Dell OpenManage可以查看dell服务器各个部件的运行状态，并且有配置存储，远程管理等功能，对远程管理服务器非常有用，之前只在windows 2003上安装过，在windows下安装起来很简单，今天因为要配置服务器的iDARC，又不能重启服务器，所以就在centos linux系统上安装了dell OpenManage，碰到了点麻烦，在这里记录下：
wget http://ftp.us.dell.com/sysman/OM_6.1.0_ManNode_A00.tar.gz
tar xvzf OM_6.1.0_ManNode_A00.tar.gz
cd linux/supportscripts
sh srvadmin-install.sh -x
提示：Unsupported Operating System. Can not proceed....
因为dell 只支持redhat EnterpriseLinux，看了下脚本，是以开发的项目名来区分Linux版本的，Centos linux 5.x是RHEL5重新编译的，在redhat-release内加上RHEL5的项目名Tikanga就行了。做如下更改：
vi /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 5.5 (Final) Tikanga
或
修改脚本将Santiago 修改为你系统的版本，如：CentOS release 6.2 (Final)
vi srvadmin-install.sh
将脚本中 grep -c "Santiago" /etc/redhat-release` -gt 0 为grep -c "CentOS release 6.2 (Final)"/etc/redhat-release` -gt 0
再运行：
sh srvadmin-install.sh -x
Installing the selected packages.

安装通过。
运行Dell OpenManage:
srvadmin-services.sh start
Starting mptctl:
Waiting for mptctl driver registration to complete:
[ OK ]
Starting Systems Management Device Drivers:
Starting dell_rbu: [ OK ]
Starting ipmi driver: Already started [ OK ]
Starting Systems Management Data Engine:

Starting dsm_sa_eventmgr32d: [ OK ]
Starting dsm_sa_snmp32d: [ OK ]
Starting DSM SA Shared Services: [ OK ]
Starting DSM SA Connection Service: [ OK ]
全是OK，说明启动OpenManage成功，OpenManage监听的端口为1311，在浏览器内打开URL：https://ip:1311/，输入系统的用户名密码进入。里面看到的功能和Windows平台上的基本一样。
测试OMSA:
OMSA有个命令行接口命令omreport可以获得各项硬件信息. 具体帮助参见:

srvadmin-services.sh disable
另外还有一种yum的方式安装OpenMagage，很简单:
wget -q -O - http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/OMSA_6.2/bootstrap.cgi | bash
yum install srvadmin-all
