Open Manange which version is best for dell R2012 and server 2012?
This is a bit confusing. I've been using old version 7.4 on my R610s.
When looking in the R610 area I see they only have version 7.1 and make no mention of 7.4 or 9.3.
In the 9.3 section I see the R610 is listed as compatible.
So I uninstall 7.4 put 9.3 on and access the web interface. Hmm It list the bios as unknown, release data of 2000 when its actually 2018. So i don't really trust it.
What version should I use? for now I'm going back to 7.4 as it works better.

The latest version should be what you're looking for. I would suspect that the iDRAC and BIOS likely need updates, and then it should work. What firmware versions are running on the host at present?

All firmware has been up to date for the R610.
7.4 works perfectly while 9.3 fails to populate all the fields. Seems buggy.

You might look at restarting the services for OpenManage, but 9.3 does work on the 11G systems I've worked with. The services would start with "DSM." There should be 4 of them to stop, then restart.

@RAJ54 we had mixed results with 9.3 on non-14G server models. I would recommend 9.2 on 11G-13G servers running Server 2012 or 2016.
