10 Introduction
Installation
You can install Server Administrator using the Dell Systems Management Tools
and Documentation DVD. The DVD provides a setup program to install,
upgrade, and uninstall Server Administrator, managed system and
management station software components. Additionally, you can install
Server Administrator on multiple systems through an unattended installation
across a network.
The Dell OpenManage installer provides installation scripts and RPM packages
to install and uninstall Dell OpenManage Server Administrator and other
managed system software components on your managed system. For more
information, see the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Installation
Guide and the Dell OpenManage Management Station Software Installation
Guide at support.dell.com/manuals.
NOTE: When you install the open source packages from the Dell Systems
Management Tools and Documentation DVD, the corresponding license files are
automatically copied to the system. When you remove these packages, the
corresponding files are removed.
If you have a modular system, you must install Server Administrator on each
server module installed in the chassis.
Updating Individual System Components
To update individual system components, use component-specific Dell
Update Packages. Use the Dell Server Updates DVD to view the complete
version report and to update an entire system. The Server Update Utility is
a DVD-ROM–based application for identifying and applying updates to your
system. The Server Update Utility can be downloaded from support.dell.com.
See the Server Update Utility User's Guide for more information about obtaining
and using the Server Update Utility (SUU) to update your Dell Systems or to
view the updates available for any systems listed in the Repository.
Storage Management Service
The Storage Management Service provides storage management information
in an integrated graphical view.
For detailed information on the Storage Management Service, see the
Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Storage Management User's Guide at
support.dell.com/manuals.
