Installing Intel® Server Control (ISC)

Managed Server Preparation

ISC uses the event-logging feature of the BIOS for system management status and information. To enable this feature for each server to be managed with ISC, you must boot the server(s) using the System Setup Utility (SSU) and set the appropriate options under System Management Options.

Compatibility and Upgrade Issues

The following paragraphs describe compatibility and upgrade issues for:

•Linux Red Hat 7.1 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS 2.1

•LANDesk Server Manager (LDSM)

•Windows 2000 Advanced Server

Linux Red Hat

For installation on systems using Linux Red Hat 7.1 or Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS 2.1, be aware of the following:

•Remote ISC installation is not available.

•Additional steps are required to configure the Linux DMI service provider.

•Additional steps are required to configure the SNMP-DMI mapper.

•ISC (with TAM) 3.5.3 supports Linux Red Hat 7.1 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS 2.1.

LANDesk® Server Manager (LDSM)

If you have an earlier version of LDSM on your network, be aware of the following:

•The ISC-managed server installation will not upgrade the DMI service provider or any

DMI database that is already installed on the managed server. However, if a service provider is not found, ISC installs a DMI 2.0 service provider.

•The ISC server installation process installs the remote procedure call (RPC) transports (DCE and ONC) if they are not available on the managed server.

•ISC ships with the DMI 2.0s Service Provider for Windows NT. The 2.0s version is an extension of the Service Provider that supports security. ISC does not use those features, but they are available under Windows NT for possible use by other DMI 2.0s-compliant software.
