Installing iDRAC Service Module on supported
Linux operating systems
The complete iDRAC Service Module is packaged in a single Red Hat Package Manager (rpm). The package, which is accompanied by a
shell script can install, uninstall, or enable/disable the features available.
Before installing iDRAC Service Module, user has to install the OSC package collector using rpm -ivh dcism-osc*.rpm.
As the Installer on Linux is a single rpm install, there is no granular install support. You can enable/disable the features through the scripted
installs only.
NOTE: The Installer is available for all iDRAC Service Module supported 64–bit versions of Linux operating systems.
Preinstallation requirement for Linux operating systems
To install the iDRAC Service Module on systems running the supported Linux operating system, run setup.sh.

• OS-to-iDRAC Passthru is enabled automatically after installing iDRAC Service Module.
• The IPv4 Network stack is enabled in the Host operating system.
• The USB subsystem is enabled.
• udev is enabled; required to start iDRAC Service Module automatically.
