Not sure if you managed to solve this yet, but we've run into the same problem, and it looks like it's caused by the /etc/init.d/dm_sa_ipmi script (called by the dataeng service... eventually) trying to load the ipmi_msghandler module and failing to detect it loaded. This is because the module in question is now in the kernel and doesn't show up with lsmod that the script uses to detect if the module loaded ok.

Later versions of omsa (e.g. 7.4) correctly detect that the module is in the kernel. However, the apt repo changed from http://linux.dell.com/repo/community/deb to http://linux.dell.com/repo/community/ubuntu. If you go there it will give you instructions to upgrade and it should fix your issue.
