Remote iDRAC Hard Reset
By using iDRAC, you can monitor the supported servers for critical system hardware, rmware, or software issues. Sometimes, iDRAC may
become unresponsive due to various reasons. During such scenarios, you must turn o the server and reset iDRAC. To reset the iDRAC
CPU, you must either power o and power on the server or perform an AC power cycle.
By using the remote iDRAC hard reset feature, whenever iDRAC becomes unresponsive, you can perform a remote iDRAC reset operation
without an AC power cycle.. To reset the iDRAC remotely, make sure that you have administrative privileges on the host OS. By default, the
remote iDRAC hard reset feature is enabled. You can perform a remote iDRAC hard reset using iDRAC Web interface, RACADM, and WS-
MAN.
NOTE
: This feature is not supported on Dell PowerEdge R930 server and is supported only on Dell’s 13th generation of
PowerEdge servers and later.
