Using the CMC Web Interface 155
Managing iDRAC
The CMC provides the Deploy iDRAC page to allow the user to configure
installed and newly inserted server's iDRAC network configuration settings. A
user can configure one or more installed iDRAC devices from this page. The
user can also configure the default iDRAC network configuration settings and
root password for severs that will be installed later; these default settings are
the iDRAC QuickDeploy settings.
iDRAC QuickDeploy
The iDRAC QuickDeploy section of the Deploy iDRAC page contains
network configuration settings that are applied to newly inserted servers. You
may use these settings to automatically populate the iDRAC Network
Settings table that is below the QuickDeploy section. Once QuickDeploy is
enabled, the QuickDeploy settings are applied to servers when that server is
installed. See step 8 in "Using the LCD Configuration Wizard" on page 37 for
more information on the iDRAC QuickDeploy settings.
Follow these steps to enable and set the iDRAC QuickDeploy settings:
1
Log in to the CMC Web interface.
2 Select Servers in the system tree.
3 Click the Setup tab. The Deploy iDRAC page appears.
4 Select the check box for QuickDeploy Enabled to enable the
QuickDeploy settings.
5 Set the remaining QuickDeploy settings accordingly.
