Hi, thanks for the reply. Yes, that is the manual but I am not able to open a console

the .PDF manual

"How do I install Dell OpenManage Server Administrator with only the CLI features?
By choosing not to install the Server Administrator Web Server, you get CLI features only."

I have installed, however, once it is installed, how do I access? I open command line but try to execute omreport command for example from cmd, but it seems it is not installed.
I've never installed it with just the CLI feaures. I beleive the only way to access it through CLI is to run the normal install and access it though CLI afterwords if that access method you select.

I use that Open Manage ap on physical servers running Win 2003 and 2008. I've never had a problem. We continue to run it weekly to check servers me maintain.
If you or your company is the registered owner of the server, you can get the servce tag and call Dell basic server support. I've called them on ocasion and they are very god. The provide basic server support for the life of the server to the registered user on a 24x7 basis. It sounds like you should get them involved.

Good luck with your server.
