Hi Achievement, OMSA has a feature called "Manage Remote Node" which will be seen on top most left navigation bar on the GUI.
This feature will allow you to manage remote system(s) from one centralized webserver. Due to removal of that you cannot manage that system from OpenManage Server Administrator webserver. For more details, Please look into the chapter 3 in the following doc http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/software/svradmin/6.2/en/UG/PDF/OM SAUG.pdf Thanks, Chandrasekhar R Dell | OpenManage -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Friday, May 14, 2010 9:10 PM To: linux-poweredge-Lists Subject: Linux-PowerEdge Digest, Vol 71, Issue 20 Send Linux-PowerEdge mailing list submissions to [email protected] To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to [email protected] You can reach the person managing the list at [email protected] When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Linux-PowerEdge digest..."

I'm running CentOS5.4 64bit and use yum to install redhat cluster site. i found packages conflict problem between and libcmpiCppImpl0-2.0.0Dell-1.1.el5.i386 and tog-pegasus (required by cluster-cim-0.12.1-2.el5.centos.x86_64) For installing redhat cluster suite, i need to remove the following package but can't sure any netgative impact. libcmpiCppImpl0 srvadmin-itunnelprovider srvadmin-standardAgent It there any major function of openmanage will be impacted? or any standard way to resolve this problem?

Thx Rainer ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Fri, 14 May 2010 17:40:16 +0200 From: Gianluca Cecchi <[email protected]> Subject: iscsi offload on rh el based servers guide? To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Hello, I found several guides (both Red Hat and Dell) about iscsi configuration, but it seems to me some doubts remain about configuration itself and functionality when using iscsi offload.... I can test two M610 blades, where I have RH EL 5.5 and RH EL 6 beta. Both are x86_64 systems. Below information from rh el 5.5 server lspci gives: 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5709S Gigabit Ethernet (rev 20) 01:00.1 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5709S Gigabit Ethernet (rev 20) 02:00.0 SCSI storage controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic SAS1068E PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS (rev 08) 03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5709S Gigabit Ethernet (rev 20) 03:00.1 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5709S Gigabit Ethernet (rev 20) 05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM57711 10-Gigabit PCIe 05:00.1 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM57711 10-Gigabit PCIe I was able to configure the two 10Gbit interfaces to connect to several volumes on a Dell EQL 6010XV storage array, using sw based iscsi. Also, I was able to configure dm-multipath so that each volume is seen by two paths. Some raw performance data show not more than 130-140MB/s (both by using single devices and multipath devices) where other Windows based blades, configured with Broadcom offload, reach more than 300MB/s on the same storage array. Trying to configure offload scsi on rh el I have these doubts: My 10Gb BCM57711 card has two mac addresses (actually I have two of these cards in total, to bind to the EQL). 00:10:18:58:E8:F8 base eth card for network 00:10:18:58:E8:F9 for iscsi offload (not seen from ifconfig, for example) 1) Do I have to configure an IP for both eth card and for the iscsi offload mac? If so must they be different? Or if I use offload, the nic is not assigned an ip at all? 2) Do the nic has to be configured anyway to start in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0? With something like this for example if without an ip: # Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM57711 10-Gigabit PCIe DEVICE=eth0 HWADDR=00:10:18:58:E8:F8 ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=static TYPE=Ethernet MTU=9000 3) Can I set MTU=9000 if using offload scsi? Is it supported? If I don't have instead to set the nic to start at boot, where to put the mtu parameter? 4) I configured this way the iscsi offload iface, under /var/lib/iscsi/ifaces dir: # cat bnx2i.00:10:18:58:e8:f9 # BEGIN RECORD 2.0-871 iface.iscsi_ifacename = bnx2i.00:10:18:58:e8:f9 iface.ipaddress = 10.10.100.178 iface.hwaddress = 00:10:18:58:e8:f9 iface.transport_name = bnx2i # END RECORD and this for the nic associated: [r...@orasvi2 ifaces]# ifconfig eth0 eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:10:18:58:E8:F8 inet addr:10.10.100.174 Bcast:10.10.100.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::210:18ff:fe58:e8f8/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:9000 Metric:1 RX packets:1683 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:47 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:155976 (152.3 KiB) TX bytes:4562 (4.4 KiB) Interrupt:114 Memory:dc800000-dcffffff I have this results: [r...@orasvi2 ifaces]# iscsiadm -m node -P1 Target: iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:0-8a0906-97d4b5e06-596000000264bc83-blg9-vol3 Portal: 10.10.100.30:3260,1 Iface Name: bnx2i.00:10:18:58:e8:f9 Iface Name: bnx2i.00:10:18:58:e8:fb Target: iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:0-8a0906-8904b5e06-b66000000204bc83-blg9-vol1 Portal: 10.10.100.30:3260,1 Iface Name: bnx2i.00:10:18:58:e8:f9 Iface Name: bnx2i.00:10:18:58:e8:fb Target: iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:0-8a0906-94c4b5e06-df9000000234bc83-blg9-vol2 Portal: 10.10.100.30:3260,1 Iface Name: bnx2i.00:10:18:58:e8:f9 Iface Name: bnx2i.00:10:18:58:e8:fb But actually I can connect only with one card and only to one node..... ;-( [r...@orasvi2 ifaces]# iscsiadm -m session -P1 Target: iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:0-8a0906-94c4b5e06-df9000000234bc83-blg9-vol2 Current Portal: 10.10.100.32:48140,1 Persistent Portal: 10.10.100.30:3260,1 ********** Interface: ********** Iface Name: bnx2i.00:10:18:58:e8:f9 Iface Transport: bnx2i Iface Initiatorname: iqn.1994-05.com.redhat:ab59ecbce6c Iface IPaddress: <empty> Iface HWaddress: 00:10:18:58:e8:f9 Iface Netdev: eth0 SID: 1 iSCSI Connection State: LOGGED IN iSCSI Session State: LOGGED_IN Internal iscsid Session State: NO CHANGE Note the Iface IPaddress: <empty> ...
