The following statement is an important general issue regarding the installation and configuration of the Connection: * If you have a 2.x or older version of the Connection installed, you must uninstall it before installing the Connection version 3.1. If you have version 3.0 installed, you can install version 3.1 as an upgrade without uninstalling version 3.0 first. ###################################################################### KNOWN ISSUES ###################################################################### NOTE: This section describes only the latest known issues for the Connection version 3.1. See "Frequently Asked Questions" in the "Dell OpenManage Connection for HP OpenView NNM User's Guide Version 3.1" for additional information about resolving possible issues. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Discovery Issues ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * The discovery of Dell systems across different subnets fails if the domain naming system (DNS) server is absent or improperly configured. * Systems installed with both HP OpenView NNM 6.4 and Dell OpenManage systems management software are not reclassified as Dell managed systems on the HP OpenView NNM submap. As a result, submap application launch, SNMP queries, and SNMP trap generation for Dell OpenManage systems management software are not available for these systems. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Status and Alerting Issues ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * If a Dell-discovered system (node) in the HP OpenView NNM submap has not been previously enumerated, an alert from that system may be received without a corresponding change in the HP OpenView NNM submap's global status. When this issue occurs, enumeration of the node map (by way of a mouse-click) results in proper propagation of the global status for this and all subsequent alerts received from the system. ###################################################################### HISTORY ###################################################################### This section provides historical information about the new features that were implemented in the previous version of Connection for HP OpenView NNM. ********************************************************************** DELL OPENMANAGE(TM) CONNECTION FOR HP OPENVIEW NNM Version 3.0 ********************************************************************** ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Release Highlights ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * Dell objects discovered by HP OpenView NNM were no longer populated into the Dell OpenManage IT Assistant database as one-to-one management is performed by using Dell OpenManage Server Administrator. * The Connection no longer installed Dell OpenManage systems management software applications. Applications were installed separately to be launched by the Connection. * The Connection supported in-context launch of Server Administrator, as well as DRAC III, DRAC III/XT, ERA, and ERA/O Web consoles. * The Connection supported asset management (service tags and asset tags for the discovered Dell systems). * The in-context launch of IT Assistant was replaced by the Server Administrator one-to-one management console. ###################################################################### Information in this document is subject to change without notice.
