Introduction Overview Server Administrator provides a comprehensive, one-to-one systems management solution in two ways: from an integrated, Web browser-based Graphical User Interface (GUI) and from a command line interface (CLI) through the operating system. Server Administrator is designed for system administrators to both locally and remotely manage systems on a network.
NOTE: If you have a modular system, you must install Server Administrator on each server module that is installed in the chassis. NOTE: For more information on unattended installation/uninstallation refer to the Dell OpenManage™ Installation and Security User's Guide. To update individual system components, use component-specific Dell Update Packages. Use the Dell Server Update Utility application CD to view the complete version report and to update an entire system.
Storage Management Service The Storage Management Service provides storage management information in an integrated graphical view. The Storage Management Service of Server Administrator: • Enables you to view the status of local and remote storage attached to a monitored system. • Supports SCSI, SATA, ATA, and SAS. Does not support Fibre Channel.
Logs Server Administrator displays logs of commands issued to or by the system, monitored hardware events, POST events, and system alerts. You can view logs on the home page, print or save them as reports, and send them by e-mail to a designated service contact. Other Documents You Might Need Besides this User's Guide, you can find the following guides either on the Dell Support website at support.dell.
• The Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Storage Management User's Guide is a comprehensive reference guide for configuring and managing local and remote storage attached to a system. • The Dell Remote Access Controller Installation and Setup Guide provides complete information about installing and configuring a DRAC III, DRAC III/XT, and an ERA/O controller, configuring an ERA controller, and using a RAC to remotely access an inoperable system.

What’s New for Version 5.1 • Added support for SUSE® Linux Enterprise Server (Version 10), on Intel® Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel EM64T) systems. Server Administrator is only supported on the host system (domain 0), Xen extensions are not supported. NOTE: Remote Access Service is not supported on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (Version 10). • Added support for Microsoft® Windows® Small Business Server 2003 R2 on Intel EM64T systems.
What’s New for Version 5.
Setup and Administration Security Management Server Administrator provides security through role-based access control (RBAC), authentication, and encryption for both the Web-based and command line interfaces. Role-Based Access Control RBAC manages security by determining the operations that can be executed by persons in particular roles. Each user is assigned one or more roles, and each role is assigned one or more user privileges that are permitted to users in that role.
Read access allows viewing of data reported by Server Administrator. Read access does not allow changing or setting values on the managed system. Write access allows values to be changed or set on the managed system. Admin access also allows shutdown of the managed system. Privilege Levels to Access Server Administrator Services Table 3-2 summarizes which user levels have privileges to access and manage Server Administrator services. Table 3-2.
Red Hat® Enterprise Linux and SUSE® Linux Enterprise Server Authentication For supported Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server operating systems, Server Administrator authentication is based on the Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) library. This documented library of functions allows an administrator to determine how individual applications authenticate users.
4 Type the appropriate information in the dialog box, select or deselect the appropriate check boxes, and then click Create. NOTICE: You must assign a password to every user account that can access Server Administrator to protect access to your critical system components. Additionally, users who do not have an assigned password cannot log into Server Administrator on a system running Windows Server 2003 due to operating system constraints. 5 In the console tree, under Local Users and Groups, click Groups.
Adding Users to a Domain NOTE: For information about creating users and assigning user group privileges or for more detailed instructions, see your operating system documentation. NOTE: You must have Microsoft® Active Directory® installed on your system to perform the following procedures. 1 Click the Start button, and then point to Control Panel→ Administrative Tools→ Active Directory Users and Computers.
Creating Users With User Privileges 1 Run the following command from the command line: useradd -d -g where is not root. NOTE: If does not exist, you must create it by using the groupadd command. 2 Type passwd and press . 3 When prompted, enter a password for the new user. NOTICE: You must assign a password to every user account that can access Server Administrator to protect access to your critical system components.
