Install Guide

Installation Requirements

This section describes the general requirements of the Server Administrator and provides information on supported operating systems and

web browsers.

NOTE: Prerequisites specic to an operating system are listed as part of the installation procedures.

Supported Operating Systems And Web Browsers

For information on supported operating systems and web browsers, see the Dell EMC OpenManage Systems Software Support Matrix .

NOTE: Ensure that the web browser is congured to bypass the proxy server for local addresses.

Multilingual User Interface Support

The installer provides Multilingual User Interface (MUI) support available on the following operating systems:

• Microsoft Windows Server 2016

The MUI Pack are a set of language-specic resource les that you can add to the English version of a supported Windows operating

system. The installer supports only six languages: English, German, Spanish, French, Simplied Chinese, and Japanese.

NOTE

: When the MUI Pack is set to non-Unicode languages like Simplied Chinese, set the system locale to Simplied Chinese.

This enables display of the prerequisite checker messages. This is because any non-Unicode application runs only when the

system locale (also called Language for non-Unicode Programs on XP) is set to match the application's language.

Viewing Localized Versions Of The Web-Based Interface

To view the localized versions of the web interface on Windows, in the Control Panel select Regional and Language Options.
