Dell OpenManage Server Administrator for CentOS 5.3

Recently , a Dell R710 is purchased in the lab, but Server Administrator 版本 6.1.0 cannot be installed directly under CentOS 5.3.

I find out I need to do following before the installation :

1. edit /etc/redhat-release , and make it looks like :

RedHat Enterprise Linux ES release 5.4 (Nahant)

2. There are failed dependencies because libcrypto.so.4 and libssl.so.4 are missing . So got to reinstall them from openssl097a

% yum install openssl097a

After doing all above , openmanage can be installed straight away .

One enhancement of version 6.1 (as compared with ver 5.4 installed in other poweredge servers) is that it now shows the power consumption . It’s a quite good feature for energy saving !
