● For devices that were added successfully to the device inventory:
○ Verify if the device displays an error status. If an error status is displayed, click the error status to view a detailed
description of the error and a possible resolution.
○ You may also have to perform additional tasks that may be required to enable SupportAssist Enterprise to monitor those
devices. To allow SupportAssist Enterprise to monitor the device, enable monitoring and ensure that the SNMP settings
of the device are configured. For instructions to enable monitoring, see Enabling or disabling monitoring of a device
on page 94. For instructions to configure the SNMP settings of a device, see Configuring SNMP settings by using
SupportAssist Enterprise on page 97 and Manually configuring SNMP settings on page 134.
● For devices that were added to the Staging group:

installing the iDRAC Enterprise license, see the iDRAC User's Guide at https://www.Dell.com/idracmanuals.

Manager application. For information on enabling the SupportAssist in Enterprise Manager, see the Dell Enterprise
Manager Administrator's Guide at https://www.Dell.com/storagemanuals.
