Dell EMC OpenManage Enterprise Version 3.5 User's Guide

WARNING Unauthorized users can obtain OS-level access to the OpenManage Enterprise appliance bypassing Dell EMC's security restrictions. One possibility is to attach the VMDK in another Linux VM as a secondary drive, and thus getting OS partition access, whereby OS-level login credentials can possibly be altered. Dell EMC recommends that customers encrypt the drive (image file) to make unauthorized access difficult. Customers must also ensure that for any encryption mechanism used, they can decrypt files later. Else, the device would not be bootable.
