The QuickDeploy feature only executes when it is enabled, and a server is inserted in the chassis. If Set iDRAC Root Password
on Server Insertion and QuickDeploy Enabled are enabled, the user is prompted using the LCD interface to allow or not allow
the password change. If there are network configuration settings that differ from the current iDRAC settings, the user is
prompted to either accept or reject the changes.
NOTE: If there is a LAN or IPMI over LAN difference, the user is prompted to accept the QuickDeploy IP address
setting. If the difference is the DHCP setting, the user is prompted to accept the DHCP QuickDeploy setting.
To copy the QuickDeploy settings into the iDRAC Network Settings section, click Auto-Populate Using QuickDeploy
Settings. The QuickDeploy network configurations settings are copied into the corresponding fields in the iDRAC Network
Configuration Settings
table.
NOTE: Changes made to QuickDeploy fields are immediate, but changes made to one or more iDRAC server
network configuration settings may require a couple of minutes to propagate from CMC to iDRAC. Clicking Refresh
early may display only partially correct data for one or more iDRAC servers.
