DSET Required Packages?

2010-03-19 Thread Steve Jenkins
We're building a full inventory of all the hardware in our rack, so we're using Dell's DSET Linux binary (http://support.dell.com/dset/) to build a report for each server. So far, it's going great - but on one of the boxes we get the following output as DSET runs: "NOTE: Not found one or mo

You need to install OpenIPMI and then run "srvadmin-sevices.sh restart". That works on my systems. Steve Steve Nielsen VP, Open Source Engineering | comScore, Inc. (NASDAQ:SCOR) o +1 (312) 775-6473 | sniel...@comscore.com ..

Did you actually install srvadmin-all ? I know it seems like it should work with just the storage packages, but I think some of the underlying services are set up by other packages. 6.2 is now working for me with clean install on CentOS 5 with PERC6i and SAS5i controllers. Haven't tried it on

It should work this way: 1. goto RAID BIOS 2. offline both RAID1 HDDs 3. create a RAID0 in hotspare drive 4. change 'bootable VD' 5. do your restore tests To go back to your original configuration I would recommend to just online one of your both RAID1 HDDs and rebuild the other if all is fine.
