OM Essentials is already End of Life (EOL) developmentally, but Essentials won't be removed from support. As far as drawing a line regarding newer devices, Essentials is fully supported up through the 10th generation of servers, but at the 11th generation not all of the features will work correctly.
we also use openmanage/racadm extensivelly - to configure bios settings, attach virtual media, create raid configurations .. etc - I'd like to know what is the in-place replacement /if there is any/ that Dell recommends to use for automation instead of racadm cli for these tasks, since the way I understand it - racadm is not going to be supported past 2027.

Let me know if this helps.

Hello Chris,
sorry to resurrect an old thread..
