User's Manual
170 Using the CMC Web Interface
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.
For more information on the iDRAC behavior, see the iDRAC User’s Guides
on the Dell Support website at support.dell.com.
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.
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
Set the QuickDeploy settings accordingly.
