openmanage takes down eth0 on starting up

NocBox1,

It sounds like an issue with the NIC firmware being out of date and the new OMSA is having issues with it. Would you be able to update the firmware on the NIC and reinstall the OMSA application, I am sure that will resolve the issues.

Here is the link to the updated Firmware version -

Also here is the OMSA version needed - http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/DriverDetails/Product/poweredge-r300?driverId=T8RHG&osCode=RHEL5&fileId=2998641136&languageCode=EN&categoryId=SM

Let me know how it goes.

Hi,

Thanks for your help, I tried updating the nic firmware to come across the following errror:

I also had an error installing the dell software despite libcrypto.so.6 being installed at /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.6

NoxBox1,

is this server in production currently or may we power it down? I would like to boot to this OMSA Live ISO and then run the firmware update from there. 

The download is located here - http://linux.dell.com/files/openmanage-contributions/omsa-65-live/OMSA65-CentOS6-x86_64-LiveDVD.iso

Let me know how it goes.
