8. RAID Controller Supported Servers, Operating Systems, Firmware, and
Driver Versions
Starting with Dell OpenManage Server Administrator version 5.0, only the enhanced Storage Management Service is supported. The Storage Management
Service allows you to configure and manage your storage devices from within Server Administrator.
NOTE: The Storage Management Service mentioned in this guide refers to the enhanced Storage Management Service. Server Administrator no longer
supports the basic Storage Management Service (also known as Array Manager).
Most of the systems management releases support management of RAID controllers in the form of PERC cards, and some systems management releases also
support CERC IDE and SATA controllers. System administrators responsible for monitoring the compatibility of their systems' storage devices need a clear matrix
that shows the elements that are compatible with a particular storage controller. Each storage controller version in turn supports a specific array of elements,
including:
• Version of the Storage Management Service
• Dell system
• Firmware version number required for a particular controller
• Supported operating systems, where each operating system requires a specific driver
For more information on Storage Management Services see the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator User's Guide and the Dell OpenManage Storage
Management User's Guide at support.dell.com.
