Hi,

I'm looking into purchasing a few Dell Servers and installing it with CentOS 4.1. It comes with this software called the the Dell OpenManage Software Kit for PowerEdge that allows for remote monitoring of the servers.

Has anyone out there successfully installed the OpenManage s/ware? Is it compatible with CentOS 4.1?

Any opinions / feedback is welcome.

My experience with Open Manage is that it's a Windows-based product. It's quite good, although there seems to be a penchant for it to get smacked around by Microsoft updates.
