Dell Embedded Open Manage Server Administrator
The Dell Update Package for Dell Embedded Open Manage Server Administrator can only be applied
in a pre-operating system environment that uses the Embedded Linux (ELI) through the Dell
OpenManage Deployment Toolkit (DTK).
Intel firmware
The Linux FW DUP file requires DKMS (Version 2.2.x up to 2.2.0.2-1) and will not install correctly
without it. It also requires that the appropriate kernel sources and the compiler be installed,
because the Intel iqvLinux driver must be compiled on the target system.
Emulex firmware
Before running the Dell (Emulex) Network firmware DUP ensure that Dell (Emulex) driver
packages are installed on the system.
DRAC 5 firmware
Before updating the DRAC firmware, ensure that the following conditions are met:
1. USB is enabled
2. IPMI is working properly
3. DRAC Virtual Flash is not in use either by the operating system or by any other application
The Linux DUP in this release may not work on RHEL 5. It works on earlier versions of RHEL. In cases where it
does not work, use the web pack to perform this update.
Power Supply Unit firmware
Power Supply Unit firmware updates can be performed only on Life Cycle Controller enabled
systems.
All PERC firmware and all SAS firmware
Do not run storage controller update packages if the controller is in use by other applications.
The firmware upgrade may fail if any of the RAID controllers in the system are performing an I/O
background task (consistency check, background initialization, rebuild, or reconstruction).
Allow the background task to complete before attempting to upgrade the firmware. "Patrol Read"
tasks will not affect a firmware upgrade.
Linux systems running one or more applications that interact with SCSI devices in certain ways
are known to cause a kernel panic situation. Therefore, it is recommended that you stop Dell
OpenManage Server Administrator and Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Storage
Management Service before running storage controller firmware update packages.
To stop the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator service, run "omconfig system webserver
action=stop"
To start the Server Administrator service, run "omconfig system webserver action=start"
To stop the Server Administrator Storage Management Service,
run "/etc/init.d/dataeng stop"
