My colleague Jean-Marie de Boer found a workaround by tweaking the repo file to point it to a slightly different location:
[root@somewhere ~]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/dell-omsa-repository.repo [dell-omsa-indep] name=Dell OMSA repository - Hardware independent baseurl=https://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/DSU_22.08.12/os_dependent/RHEL7_64/ gpgcheck=0 gpgkey=http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/RPM-GPG-KEY-dell http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/RPM-GPG-KEY-libsmbios enabled=1 failover=priority [dell-omsa-specific] name=Dell OMSA repository - Hardware specific baseurl=https://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/DSU_22.08.12/os_dependent/RHEL7_64/ gpgcheck=0 gpgkey=http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/RPM-GPG-KEY-dell http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/RPM-GPG-KEY-libsmbios enabled=1 failover=priority After that, I was able to `yum install srvadmin-all`. Hope this helps anyone. Disclaimer: this appears to work but don’t blame me or my colleague if anything goes wrong.

Dropping support for Omsa without an announcement seems very bad form. (I've searched and can't find it, can anyone?)

It turns out, Dell no longer supports OpenManage on RHEL 7 and compatible systems. I'm quite disappointed. We're now faced with the choice of not keeping systems up-to-date, or a lot of work upgrading them to EL8 or EL9, while RedHat still supports EL7 until the end of 2024.
