Yes, I could do that for you. But see below first...

Not sure that I understand what you mean. If used, the --only option
specifies exactly one component to check. For example, '--only cpu'
would make the plugin only check the CPUs. All other components are
ignored. No warnings about e.g. fan probes should then appear.

Yes. You can use the '--check' option to specify that you don't want to
check these things. Example:

  check_openmanage --check fans=0,temp=0,voltage=0

Using the '--check' option as above will prevent check_openmanage to
ever running the commands that are failing.

These are errors from running omreport. They indicate that something is
wrong, either with the hardware or with Openmanage. I would try
reinstalling Openmanage first, which may help. The 2650 is an old model,
but if you still have a valid warranty you should contact Dell support
about this problem. These commands should not fail like this. If all
else fails, use the '--check' option as described above.
