Documentation DVD.
NOTE: A MIB-II-compliant, SNMP-supported network management station
is required to compile and browse MIB files.
* OpenManage support for EFS (Encrypting File System)
To improve security, Microsoft provides the capability to encrypt files
using EFS (Encrypting File System). Note that Server Administrator
will not function if its dependent files are encrypted.
* Server Administrator GUI and CLI Response Time
On Dell PowerEdge x8xx and later systems, the response times
for some parts of the OMSA GUI and CLI have increased to several
seconds because some of the BMC/iDRAC data is no longer cached
by Server Administrator. The data must be retrieved from the
BMC/iDRAC when requested by the user.
The following Server Administrator GUI pages are of note:
- Server Administrator home page on log in
- Remote Access -> Users
- Alert Management -> Platform Events
The following Server Administrator CLI commands are of note:
- omreport chassis remoteaccess config=user
- omreport system platformevents
- omreport system pedestinations
The amount of time varies by hardware system and operating system.

NOTES FOR THE INSTRUMENTATION SERVICE
======================================================================
* On certain systems, user-defined thresholds set under Server
Administrator become the default thresholds after uninstalling
Server Administrator.
After you change the threshold value of a probe on certain systems
running Server Administrator and then uninstall Server Administrator,
the changed threshold value becomes the default threshold value.
* When modifying the warning threshold settings, the values are stored
in the firmware as discrete integer values and scaled for display.
If the modified value is not a discrete integer, it may change when
saved.
* Fan redundancy can have the following states:
Fully Redundant: The sensors display this status, if all the fans
in the system are present and are in a non-failure state.
