Coexistence of OpenManage Server Administrator and iDRAC Service
Module
In a system, both OpenManage Server Administrator and the iDRAC Service Module can co-exist and
continue to function correctly and independently.
If you have enabled the monitoring features during the iDRAC Service Module installation, then after the
installation is complete if the iDRAC Service Module detects the presence of OpenManage Server
Administrator, it disables the set of monitoring features that overlap. If OpenManage Server Administrator
is running, the iDRAC Service Module disables the overlapping monitoring features after logging to the
OS and iDRAC.
When you re-enable these monitoring features through the iDRAC interfaces later, the same checks are
performed and the features are enabled depending on whether OpenManage Server Administrator is
running or not.
