Where I had great difficulties trying to get OMSA to install let alone work in Oracle's Enterprise Linux 4 (u5 and above), I am happy to report that I got it working out-of-the-box after an install of my custom 5u3 image, following the instructions on the OMSA Repository Wiki. A simple http proxy setting, the wget boot strap line to configure yum and the dependencies and I was in business! Excellent work, Dell!
