www.dell.com | support.dell.com Information Update-Dell OpenManage Server Support Kit Version 4.3 This document is to inform you about the updated Dell OpenManage™ version 4.3 server support kit and provides the following information: • Dell OpenManage version 4.3 features and enhancements • Dell™ Server Update Utility overview • Upgrading your Dell OpenManage systems management software with the Dell OpenManage server support kit version 4.3 • Dell OpenManage server support kit version 4.3 contents Dell OpenManage Version 4.3 Features and Enhancements The Dell OpenManage server support kit version 4.3 implements native operating system installation tools to install systems management software on your Dell PowerEdge™ systems (for example, Microsoft® Installer Utility [MSI], Red Hat® Package Manger [RPM], and Novell® IPS). The new installation procedure provides faster software installations and smaller package sizes, as well as dependency checking and native operating system installation features. On PowerEdge systems running the Microsoft Windows® operating system, you can automatically update Dell OpenManage products through future Dell OpenManage service pack releases. Red Hat and Novell updates will also be consistent with their respective operating system install technologies. See the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Compatibility Guide located on the Dell Support website at support.dell.com for information on updating your specific PowerEdge system. Dell Server Update Utility Overview The Dell Server Update Utility (SUU) identifies and applies driver and firmware updates to your PowerEdge system. SUU compares the drivers and firmware versions on your system with the components installed on the SUU CD repository and allows you to apply the necessary updates to your system, if required. Before you install Dell OpenManage 4.3 on your PowerEdge system, run the SUU to ensure that your system is running the latest drivers and firmware. See the Dell Server Update Utility 1.0 User's Guide located at the Dell Support website at support.dell.com for a list of supported PowerEdge systems and operating systems. NOTE: The Dell OpenManage Subscription Service CD Kit includes the Dell PowerEdge Updates CD. This utility is not included with the Dell OpenManage server support kit version 4.3 that ships with PowerEdge systems, but is available from the Dell Support website at support.dell.com. January 2005
