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 not accept the changes.
NOTE: When 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 too soon may display only partially correct data for one
or more iDRAC servers.
