Launching iDRAC using Single Sign-On
CMC provides limited management of individual chassis components, such as servers. For complete
management of these individual components, CMC provides a launch point for the server’s management
controller (iDRAC) Web-based interface.
A user may be able to launch iDRAC Web interface without having to login a second time, as this feature
utilizes single sign-on. Single sign-on policies are:
• A CMC user who has server administrative privilege, is automatically logged into iDRAC using single
sign-on. Once on the iDRAC site, this user is automatically granted Administrator privileges. This is
true even if the same user does not have an account on iDRAC, or if the account does not have the
Administrator’s privileges.
• A CMC user who does NOT have the server administrative privilege, but has the same account on
iDRAC is automatically logged into iDRAC using single sign-on. Once on the iDRAC site, this user is
granted the privileges that were created for the iDRAC account.
• A CMC user who does not have the server administrative privilege, or the same account on the iDRAC,
does NOT automatically logged into iDRAC using single sign-on. This user is directed to the iDRAC
login page when the Launch iDRAC GUI is clicked.
