Installing Management Station Software 75
Upgrade
The Dell OpenManage installer provides an Upgrade option for upgrading
IT Assistant and other management station software.
When you insert the Dell Systems Management Tools and Documentation
DVD into your system's DVD drive, select Dell OpenManage Management
Station from the autorun menu, and click Install. The Prerequisite Checker
program checks your system.
To upgrade all of the management station software products that are
currently installed on your system, click Install, Modify, Repair or Remove

typical Windows installer behavior. It is recommended that you reboot the system
when prompted.
All features appropriate for your system are pre-selected during an upgrade.
