Russ, I haven't done this myself *yet* but I'm in a similar situation here is my working plan: - install OS and OMSA - get OMSA to work with full srvadmin-all and each server - install Splunk on a dedicated monitoring/alerts server - reconfigure snmpd to send traps to splunk server - tie IPMI of each server into Splunk http://www.splunk.com/ You could use Dell ITA as well but it is windows-only. And I hate that ;) BTW, I'm at step 2 right now, getting to step 3 next week or the week after that, I hope. I don't know of a way to setup an OMSA "master" admin server on Linux to monitor and manage all alerts, traps and IPMI check on all my Linux servers...
