Open Manage Install on ESX (documentation)

Question

The 'installing Dell Openmanage Software in a VMware ESX Server Software Environment' and the install is pretty good. I would like to see a small change for those of us that don't read the document cover to cover :-) In section 6.1 the first main bullet is to increase the service console memory by 128mb for OM 4.5 on ESX 2.5.x This should really be added to each section of Installing Dell OpenManage n.n on ESX n.n.x section. You may want to even make it bold. Since we were install OM 5.x on 3.x, we didn't read installing 4.x on 2.5.x

Thanks.' sorry for the delayed response. You don't have to increase the memory with OM 5.x and 3.x. With the latest versions of OM and the latest version of ESX, we found that the default service console memory is sufficient for OM agents. Only for older OM and ESX versions you need to increase the memory. Bala.
