Hi,
I've installed the latest version of Dell OpenManage Server
Administrator Managed Node
(OMI-SrvAdmin-Dell-Web-LX-450-32-335_A00.tar.gz) on a PowerEdge 1655MC
blade server running RHEL4 U3 x86.
I've run the srvadmin-install.sh script and I've chosen to install all
components (menu choice 6), including the Remote Access components:
srvadmin-rac3-components-4.5.0-335
srvadmin-racvnc-4.5.0-335
srvadmin-racser-4.5.0-335
srvadmin-racser-devel-4.5.0-335
srvadmin-racdrsc3-4.5.0-335
When rebooting the server, the racser service failed to start with
the following message:
"The rac Probe of RAC board: RAC pci device not found"
Then the server got stuck while trying to start the racvnc service.
I had to force a reboot, use the interactive boot process and select
to not start the racvnc service to bring the server back online.
I installed the same software on another PE1655MC blade server, this
time using the express install option for the srvadmin-install.sh
script:
[-x|--express] installs all components (including 'RAC', if available)
any other options passed will be ignored.
The express install didn't load the Remote Access components on the
server and I was able to successfully reboot it w/o any issue.
So apparently these components are not supported on the PE1655MC, can
anyone confirm?
Thanks.
