First build out a CentOS 5.1 machine 3,000 miles away using Dell's DRAC card. And only needing client to connect DRAC card to network. Using CentOS ISO files on a Windows machine with Remote Desktop turned on..VERY COOL.
Used the following site to minimize running services.

Using
http://www.fundraisinghosting.com/wp/2007/07/20/dell-omsa-52-installation-on-centos-45/
This website has all the documentation and lists each piece that could be installed separately.

First command didn't go so well:
[root@vm01 /]# wget -q -O http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/bootstrap.cgi | bash
bash: line 1: wget:: command not found
bash: line 2: Usage:: command not found
bash: line 4: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `''

Reconfigured firewall so it allows port 1311 thru.
I couldn't get on the website but after
srvadmin-services.sh start
I was able to go to https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1311
This is a built in webserver. Apache is not needed.
Awesome interface!.. But still can't do what I would like to do which is to have it email me if a hard drive crashes.. with the DRAC 5 that also ties into this website nicely, I can set it up to email for lots of other things..but not the most probable event like a hard drive failure.
One email from the PowerEdge mailing list said to look at Nagios or ITA to send out alerts for storage.
