Introduction 1 Dell OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA) provides a comprehensive, one-to-one systems management solution through either an integrated Web browser-based graphical user interface (GUI) or a command line interface (CLI). Server Administrator is designed for system administrators to manage systems locally and remotely on a network. It allows system administrators to manage their entire network by providing a comprehensive one-to-one systems management.
The following are the highlights of Server Administrator version 8.1: • Support for the following Dell PowerEdge servers: – FD332 – FC830 – M830 – FC430 – C4130 • Added support for the following Dell PERC 9 controllers: – FD33xD – FD33xS • Support for the following operating systems: – Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 – VMware ESXi 6.0 – Citrix XenServer 6.5 NOTE: Server Administrator Storage Management does not support XenServer 6.5.
– 4KN SAS drives – Hot plug support on PERC S130 software RAID controller – Changing the controller mode from RAID to HBA and vice versa on PERC 9 family of hardware controllers. For more details see, omconfig Set Controller Mode. – Samsung NVMe drives on VMware ESXi 6.0 operating system • Support for 6Gbps SATA drive NOTE: For the list of supported operating systems and Dell servers, see the Dell Systems Software Support Matrix in the required version of OpenManage Software at dell.com/openmanagemanuals.
NOTE: For an overall summary of the CLI commands, type omhelp. NOTE: The omupdate commands are no longer supported in Server Administrator and are replaced by Dell Update Package or the Server Update Utility commands. To update the different components, download the Dell Update Package and run the /s [/f command.
Command omconfig chassis volts index=3 minwarnthresh=3.3000 Message Error! Number with up to 3 digits after decimal point expected, read 3.3000 The value given by the command specifies more than 3 digits after the decimal point. A valid minimum warning threshold value for volts contains up to 3 digits after the decimal point. Revised command omconfig chassis volts index=3 minwarnthresh=3.
Command syntax overview Commands vary in complexity. The simplest command has only command level 1. The omhelp command is a simple command. When you type omhelp, a list of the main CLI commands is displayed. The next level of complexity includes commands that contain command levels 1 and 2. All of the about commands are examples of command level 2 complexity. The omconfig about and omreport about commands display a very brief summary.
Using The omhelp Command 2 The omhelp command and its equivalent, -?, accesses the detailed help-text interface of Command Line Interface (CLI). You can get help at several levels of detail. Each fully-qualified CLI command may have a variable number of distinct parts: the command (command level 1), one or more subcommands (command level 2 and command level 3, if present), and one or more name= value pair(s).
where command levels 1, 2, and 3 are represented by omconfig system assetinfo, name=value pair 1 is represented by info=depreciation , and name=value pair 2 is represented by method=straightline. To set the depreciation method to straight line, type: omconfig system assetinfo info=depreciation method=straightline The CLI responds with the following message: Asset information set successfully.
omreport: Viewing System Status Using The Instrumentation Service 3 The omreport command allows you to see detailed information about the system components. You can also retrieve summaries for many system components at one time, or get details about a specific component. This chapter shows you how to get reports with the level of detail that you want. Commands documented in this chapter vary in whether they define the fields that appear in the results of a particular omreport command.
The symbol |, often called pipe, is the logical exclusive or operator. For example, enable | disable means you can enable or disable the component or feature, but you cannot simultaneously enable and disable the component or feature. Command summary of the omreport command Depending on the system configuration, the results of the omreport command vary from one system to another. Data displays for installed components only.

warning by using the force=yes parameter. In this case, the syntax is as follows: omconfig storage controller action=resetconfig controller=id force=yes Example to Reset the configuration on controller 1. Example omconfig storage controller action=resetconfig controller=1 omconfig Create Virtual Disk The Dell OpenManage Online Help provides additional information about creating virtual disks. The omconfig syntax for creating a virtual disk has several parameters.
NOTE: For RAID 10 creation, PERC 9 firmware suggests the layout (number of array disks) with uneven span (spans with unequal number of array disks), though in a span the number of disks remains even. For example, for 32 disks, RAID 10 gets created with all the disks in one span and for 34 disks, RAID 10 gets created with 16 disks in one span and 18 disks in the other span. Example Syntax: You can create a RAID-5 virtual disk of 500 MB with a stripe size of 16 KB on a PERC 3/QC controller.
