Although, seeing as these Dell servers can also ship with RedHat, might be worth having a look at the Dell Site for management tools for Redhat, they may be rpms, but it might give you a place to start searching, ie, source of the rpm.

Is there somewhere to learn more about the RAID management on this machine under linux? Are there tools available for monitoring and managing the array? BTW - What file system are you using?

That is, can you use the serial port for accessing the bios at boot? -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
