Hi Tom,

Most likely this is some sort of bug in OpenManage, or something went
wrong during upgrade. You should confirm the fault by running

  omreport chassis pwrmonitoring

Investigate the "Status" field. The only accepted value is "Ok".

Sorry, no. Very often these problems are resolved simply by restarting
OpenManage on the monitored server, or a reboot. The next step is to
re-install OpenManage in case something was missed during
install/upgrade. If all else fails, contact Dell support.
