For now, send us a tar ball of the directory, and I'll take a look, maybe test 
it, and we should try and merge the three sets of templates.

You can find them in subversion, 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/devmon/  ->Code->SVN Browse, which will get 
you here: http://devmon.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/devmon/, we're working in 
the trunk at present: 
http://devmon.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/devmon/trunk/templates/dell-poweredge/

Using OMSA (Dell's official software).

These are the commands I used on RHEL4 or RHEL3:
# RHEL4
smart update; smart install -y net-snmp srvadmin-isvc srvadmin-storage; 
echo "rocommunity xxx ip.of.dev.mon" >> /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf ; service snmpd 
restart; service instsvcdrv restart ;service dataeng restart;service 
dsm_om_shrsvc restart

# RHEL3
yum -y install net-snmp srvadmin-isvc srvadmin-storage; echo "rocommunity xxx 
ip.of.dev.mon" >> /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf ; service snmpd restart; service 
instsvcdrv restart ;service dataeng restart;service dsm_om_shrsvc restart

We have the relevant packages in our repo.

The Dell linux-poweredge list may be more appropriate for this, but if you 
don't come right, it would help to know what distro you are running.
