Dell Openmanage VE 5.0

[tdkmatt]

Hello

We have a M100e Blade cluster and we want to install Dell open manage onto each node, has anyone had luck installing Openmnagae onto stretch?

This is a thread getting it into V 4.0 - https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/how-to-install-dell-openmanage-7-1-in-proxmox-4.26588/

Us Dell types are going to have to wait for a Debian Stretch release of Openmanage. I've checked the repo and there's nothing yet. As I recall it took them a while to get around to Jessie...

You can keep an eye on the repo at linux.dell.com/repo/community/debian/dists/ to see when it becomes available.

I was involved in this thread:

https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/dell-openmanage-on-proxmox.15380/

Also, it was said on the Dell Linux-Poweredge forum that OpenManage for Debian 9 is planned for December 2017 release.

Hopefully not too far away, has anyone seen any updates regarding availability date?

I installed successfully from Jessie repo on stretch. But you can not install all, only the parts for GUI and disks.

Hrm, I coudnt get it installed on Proxmox 5.
I got some error about automatic pipelining disabled and it seemed to install the webserver and the storageservices 8.4 version but then when I execute
service dsm_om_connsvc start
I get error
Job for dsm_om_connsvc.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status dsm_om_connsvc.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

Can you help?

you need 2 packages from jessie to get openmanage 8.4 working on stretch currently.

wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/o/openslp-dfsg/libslp1_1.2.1-10+deb8u1_amd64.deb
dpkg -i libslp1_1.2.1-10+deb8u1_amd64.deb
wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.0.0_1.0.2l-1~bpo8+1_amd64.deb
dpkg -i libssl1.0.0_1.0.2l-1~bpo8+1_amd64.deb

Hi all,

Can you please confirm the steps to install Openmanage on Stretch? Using the Repo's?

I don't see any repo's yet for Stretch...

Thanks a lot!

use the openmanage jessie repo and install the 2 missing debs manually.

 

[homertester]

That worked like a charm! Thanks a lot

BTW, if you want to monitor openmanage with snmp,

you need to oveeride snmpd systemd service:

/etc/systemd/system/snmpd.service.d/override.conf
[Service]
ExecStart=
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/snmpd -Lsd -Lf /dev/null -u Debian-snmp -g Debian-snmp -f


(/etc/default/snmpd is not read anymore on stretch, and you need to remove -smux from snmp command line)

Next problem, it seems the command "omconfig" is no longer available.

I used the following code in the past to add custom alerts:

for I in `omconfig system alertaction | sed 's/ *(.*)//; s/>.*//; s/.*[:<] *// ; s/|/ /g;'`; do
echo $I;
omconfig system alertaction event=$I alert=true broadcast=true execappath="/usr/local/bin/om-alert.sh"
done

How can this be done?


Thanks!

Thanks!

on my side, I have "omconfig" correctly installed

/opt/dell/srvadmin/bin/omconfig

(apt-get install srvadmin-all)

 

[homertester]

Using the absolute path, it is working like a charm!

Thanks again
