Export the single device inventory
You can export inventory data of only one device at a time to only the .csv format.
1. In the left pane, select the device group. A list of devices in the group is displayed in the Devices list.
A Donut chart indicates the device status in the working pane. See Donut chart. A table lists the properties of devices
selected. See Device list.
2. In the devices list, select the check box corresponding to the device, and then click Export Inventory.
3. In the Save As dialog box, save to a known location.
NOTE: When exported to .csv format, some of the data displayed on the GUI is not enumerated with a descriptive
string.
Devices list
The list of devices displays the device properties such as IP address and Service Tag. You can select a maximum of 25 devices
per page and navigate the pages to select more devices and perform tasks. For more information about the tasks you can
perform on the All Devices page, see Managing devices on page 37.
NOTE:
By default, the Devices list displays all the devices considered while forming the Donut chart. To view a list of
devices that belong to a specific health status, click the corresponding color band in the Donut chart, or click the health
status symbol. Devices that belong only to the selected category are listed.
● Health State indicates the working state of the device. The health statuses—OK, critical, and warning—are identified by
respective color symbols. See Device health statuses on page 36.
● Power State indicates if the device is turned on or off.
● Connection State indicates whether or not the device is connected to OpenManage Enterprise.
● Name indicates device name.
● TYPE indicates the type of device—Server, Chassis, Dell Storage, and Networking switch.
● IP address indicates the IP address of the iDRAC installed on the device.
● ONBOARDING STATE column indicates whether or not the device is onboarded. See Onboarding devices on page 108.
To filter data in the table, click Advanced Filters or the Filter symbol. To export data to HTML, CSV, or PDF file format, click
the Export symbol in the upper-right corner.
NOTE:
In the Devices list, click the device name or IP address to view device configuration data, and then edit. See Viewing
and configuring devices on page 46.
NOTE: The working pane displays the Donut chart of the selected device group. By using the Donut chart, you can view
the list of devices that belongs to other health statuses in that group. To view devices of other health status, click the
corresponding color band on the Donut chart. The data in the table changes. For more information about using the Donut
chart, see Donut chart.
Performing more actions on chassis and servers
By using the More Actions drop-down menu, you can perform the following actions on the All Devices page. Select the
device(s) and click any one of the following:
● Turn LED On: Turn on the LED of the device to identify the device among a group of devices in a data center.
