17.3 Embedded Server Management

The Dell™ PowerEdge™ M910 implements circuitry for the next generation of Embedded Server

Management. It is Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) v2.0 compliant. The optional

iDRAC (Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller) is responsible for acting as an interface between

the host system and its management software and the periphery devices.

The optional upgrade to iDRAC6 provides features for managing the server remotely or in data center

lights-out environments.

Advanced iDRAC features require the installation of the optional iDRAC6 Enterprise card.

17.4 Lifecycle Controller and Unified Server Configurator

Embedded management is comprised of several interdependent pieces:

•

Lifecycle Controller

•

Unified Server Configurator

•

iDRAC6

•

vFlash media

Lifecycle controller powers the embedded management features. It is integrated and tamperproof

storage for system-management tools and enablement utilities (firmware, drivers, etc.). It is flash

partitioned to support multiple, future-use cases.

Dell Unified Server Configurator (USC) is a local 1:1 graphical user interface embedded on Lifecycle

Controller that aids in local server provisioning in a pre-OS environment. For servers with iDRAC

Express, the Lifecycle Controller offers OS install, platform updates, platform configuration, and

diagnostics capabilities. For servers without iDRAC Express, this utility has limited functionality and

offers OS install and diagnostics capabilities only.

To access the Unified Server Configurator, press the <F10> key within 10 seconds of the Dell logo's

appearance during the system boot process. Current functionality enabled by the Unified Server

Configurator includes:
