    Missing server assistant disks

    Hi

    We need to reinstall sbs 2003 R2 on dell 2900 server but we seem to have
    misplaced dell server assistant boot and server management cds. What is the
    way to proceed form here? Should we get a replacement set from dell which
    could take a few days or are they downloadable from somewhere? I have looked
    at dell site but not sure what I need to be looking for. I have found this;

    Dell DVD ISO - Dell Systems Management Tools and Documentation
    http://tinyurl.com/ydxlr93

    Is this good?

    Many Thanks



    Regards

    That should work as long as you have a DVD drive in your server. It
    contains the Dell Server Assistant program for installing the OS.

    If you need the CD that came with your PE 2900:

    Dell CD ISO - Installation and Server Management
    Release date: 4/10/2007
    Version: 5.2.0, A00
    http://support.dell.com/support/down...&fileid=204270

    The CD should contain:

    The Dell PowerEdge™ Installation and Server Management CD includes an
    operating system installation utility and all required software applications
    to install and manage PowerEdge systems. These applications include: * Dell
    OpenManage Server Assistant * Dell OpenManage Server Administrator * SNMP
    Agents
