License Manager
Dell License Manager is a one-to-many license deployment and reporting tool for integrated Dell
Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) and Dell chassis management controller (CMC) licenses. Dell License
Manager can also inventory licensable systems to report the licensing status and currently enabled
management controller feature level. Use Dell iDRAC licenses to enable server management capabilities
such as the virtual media and remote console support currently available in the Enterprise iDRAC feature
set. Use Dell CMC licenses to enable chassis management capabilities such as console integration,
remote access, mutli-chassis management, server cloning, and so on. To use the license manager,
inventory licensable servers and deploy licenses obtained from the online licensing portal
(http://www.dell.com/support/retail/lkm).
