carry out the functions of Server Administrator are:

● omconfig

● omhelp

● omreport

The omconfig command writes values that you assign to an object's properties. You can specify values for warning thresholds

on components or prescribe actions that the system must perform when a certain warning or failure event occurs. You can also

use the omconfig command to assign specific values to the system's asset information parameters, such as the purchase

price of the system, the system's asset tag, or the system's location.