Configuring the SNMP Agent Server Administrator supports the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)—a systems management standard—on all supported operating systems. The SNMP support may or may not be installed depending on your operating system and how the operating system was installed. In most cases, SNMP is installed as part of your operating system installation. An installed supported systems management protocol standard, such as SNMP, is required before installing Server Administrator.
Enabling SNMP Access By Remote Hosts Windows Server 2003, by default, does not accept SNMP packets from remote hosts. For systems running Windows Server 2003, you must configure the SNMP service to accept SNMP packets from remote hosts if you plan to manage the system by using SNMP management applications from remote hosts.
5 Click the Security tab to add or edit a community name. a To add a community name, click Add under the Accepted Community Names list. The SNMP Service Configuration window appears. b Type the community name of a system that is able to manage your system (the default is public) in the Community Name text box and click Add. The SNMP Service Properties window appears. c To change a community name, select a community name in the Accepted Community Names list and click Edit.
Configuring Your System to Send SNMP Traps to a Management Station Server Administrator generates SNMP traps in response to changes in the status of sensors and other monitored parameters. You must configure one or more trap destinations on the Server Administrator system for SNMP traps to be sent to a management station. 1 If your system is running Windows Server 2003, click the Start button, right-click My Computer, and point to Manage.
For Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating systems, the default SNMP agent configuration gives read-only access for the "public" community only to the MIB-II "system" branch (identified by the 1.3.6.1.2.1.1 OID) of the MIB tree. This configuration does not allow management applications to retrieve or change Server Administrator or other systems management information outside of the MIB-II "system" branch.
To change the SNMP community name used for retrieving management information from a system running Server Administrator, edit the SNMP agent configuration file, /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf, and perform the following steps: 1 Find the line that reads: com2sec publicsec default public or com2sec notConfigUser default public 2 Edit this line, replacing public with the new SNMP community name.
Configuring Your System to Send Traps to a Management Station Server Administrator generates SNMP traps in response to changes in the status of sensors and other monitored parameters. One or more trap destinations must be configured on the system running Server Administrator for SNMP traps to be sent to a management station. To configure your system running Server Administrator to send traps to a management station, edit the SNMP agent configuration file, /etc/snmp/snmpd.
installation, it logs a message to the operating system log file, /var/log/messages, to indicate that SNMP access is restricted to the local host. You must configure the SNMP agent to enable SNMP access from remote hosts if you plan to manage the system by using SNMP management applications from remote hosts. NOTE: For security reasons, it is advisable to restrict SNMP access to specific remote hosts if possible.
To change the default SNMP community name used for retrieving management information from a system running Server Administrator, edit the SNMP agent configuration file, /etc/snmpd.conf or /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf, and perform the following steps: 1 Find the line that reads: rocommunity public 127.0.0.1 2 Edit this line by replacing public with the new SNMP community name. When edited, the new line should read: rocommunity community_name 127.0.0.
To configure your system running Server Administrator to send traps to a management station, edit the SNMP agent configuration file, /etc/snmpd.conf or /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf, and perform the following steps: 1 Add the following line to the file: trapsink IP_address community_name where IP_address is the IP address of the management station and community_name is the SNMP community name. 2 To enable SNMP configuration changes, restart the SNMP agent by typing: /etc/init.d/snmpd restart X.
3 Press to select Security Level and then press the spacebar to select the security level you want to set. The selected Security Level is indicated by an asterisk. NOTE: Press for more information about the firewall security levels. The default SNMP port number is 161. If you are using the X Window System graphical user interface, pressing may not provide information about firewall security levels on newer versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Maintain Integrity of Redundant Virtual Disks If you have created a redundant virtual disk, the Check Consistency task verifies the accuracy of the redundant (parity) information. This task only applies to redundant virtual disks. When necessary, the Check Consistency task rebuilds the redundant data.
