How to override Minimum Required Firmware Version MP

Which MP are you using - the agent-based Windows MP or the Out-Of-Band MP? Which component's firmware is the MP reporting as not up-to-date?

If the alert generated is  "Dell OMSS Firmware version mismatch"  then you have FW version lesser than minimum version.

If you don't want the alert to be shown you can disable the rule titled as "Dell OMSS Firmware version mismatch" but this doesn't prevent your server/ Storage Controller health from warning.

If you don't want health of Storage Controller that updates for its own, you can disable following UM's

On the Operation Manager Console----Go to the Authoring Pane---Go to the Monitors--- Go to the object named "Storage Controller"-----Select "Availability Health"--- You will get below UM's

1. Storage Contoller Status (Periodic)---Right click ----Click on  Overrides---Disable the UM- For all      the objects of Stotage Controller

2. Storage Controller Status (Event Triggered) ---same as above UM

Anyway up on disabling above UM's you will not able to see the health updates of Storage Controller any more

If you disable the UM's then it will disable the entire storage controller availabilty monitoring

Actually FW mismatch is added to the implementation of health computation internally which cannot be overridden externally.

Recommendation is upgrade to the min OMSA version

OR

If you see the alert saying "Dell OMSS Firmware version mismatch" then you can think it is caused only because of FW mismatch and proceed with it instead of disabling UM's that stops health monitoring of Storage Controller.

Will this only affect the firmware mismatch?  or will it disable the entire Storage Controller availability monitoring?

OK, thank you so much for the information provided.

It checks for VB SCRIPT engine version not for Storage Controller FW version.

We can't omit this code as checks for minimum vb script version required to run the UM script.

We cannot override the FW version.

By looking at the monitor, it seems to be based on the DellStoragePeriodicTrigger.vbs.  Within the script i believe there is a portion that discovers the engine version

'**********************************************************

' CheckVBScriptEngine()

' Check VBScript engine version:

'**********************************************************

Function CheckVBScriptEngine()

On Error Resume Next

Dim bIsCompatV,  var

   Const VBSCRIPT_MIN_VERSION = 56

   var = ((ScriptEngineMajorVersion * 10) + ScriptEngineMinorVersion)

   If ((var) < VBSCRIPT_MIN_VERSION) Then

 bIsCompatV = False

Else

bIsCompatV = True

End If

If Err <> 0 Then

CheckVBScriptEngine = Err.Number

Err.Clear

Else

CheckVBScriptEngine = bIsCompatV

End If

End Function

Is it possible to create an override ommiting the script from collecting the firmware information?

Welcome JUrbina. In fact we considered your query of having a override for the Minimum FW version. I will definitely come back to you once i find update on it.

I see that there is a new version of this MP.  Do you know if in this new MP provides the ability to override the check for FW version?

Thanks in advance.