Specify the controller ID as reported by the omreport storage controller command. For example,controller=2 raid= Use the raid= parameter to specify a RAID level for a virtual disk. Different controllers support different RAID levels. For more information about RAID levels a controller supports and for general information about RAID levels, see the Dell OpenManage Online Help.
Some controllers allow you to remove a physical disk from a virtual disk. In this case, do not specify to remove the physical disk. The pdisk= parameter indicates a physical disk by specifying either connector:enclosureID:targetID or connector:targetID. stripesize=<2kb | 4kb | 8kb | 16kb | 32kb | 64kb | 128kb> Different controllers support different stripe sizes. For more information on stripe sizes supported for a controller, see the Dell OpenManage Online Help.
Different controllers support different write policies. The following table displays how to specify the writepolicy= parameter for each of the write policies. Table 94.
size= Parameter Specification Description example, size=500m indicates that the virtual disk is 500 MB. size=max To create a virtual disk that is the maximum size possible, specify size=max. When creating a RAID-50 virtual disk, this parameter is specified as size=max. size=min To create a virtual disk that is the minimum size possible, specify size=min.
Table 98. Disk Cache Policy Parameters Disk Cache Policy diskcachepolicy=disabled | enabled Parameter Specification Disabled diskcachepolicy=disabled Enabled diskcachepolicy=enabled Readpolicy=] Different controllers support different read policies. The following table displays how to specify the readpolicy= parameter for each of the read policies. Table 99.
For RAID 10 on SAS controllers with firmware version 6.1 and later, spanlength is optional. Also, you can now specify the spanlength as an even number with a maximum of 8 spans with 32 physical disks each. For example: omconfig storage controller action=createvdisk controller=1 raid=r10 size=min pdisk= 1:1:0,1:1:1,1:1:3,1:1:4,1:1:6,1:1:7,1:1:8,1:1:9 spanlength=4 Omconfig Set Controller Rebuild Rate Descriptio Sets the controller rebuild rate.

Working With CLI Command Results 9 Server Administrator Command Line Interface (CLI) users can use the command output in various ways. This chapter explains how to save command output to a file and how to select a format for the command results that fits different objectives. The following table displays the systems on which omreport commands are applicable. Table 119.
The multiscreen system summary displays the first screen. When you want to see the next screen of command output, press the spacebar. Writing Command Output To A File When redirecting command results to a file, you can specify a filename (and a directory path if necessary) to which you want to write the command result. When specifying the path to which you want to write the file, use the appropriate syntax for the operating system. You can save command results in two ways.
Probe Name : System Board Fan 1 RPM Reading : 3001RPM Minimum Warning Threshold : 700RPM Maximum Warning Threshold : 5500RPM Minimum Failure Threshold : 500RPM Maximum Failure Threshold : 6000RPM You cannot refer to the previous command results to compare the earlier fan probe 0 output with the present output because in using the -outc option, you overwrote the fans.txt file.
Minimum Warning Threshold : 900RPM Maximum Warning Threshold : 3500RPM Minimum Failure Threshold : 500RPM Maximum Failure Threshold : 6000RPM You can use a text editor to insert the time that each block of data was captured. In comparing the two snapshots for fan probe 0, you can see that the second report shows several changes. The reading of fan RPM has increased by 621 RPM but is still within normal range.
List (lst) The default format is lst or list format. Use this format when you want to optimize output for simple readability. You need to specify a format for the command output only if you want a format other than the lst format. To see the following example command output in lst format, type: omreport system summary or omreport servermodule summary No special formatting option is required because list format is the default display format.
The example output displays as follows: -----------------------------Network Data -----------------------------Network Interface 0 IP Address;143.166.152.108 Subnet Mask;255.255.255.0 Default Gateway;143.166.152.1 MAC Address;00-02-b3-23-d2-ca Custom delimited format (cdv) Use the cdv formatting option to report exported data in custom delimited format. You can specify this option with any omreport command.