To unassign a dedicated hot spare 1 Click the disk in the Disks currently configured as dedicated hot spare table to unassign it. Clicking the disk removes the disk from the Disks currently configured as dedicated hot spare table and returns it to the Connector (channel or port) table. 2 Click Apply Changes when ready. To locate this task in Storage Management 1 Expand the Storage tree object to display the controller objects. 2 Expand a controller object. 3 Select the Virtual Disks object.
• Enable, Disable, Quiet, and Test Alarm. These tasks enable you to manage the controller alarm. For example, you can set the alarm to sound in the event of a device failure or quiet the alarm once it is sounding. • Set Rebuild Rate. The rebuild rate refers to how much of the system's resources are dedicated to rebuilding a failed physical disk. This task enables you to adjust this setting. • Reset Configuration.
Enclosure Tasks The following enclosure tasks are available when the Enclosure object is selected. See the Storage Management online help for more information. • Enable and Disable Alarm. Use these tasks to manage the enclosure alarm. When enabled, the alarm sounds when the enclosure encounters an error condition. • Set Asset Data. Use this task to change the enclosure's asset tag and asset name. • Set Temperature Probe Values. The temperature probes monitor the enclosure's temperature.
• Initialize. On some controllers, the Initialize task prepares a physical disk for use as a member of a virtual disk. • Rebuild. See "Rebuild a Failed Physical Disk." • Cancel Rebuild. Use the Cancel Rebuild task to cancel a rebuild that is in progress. • Clear Physical Disk and Cancel Clear. Use the clear physical disk task to erase data residing on an physical disk. Virtual Disk Tasks The following virtual disk tasks are available when the Virtual Disks object is selected.
Migrating from Array Manager to the Storage Management If you replace an existing Array Manager installation with Storage Management, the following migration considerations apply: • Virtual Disk Preservation. You can preserve the virtual disk names when migrating from Array Manager to Storage Management. To do so, however, you must not uninstall Array Manager prior to installing Storage Management.

Server Administrator Logs Overview Server Administrator allows you view and manage hardware, alert, POST, and command logs. All users can access logs and print reports from either the Server Administrator home page or from its command line interface. Users must be logged in with Admin privileges to clear logs or must be logged in with Admin or Power User privileges to e-mail logs to their designated service contact.
Server Administrator Logs Server Administrator provides the following logs: • Hardware Log • Alert Log • POST Log • Command Log Hardware Log Use the hardware log to look for potential problems with your system's hardware components. On Dell™ PowerEdge™ x8xx and x9xx systems, the hardware log status indicator will change to a red X ( )when the log file reaches 100 percent capacity.
category and an event message that describes the event. The event ID and message uniquely describe the severity and cause of the event and provide other relevant information such as the location of the event and the monitored component's previous state. To access the Alert log, click System, click the Logs tab, and click Alert.
Information displayed in the Command log includes: • The date and time that the command was invoked • The user that is currently logged into the Server Administrator home page or the CLI • A description of the command and its related values NOTE: The log history may be required for future troubleshooting and diagnostic purposes. Therefore, it is recommended that you save the log files.
Troubleshooting Setting Alert Actions for Systems Running Supported Red Hat® Enterprise Linux and SUSE® Linux Enterprise Server Operating Systems When you set Alert Actions for an event, you can specify the action to "display an alert on the server." To perform this action, Server Administrator writes a message to /dev/console. If the Server Administrator system is running an X Window System, you will not see that message by default.
• Redirect stdout and stderr to a file when specifying the application so that you can see any output or error messages. • If you want to execute multiple applications (or commands) for an alert, create a script to do that and put the full path to the script in the "application to execute" box. Example 1: ps -ef >/tmp/psout.txt 2>&1 The command in Example 1 executes the application ps, redirects stdout to the file /tmp/psout.txt, and redirects stderr to the same file as stdout.
Table 11-1. BMC PEF Alert Events (continued) Event Description PPS/VRM/DCtoDC Warning The power supply, voltage regulator module, or DC to DC converter is pending a failure condition.
