Important Notes
 When the system is booted using the Support Live Image DVD or USB key or iDRAC virtual media, the image is
copied to the RAM.
 If booting with less than 8 GB of RAM, potential risk exists for filling the read-write overlay (device-mapper
snapshot) and preventing most system operations. If this is encountered, reboot the Support Live Image.
 When booting to the Support Live Image, by default the system boots to the CentOS graphical user interface
(GUI) desktop automatically. If you want to boot to the MS-DOS mode, press any key when the automatic boot
countdown timer is displayed.
 When the system is booted using the Linux-Based Diagnostic tools option, by default you are logged on as
'sliuser'. The password required to login to the 'root' account (for example, for use with ssh or OMSA) is 'dell'.
 By default, secure shell (SSH) is enabled for the root account.
 There is no firewall configured on the system and 'selinux' is disabled.
 Dell OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA) can be launched by the icon on the desktop or by
using https://localhost:1311. To login, use the username: root and the password: 'dell'.
o You may need to disable Firefox Offline Mode
o Follow the self-signed certification exception process:
1. In the 'This connection is Untrusted' window, click 'I Understand the Risks'
2. In the 'I understand the Risks' window, click Add Exception
3. In the 'Add Security Exception' dialog box, click 'Get Certificate'.
4. Click 'Confirm Security Exception'.
 The NetworkManager configures networking through DHCP when booted to the CentOS environment. If you
need to set static IP(s), configure the IP from the NetworkManager applet or stop the NetworkManager and
configure networking using command line interface (CLI).
 Connection through VNC to 'display: 0' is available when booted to the CentOS environment.
 To run DSET, double-click the DSET icon on the SLI desktop.
 Partitions and logical volume file systems (NTFS, VFAT, EXT2, and EXT3) on the local disks are mounted after the
required RPMs are installed. For information on the required RPMs, see the "Accessing and remounting the local file
system" in the Dell Support Live Image Version 2.2 User's Guide at Dell.com/ServiceabilityTools.
 To prevent automatic mounting of the local file system, provide the parameters 'nolvmmount' and 'nodiskmount'
while booting to the image.
 'Yum' may be used to install additional packages from public CentOS repositories.
 Many common CentOS7 commands and utilities are also available.
