Creating A Launch License Manager Task
About this task
Launch License Manager Task uses the default Dell License Manager(DLM) install
path (%PROGRAMFILES(X86)%\Dell\SysMgt\LicenseManager\Dell.DlmUI.exe or %PROGRAMFILES%
\Dell\SysMgt\LicenseManager\Dell.DlmUI.exe), that cannot be modified.
If your systems deviate from this, install DLM on the management server and create new console tasks in the Authoring pane
targeted on DLM for Dell Server.
To create a new task:
Steps
1. Launch OpsMgr console and click Authoring.
2. In the Authoring pane, right-click Tasks under Management Pack Objects, and select Create new task.
3. In the Task Type screen, select Command line under Console Tasks.
4. Select the destination management pack and click Next.
5. Type Task name, Description, and set the Task Target with one of the following:
● Dell Windows Server (for Dell Server In-band Monitoring)
● Dell Server (for Dell Server Out-of-band Monitoring)
● Dell iDRAC7 (for DRAC Monitoring)
6. Click Next.
The Command Line screen is displayed.
7. Type the path of the application Dell.DlmUI.exe (the path where DLM was installed on the management server) in the
Application field.
For example, C:\Program Files\Dell\SysMgt\LicenseManager\Dell.DlmUI.exe (default DLM Path may
differ based on your operating system language).
8. Click Create to create the task and repeat this procedure for each new DLM task.
