Hello thanks for choosing Dell. I'm just wondering if the installation has  been done properly ever.

I followed the installation guide, made sure the Windows deployment kits were up to date before.  Checked all the compatibilities.  Not sure where to look.

I folllowed these docs:

https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-us/server-deployment-pack-v4.1/dsdpv4_1ugpubs/dell-driver-cab-files?guid=guid-8b6d3203-5e14-4409-8e4a-ee573579bece&lang=en-us

https://dl.dell.com/topicspdf/server-deployment-pack-v41_install-guide_en-us.pdf

I can see under 'Application Management > Packages> Dell PowerEdge Deployment' but under boot images when I right click i don't see Dell.... as an option like in the user guide.

It sounds like the steps outlined below didnt work, or that the overall DSDP had an issue integrating in.

I would suggest that you retry the steps and see. 


Also on a side note, this tool isn't really used as much since the release of the OpenManage Enterprise plugin for it, so that may be an option for you to consider.

No, you would need to use openmanage and then configure as outlined in the documents here

Can we use the openmanage plugin if we don't have openmanage?

openmanage is something we need to pay for correct?

Yes, that is correct. 

Regarding the issue you have I would make sure it definitely imported the CAB, and if so after that I would reinstall DSDP.

Based on the image I shared previously

You should be able to locate the CAB files on the support page for the specific platform. Another option would be to call in to the System Management team and work with them, as they would be able to work on it directly with you.

You will need to enter a svc tag for a system in order to process through.

You would call in to your regional support and let them know the product you are working with and then request the System Mgmt/Openmanage group. They should be able to route you to them.
