Basic Installation of the iDRAC6 41
Installing the Software on the Managed System
Installing software on the managed system is optional. Without the managed
system software, you cannot use the RACADM locally, and the iDRAC6
cannot capture the last crash screen.
To install the managed system software, install the software on the managed
system using the
Dell Systems Management Tools and Documentation DVD.
For instructions about how to install this software, see your Quick
Installation Guide available
on the Dell Support website at
support.dell.com\manuals.
Managed system software installs your choices from the appropriate version
of Dell™ OpenManage™ Server Administrator on the managed system.
NOTE: Do not install the iDRAC6 management station software and the iDRAC6
managed system software on the same system.
If Server Administrator is not installed on the managed system, you cannot
view the system’s last crash screen or use the Auto Recovery feature.
For more information about the last crash screen, see "Viewing the Last
System Crash Screen."
