OpenManage Server Administrator on Windows Server 2003 R2
Hi: When I install the Dell OM Server Administrator on a Windows 2003 R2 system, one of the "Informational Messages" that appears before the install indicates that the built-in Hardware Management tools available with Server 2003 R2 is not installed. However, if I go to install the tools (the IPMI drivers), it says I have to remove any other IPMI driver first. If I have used the Dell system setup disk to install Server 2003 R2, are any Dell IPMI drivers installed, or can I safely ignore this warning? Thanks

If you used the latest Dell Setup disk to install the system, you should be good to go.

"For Server Administrator, it is recommended that you use the Windows Server 2003 R2 IPMI driver instead of the internal IPMI support. If your system is running Windows Server 2003 R2 or Windows Storage Server R2, it is recommended that after you install or upgrade Server Administrator, you also install the optional Hardware Management component of R2."
Also nowhere is any information to determine which IPMI driver is installed in bios already .
So which is it?
and please be clear so I can procede.
Thanks in advance.
