Hello-

I can confirm this problem exists on officially supported RHEL as well.  We 
tested this too to rule out a CentOS issue as well as getting Dell to actually 
look at the issue and not blow it off to a CentOS problem.

OMSA itself still functions.  It still reports status to ITAssist and sends out 
SNMP traps, etc.  It's just the web interface which does not function.

Subject: OMSA 6.1 is broken - do Dell intend to fix it?

Hi folks,

It seems a number of people are reporting issues with running OMSA 6.1.

For us we get problems if we install OMSA 6.1 onto a CentOS server 
running OpenVZ:
> ..the OMSA web interface on
> port 1311 no longer works and omreport outputs the following error:
> '/usr/bin/omreport: line 5: 15319 Segmentation fault
> /etc/delloma.d/oma/bin/omcliproxy omreport "$@"'.

Other people are reporting issues when they have VPNs running. The 
common issue seems to be the presence of unusual network interfaces.

It seems abnormal to me that I've not seen any comment from a Dell 
person yet. I'm aware it's August so maybe everyone is on vacation?

We run CentOS 5 and I appreciate Dell are only offering best-effort 
support through this list, is there anyone that can reproduce this 
problem on a RHEL installation so we can get it escalated?

We have an installed base of 2950s and we've worked around the issue  by 
continuing to run OMSA 5.5. Our newest batch of servers are r710s and 
the dell repos don't offer OMSA 5.5 for these, and require us to use 
OMSA 6.1.

If this is not resolved it's likely to become a show-stopper for us and 
we'll need to look at solutions from other vendors.

best regards,
Simon.
