Installation prerequisites

Dependencies

• Managed servers must have an Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) 6, 7, or 8. It is recommended to use the latest

version firmware.

• Power Distribution Unit (PDU) and Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) devices must comply with the Management Information Base

(MIB) the vendor provides through SNMP interface.

• Devices must provide exclusive access for Power Center because the policies set on the devices from other management software

affect the Power Center power control function.

• The Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) user, through which Power Center communicates with devices, must be a local user

account whose roles include Administrator. The device must be configured to allow the Administrator to use at least one of the cipher

suite levels 0–3, and enable the IPMI over LAN setting.

• The WSman user, through which Power Center communicates with the chassis, must be a local user with the Administrator role. The

chassis must be configured to enable the Web Server service.
