executables I should install while completing the
Linux installation?

I created a custom folder in Windows Event
Viewer, but the LC logs are not replicated in my
custom folder. What do I have to do now to
replicate the LC logs?
Ensure to close the Windows Event Viewer after creating the custom folder. Open the Windows Event Viewer again to view the
replicated LC logs.
I chose custom install option from the Graphical
User Interface during iDRAC Service Module
installation and disabled a feature, but I am not
able to enable the feature using any of the other
interfaces. How do I enable the feature again?
On systems running Microsoft Windows operating system, a feature that is enabled using the installer and disabled using any interface
other than the installer, can only be enabled using the same interface or the installer in Graphical User Interface mode.
For example, you may not be able to enable a feature using the RACADM CLI commands, that was disabled from the Graphical User
Interface during iDRAC Service Module installation.
I am not able to access the iDRAC page through
the host OS as an Active Directory user over
LDAP. I am trying to access the iDRAC page
through the host OS, but I get an error saying that
the site cannot be reached. How do I troubleshoot
the issue?
When you are trying to access the iDRAC page through the host OS, you may get an error saying that the site cannot be reached. Ensure
that the iDRAC network is configured for authentication as an LDAP user. You can also login as a local user or a guest.
