RAID and non-RAID controller supported servers, operating systems, Firmware, and Driver versions
Starting with OpenManage Server Administrator version 5.0, only the enhanced Storage Management Service is supported. The Storage Management Service allows you to configure and manage your storage devices from within Server Administrator.
NOTE:The Storage Management Service that is mentioned in this guide is the enhanced Storage Management Service. Server Administrator no longer supports the basic Storage Management Service (also known as Array Manager).
Most of the systems management releases support management of RAID controllers in the form of PERC cards, and some systems management releases also support SATA controllers. System administrators are responsible for monitoring the compatibility of their storage devices of the systems that must consist of a clear matrix that shows the elements that are compatible with a particular storage controller. Each storage controller version in turn supports a specific array of elements, including:
Version of the Storage Management Service
Dell system
Firmware version number required for a particular controller
Supported operating systems, where each operating system requires a specific driver.
For more information about Storage Management Services, see the
Dell Server Administrator Storage Management User's Guide at
OpenManage Manuals.
