support. If your system is running Windows Server 2003 R2 or Windows Storage
Server R2, it is recommended that after you install Server Administrator,
you also install the optional Hardware Management component of R2.
To install the Windows Server 2003 R2 IPMI driver on PowerEdge x8xx and
PowerVault x00 systems, perform the following additional step:
• From a command shell, execute the following command:
Rundll32 ipmisetp.dll, AddTheDevice
NOTE: This step is not required on PowerEdge x9xx systems.
After you install the Hardware Management component of
Windows Server 2003 R2 operating system and perform the additional step
to install the Windows Server 2003 R2 IPMI driver (on PowerEdge x8xx systems),
restart the DSM SA Data Manager service so that Server Administrator can
switch over from using its own internal IPMI support to using the
Windows Server 2003 R2 IPMI driver. To restart the service, you can either
manually restart the service or reboot the system.
If you uninstall the Windows Server 2003 R2 IPMI driver later, either by
manually uninstalling it or by uninstalling the Hardware Management
component (which will uninstall the driver), restart the DSM SA Data Manager
service so that Server Administrator can switch over from using the Windows
Server 2003 R2 IPMI driver to using its own internal IPMI support. To restart
the service, you can either manually restart the service or reboot the system.
Digital Certificates
All Server Administrator packages for Microsoft are digitally signed with a
Dell certificate that helps guarantee the integrity of the installation packages.
If these packages are repackaged, edited, or manipulated in other ways,
the digital signature will be invalidated. This manipulation results in an
unsupported installation package and the Prerequisite Checker will not allow
you to install the software.
