Just a quick update: it's definitely the C2100, as Wayne pointed out. The packages installed without issue on a T710.
Now I'm off to work on another monitoring solution for th C2100...

It is possible that this is contributing to the failures you are seeing. Even if you can get OMSA successfully installed and running, at best you will have a subset of the functionality available on non-"C" versions of PowerEdge. I have not worked with the C2100 so can only guess what will be missing. Highly unlikely you would have storage management unless you have a PERC card. BIOS setup and iDrac (non-BMC) features will probably be missing. Some features that are based on standard interfaces such as SMBIOS inventory data and sensor monitoring via IPMI, probably will work. I know this is not the answer you were looking for, but better to know now so that you don't spend a lot of time trying to get the install to work. If your primary interest is in sensor monitoring, you might be better off to focus on using IPMI Tool.
