"omreport chassis *" and "omreport system *" are ok. # omreport storage controller No controllers found My system: OMSA 6.5. CentOS 6.2. PERC H710. PowerEdge R620. I did the installation using yum: # wget -q -O - http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/bootstrap.cgi | bash # yum install srvadmin-all dell_ft_install I´m starting to think there is no support for H710 on OMSA 6.5. Am i right? I found the 7.0 version on Ubuntu repository, but the latest version on the official repository is 6.5. Any date for 7.0 to be avaiable? Thanks, Andre </pre> André Luciano Dias 2012-05-24T15:39:04 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.hardware.dell.poweredge/42536 <pre>Hello, installed CentOS 6.2 x86_64 + updates on a PE2950 generation II server Each time I try to reboot the server, it stops like in this image: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0BwoPbcrMv8mvVGVVc2tXU2JobEk How can I debug this problem? Until today this server had rh el 5.7 x86_64 and didn't show this problem. fw levels are ok drac5 fw 1.51 BMC 2.37 bios 2.6.1 perc 5/i 5.2.2-0072 This reboot problem btw prevents me to update bios to latest 2.7.0 through PE2950_BIOS_LX_2.7.0.BIN file. In fact when I have to reboot the server, it stops and so I'm forced to power cycle and I get back my 2.6.1 version... This behaviour is the same with and without the 6.5.0 omsa for rhel6 installed (they seems to work ok, after changing redhat-release file) Thanks in advance.

We now setup a Linux Bonding (Debian Squeeze latest with ifenslave-2.6) using settings below and i want to ask if its okay or not to use one Broadcom and the Intel Card in a Bond together or if its better to use NICs from the same vendor for that (the 3rd NIC is a normal iface) We saw issues with SLES11 on R310 while bonding them (mode4 LACP) and using an IPSec Tunnel over this with the following error. so i want to ask 2012:05:24-09:42:22 seth kernel: [659323.689392] ppp0 received packet on queue 2, but number of RX queues is 1 bonding on that 510 is mode 1 active/backup. - here the config (eth0/1 is internal broadcom, eth2 intel pcie) - i dont think that this causes similar errors because only one card is active and not both the same time like on the SLES11 we have a mode=4 bonding. auto lo iface lo inet loopback # auto bond0 iface bond0 inet static address 10.1.30.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 10.1.30.1 bond_mode active-backup bond_miimon 100 bond_downdelay 200 bond_updelay 200 bond_primary eth0 slaves eth0 eth2 # auto eth1 iface eth1 inet static address 172.1.30.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 </pre> Martin Seener 2012-05-24T09:21:25 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.hardware.dell.poweredge/42534 <pre>Has anyone successfully got Debian Squeeze running on a 12th gen PowerEdge (R[67]20 mainly).

I have a serious problem in our data center and no clue why. we have an R510 (internal Broadcom GigE Dual-NIC) and one Single-Port Intel GigE PCIe Card. After a reboot the order of the NIC in our Debian Squeeze seems to change, that eth0 is not the Intel Card anymore but instead one of the internal Broadcoms. After another Reboot this changes back so our network config in /etc/network/interface (all static) works again. Is that a configuration problem in the BIOS/Internal NIC MBA? or in Debian itself and how can i prevent this? It seems that this problem only exists on the Debian Machine since we have two R310 with 2 internal and a Intel Quad-Port Card but with SLES11 (Astaro Security Gateway v8.3) on it and after a lot of reboots theres no NIC change. Thanks for any help!

I have two questions: - is there a way to disable root login for OSMA? I tried to create a new omarolemap file with only the users I want to logon but root user can still login. - I have succesfully created dclrdy64.ini file but the application doesn't execute when an error occures. On OSMA Alert Manager page I can see for exapmle Execute Aplication On for the Chassis Intrusion Detected event. I also set Alert on Console and Broadcast Message on for this one. And when I open the chassis I get the warning on the console but the application doesn't execut. I have this in my dclrdy64.ini: [n] settings=256 epfName=/opt/dell/send_alert And this is what I have in send_alert echo "test OK" &gt; /opt/teszt.out /usr/sbin/sendmail user&lt; at &gt;domain.com &lt; /opt/dell/dellalert.eml And yes, the file is executeable.

It has 4 1gb NIC, NIC1/NIC2 enabled for "Enabled with PXE " and completely disabled NIC2/3 DHCP server configured to listen for mac of NIC1, it received the request from this mac only once and offered it, then download the kernel and try to install and stuck with configuring TCP/IP and there is no subsequent DHCP request from it.

