216 Using the CMC Web Interface
Normally, the USC firmware is installed through an appropriate installation
package that has to be executed on the server OS. A special repair or
installation package with file extension .usc is available on the native iDRAC
Web-Browser interface. This package enables you to install the USC firmware
through the usual firmware update facility. For more information, see the Dell
Lifecycle Controller USC/USC-LCE User's Guide.
The Lifecycle Controller service can be enabled during the server boot
process. For iDRAC6 servers, on the boot console, when prompted with the
message Press <CTRL-E> for Remote Access Setup within 5
sec., press <CTRL-E>. Then, on the setup screen, enable System Services.
To cancel all scheduled jobs that are pending and remove them from the
queue, select Cancel System Services.
The Server Component Update page enables you to update various firmware
components on your system. To use the features and functions on this page,
you must have:
• For CMC: Server Administrator privilege.
•For iDRAC:
Configure iDRAC privilege and Log in to iDRAC privilege.
In case of insufficient privileges, you can only view the firmware inventory of
components and devices on the server. You cannot select any components or
devices for any kind of Lifecycle Controller operation on the server.
