Hi,

OMSA 7.3.0.1 patch cannot be installed using the TRANFORM command. This would have corrupted the existing installation. so you have to repair the existing installation and then apply the patch.

Go to Program and Features, click on the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator (32 bit) or Dell OpenManage Server Administrator (64 bit) (what is installed) and run repair.

After repair completes successfully, Open a Command prompt "as administrator" and cd to the folder where you have downloaded the .msp patch file.

Then execute one of the following commands: "msiexec /update OM_7301_Sysmgmtx64_Patch.msp  /L*v c:\temp\patchx64_log.txt" or "msiexec /update OM_7301_Sysmgmtx86_Patch.msp  /L*v c:\temp\patchx86_log.txt" based on whether you 32 bit OMSA or 64 bit OMSA.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, sathya.

Sorry I meant with the patch command like this (I'm using WPKG hence the variables) :

msiexec.exe /i "%SOFTWARE%\dell\%shortname%\%version%\windows\SystemsManagementx64\SysMgmtx64.msi" PATCH="%SOFTWARE%\dell\%shortname%\%version%\windows\SystemsManagementx64\OM_7301_Sysmgmtx64_Patch.msp

But double clicking the file doesn't work and corrupts the installation so Dell should have some clear instructions included with the file.

I'll try again later today, thanks.
