Remote iDRAC Hard Reset
By using iDRAC, you can monitor the supported servers for critical system hardware, firmware, or software issues. Sometimes, iDRAC
may become unresponsive due to various reasons. During such scenarios, you must turn off the server and reset iDRAC. To reset the
iDRAC CPU, you must either power off 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
WSMan.
