Symptomen

The following example CLI command with Dell OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA) 10.3 and older may fail:

omconfig system alertaction event=watchdogasr execappath='/usr/sbin/om_alerts.sh’

The following error results:

Error! XML Transformation failed.

The OMSA web UI is not affected by this issue.

Oorzaak

OMSA has an XML parser error when encountering forward slashes with the execappath option.

Oplossing

Dell Engineering will address this in a future OSMA release.

In the meantime, use backward slashes for the path (example: execappath=’\usr\bin\om_alerts.sh’).
