Dell OpenManage Server Administrator is a secure Web tool for managing
individual Dell(TM)PowerEdge(TM) servers. Using this tool, an
administrator with an Internet/intranet connection can manage the server
from any location using either a graphical user interface (GUI) that runs
in a Web browser or a command line interface (CLI) that is accessed
through the command prompt.

Fixes & Enhancements

WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 4.3 OF DELL OPENMANAGE SERVER ADMINISTRATOR?

* Added support for the Dell PowerEdge(TM) 1855, 6800 and 6850 systems.

* Leveraged native install technologies for each operating system
for Server Administrator installs. For Windows, the Windows
Installer Microsoft Software Installation (MSI) package file (.msi)
is used.

* Updated Active Directory Snap-In Utility

* Added default installation support for Dell OpenManage Server
Administrator Storage Management Service under Microsoft(R) Windows(R)
and Red Hat(R) Enterprise Linux.

This release provides an enhanced Storage Management Service. The
enhanced Storage Management Service provides the same storage management
and configuration functions as Array Manager. Unlike Array Manager,
however, the enhanced Storage Management Service features are accessible
from the Server Administrator graphical and command line interfaces.

Note: Product documentation for the enhanced Storage Management Service
is provided as online help. The online help refers to this service
as "Dell OpenManage Storage Management" and as "Storage Management".

The enhanced Storage Management Service:

* Enables you to view the status of local and remote storage attached to
a monitored system.

* Allows you to perform controller and enclosure functions for all
supported RAID and non-RAID controllers and enclosures from a single
graphical or command line interface without the use of the controller
BIOS utilities.

* Protects your data by configuring data redundancy, assigning hot
spares, or rebuilding failed drives.

* Provides a graphical interface that is wizard-driven with features
for novice and advanced users and a detailed online help.

* Provides a fully-featured and scriptable command line interface.

* Supports SCSI, SATA, and ATA. Does not support Fibre Channel.

NOTE: This release of the enhanced Storage Management Service does not
provide Microsoft(R) Windows volume and disk management or Novell
NetWare support. In addition, fibre channel is not supported.

Note: For more information on the basic and enhanced Storage Management
Service and their relationship to Array Manager, see the Server
Administrator User's Guide.

* Implement lifecycle management -- allows upgrade from Systems Management
CD version 3.0 and later only.
