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 ..

I disagree -- as long as there is a demonstrated need for the newer library and Dell's reply earlier implied there was - though I find it a bit hard to believe. Many packages worth this way -- using RPATH and/or LD_LIBRARY_PATH -- especially for older systems like RHEL6 when they need newer

I posted to list a few weeks ago about similar issue, so add to the list libdnet.so.1 which is part of OMSA and ends up replacing the system libdnet.so.1 due to files added to /etc/ld.so.conf.d. Using RPATH is a simple solution to this problem. - Trey -- Trey Dockendorf HPC Systems Engineer
