Hello everyone.

I'm running into a problem and I'm wondering if anyone has seen anything very similar or if I'm breaking new ground with it.

I have a system that I just got, it's a Dell PE R710 with the new H700 RAID card. I installed it with SL5.3 (Our current version.) and when loading the srvadmin tools (directly from the Dell site) I have been finding that the daemons don't continue to run. Here's a small snippet from my system log:

Apr 23 12:33:50 xxxxxxxx Server Administrator: Instrumentation Service EventID: 1001 Server Administrator startup complete
Apr 23 12:33:51 xxxxxxxx dataeng: dsm_sa_eventmgrd shutdown succeeded
Apr 23 12:33:58 xxxxxxxx dataeng: dsm_sa_datamgrd shutdown succeeded
Apr 23 12:33:59 xxxxxxxx instsvcdrv: dell_rbu device driver unloaded

After the start process finishes (first line), the next three lines show the daemons shutting down. It continues to try to respawn the services only to have them continue to die.

The start sequence is:
/opt/dell/srvadmin/sbin/srvadmin-service.sh start
[short pause........]
omreport storage vdisk
[a normal output from the omreport about vdisks.]
[another short pause.....]
omreport storage vdisk
[error, can't find any controllers]

It is at this point, you can see the dataeng trying to restart the dsm_sa daemons over and over again. (Clarification, they start then stop.)

I built a RHEL5.3 system and the tools don't seem to be having a problem.

Before I go digging into it much more I thought I'd ask if anyone else has had any experience with this problem.

Thanks for everyone's time and use of the forum.