Songara 2012-05-21T16:16:31 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.hardware.dell.poweredge/42492 <pre>We just bought and set up a good number of PowerEdge C2100 machines for a Hadoop cluster. We've been seeing a lot of stability issues with them, though, which has been rather frustrating. On a sizable percentage of the machines the box starts to fail, and when we go into the Linux (CentOS 6.2) console we see things like "rejecting I/O to offline device". The box seems to lose all ability to write to disk during these episodes, as nothing ever makes in into the server logs. The system event logs in the BMC show messages like "PCIE Error: Critical Event sensor, bus fatal error was asserted" and "NMI: Critical Event sensor, Soft NMI was asserted". We have Pro Support for these systems, and Dell seems to have successfully fixed one of them the other day (by replacing the motherboard, PCI riser, and both disk controller cards). So I'm not looking for help with a diagnosis or a fix. But I have to say I'm pretty surprised and disappointed at what a large percentage of our order is suffering from these issues, and am starting to wonder whether this model of machine is a bit of a lemon. Just wondering if anyone else out there has been having equally bad luck with these machines and/or this is a known issue that's been written up somewhere already. Thanks, DR </pre> David Rosenstrauch 2012-05-18T20:57:50 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.hardware.dell.poweredge/42491 <pre> New system with local boot disks RAID 1 with a H700 controller. After enabling multipath, it seems /boot was added to it, so I could not restart the multipathd daemon.

Now system won't boot: fsck.ext4: Device or resource busy while trying to open /dev/sda1 Filesystem mounted or opened exclusively by another program? Give root password for maintenance I can go in, but root is mounted read only so I cannot undo my back out. Any clues?

We have configured the standard BIOS settings appropriately (disable c-cstates/c1e, max performance, etc---a familiar drill from previous-gen servers). However, what we are seeing in our simulations and testing is inconsistent performance results. Even doing the same exact test, one right after the other, the results vary substantially (up AND down). A full-on simulation one day to the next can vary by 50%. With the previous-gen (11G) servers, I had a similar performance issue that was ultimately fixed by a BIOS update (but six months after the 11G release). I'm hoping to not see a repeat of this kind of issue. I'm working the formal channels with Dell on this, but just thought I'd throw a feeler out there to see if anyone else is seeing similar issues. Thanks!

We rely on the repository to provide us with the neccessary OMSA and Firmware updates. The lack of updates are becoming a problem when requesting hardware support from Dell. The general first response to any warranty failed hardware replacement is to ask if we are at the latest firmware revision... Generally we are up to date, in regards to what is published on the repo, however since that repo is out of date there's a bit of manual leg work involved in applying the updates published at support.dell.com. This also breaks our otherwise clean update and deployment practices. Are there other Dell provided yum repositorys that we should be using ?

Everything went well except for a openssl 0.9.8 dependency in various packages. For the Debian squeeze (stable) and sid (unstable), there is a openssl 0.9.8 library available, but for wheezy "only" openssl 1.0.1 is available in the repositories. Apparently, a previous update of openssl 0.9.8 to 1.0.1 went well with OMSA 6.5 already installed, but with OMSA upgrade it refuses to upgrade to OMSA 7.0 packages that depend on libssl0.9.8. I will check if I can install libopenssl 0.9.8 from unstable, but maybe the packages from the Dell Linux deb repository could relax their dependency to libssl0.9.8 | libssl1.0.1?

Not able to proceed. Starting Systems Management Data Engine: Failed to start because system is not supported Package libsmbios-bin from squeeze repository was installed. To fix the issue I configured OMSA_6.5 repository in addition to latest, and installed the following packages: smbios-utils (pulls python-libsmbios, removes libsmbios-bin) libsmbios2 After that dataeng loaded succesfully and seems to give reports.

(log is in spanish). omarolemap has the following permissions: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1212 may 17 12:07 /opt/dell/srvadmin/etc/omarolemap Any clue what permissions must it have? I tried 444 and 664 without success.

There doesn't seem to be any online explanation of this diagram and the C410x BMC User's Guide shows the port mapping screenshot but doesn't explain what it means or how to configure it. Does anyone know of a reference guide or howto on configuring the GPU to iPASS port mapping? I have two nodes installed in the C6100 but for now, I want to use three M2090 GPUs in the C410x connected to the HIC on one of the nodes connected via a single iPASS cable. I have installed the GPUs in slots 1, 2 and 15 on the C410x - is this optimal?
