Table 2. Proles
Prole Name Description
Active Directory The Active Directory Client Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the
capability to represent the conguration of Active Directory client service and the groups managed by the
service.
Base Metrics The DMTF Common Interface Model (DCIM) Base Metrics Prole extends the DMTF Base Metrics Prole to
add Dell-specic implementation requirements for power-related metrics. The prole standardizes the units
and description for the metrics, and provides static methodology for the clients to query the metrics without
substantial traversal of the model.
Base Server and Physical
Asset
The Base Server Prole is the autonomous prole that denes the classes used to describe basic server
hardware and its related software.
BIOS and Boot
Management
The BIOS and Boot Management Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by
adding the capability to represent the conguration of the system BIOS setup and to manage the boot of the
system.
CPU The DCIM CPU Prole describes the properties and interfaces for running system management tasks related
to the management of processors within a system.
Ethernet Port The Ethernet Port Prole extends the management capability of referencing proles by adding the ability to
represent an Ethernet port, its associated controller, and Ethernet interfaces.
Event Filter The Dell Event Filter Prole provides the management capabilities to view the event lters and set actions and
notications for the events.
Fan The DCIM Fan Prole describes the properties and interfaces for running system management tasks related to
the management of fans within a system.
Fibre Channel The Fibre Channel Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the capability
to represent the conguration of Fibre Channel host bus adapters (FC HBA).
iDRAC Card
The DCIM iDRAC Card Prole describes the properties and interfaces for performing system management
tasks related to the management of basic properties of iDRAC card.
DCIM_iDRACCardEnumeration class has attributes PTMode and AdminState to support conguration of
iDRAC Network Bridge in LOM-P2P or USB-P2P modes.
VNC server conguration is possible by setting attributes of Port, Timeout, Password, Enable and
LowerEncryptionBitLength.
DCIM_iDRACCardInteger has new attribute SMTPPort for SMTP conguration and AlertPort and
DiscoveryPort for SNMP conguration.
DCIM_iDRACCardEnumeration class has attributes PTMode and AdminState to support conguration of
iDRAC Network Bridge in LOM-P2P or USB-P2P modes.
Basic OMSA Equivalency: Some features (such as WatchdogResetTime andLCLReplication) currently provided
by OMSA is available on iDRAC service module (iSM).
Job Control The Job Control Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the capability to
create, schedule, track, and manage jobs that represent platform management operations.
LC Management
The Lifecycle Controller (LC) Management Prole describes the management of the Dell Lifecycle Controller
and its conguration attributes.
The ExportCerticate() method is used to export unique generated SSL Certicates from the Lifecycle
Controller to a le in remote share location.
The DCIM_LCService. ExportHealthReport() method is used to collect the EHR. That is, hardware, operating
system and application data, compress the zip le, and then to save in to the respective remote share path
(cifs/nfs).
