We've been running CentOS 4 for some time now on all our Dell servers. Our primary application is certified for RHEL, but CentOS is not 'officially' supported. It hasn't been an issue thus far. But now, our application vendor has certified Ubuntu, so we are considering switching to Ubuntu so we can have an officially supported free Linux platform.
I know Dell does not provide OMSA for Ubuntu, but I am aware of the packages at ftp://ftp.sara.nl/pub/sara-omsa/dists/dell/sara/ and have found many how-to pages on getting it running. But what can you tell me about practical experience with those packages? What is the long term outlook for them? Are there any significant known issues? I see that they currently lag behind the latest Dell versions. What is their typical release cycle? What about support for the latest Dell hardware? Last time I checked, Dell's statement was that there are no plans to directly provide OMSA for Ubuntu. Is that still true?
