Recovering iDRAC Firmware Using CMC
iDRAC firmware is typically updated using iDRAC interfaces such as the iDRAC web interface, the SM-CLP command line
interface, or operating system specific update packages downloaded from support.dell.com. For more information, see the
iDRAC User’s Guide.
Early generations of servers can have corrupted firmware recovered using the new update iDRAC firmware process. When CMC
detects corrupted iDRAC firmware, it lists the server on the Firmware Update page. Complete the tasks mentioned in the
Updating Server iDRAC Firmware.
