[EXTERNAL EMAIL] I will add: Even though the official system requirements for OME list Windows Server, you can install OME on Windows 7. However, I've only tested the monitoring functions of OME. My firewall is setup such that updating could not possibly work, so I don't know for sure that

Hi Killian, Yes sadly OME is windows. We have hundreds of Linux servers with 10s of thousands of virtual servers all linux and only 2 windows installs. One for OME and one for SANHQ. I believe Dell is working towards a Linux version as some of their other tools have made it into that space ..

Hi Jeff, We have dual direction monitoring. 1) OME does regular status polling of all devices. This is just a dumb "hey are you there" check. 2) We have all DRACs configured to send snmp alerts to OME and we have all alert options enabled. We have OME configured to send critical alert

Dells OOB options work quite well. Either OME to fully update firmware remotely over DRAC connection or just use OME for firmware version awareness and manually update firmware through DRAC. I left Dell OS level tools years ago due to memory leaks and incompatibility issues. Cameron On Tue,
