indicate whether the current configuration data needs to be deleted prior
to the next cycle of Auto-Discovery. Only

Auto-Discovery provisioning process is complete and the iDRAC receives
the new credentials.

Using Custom Certificates
You can now transfer custom-defined certificates to the iDRAC6, and create a
unique certificate based on the service tag of your system to ensure enhanced
security. You can also have the factory preset the system with the certificate of
your choice using the Custom Factory Install (CFI) process available from
Dell.
Creating Custom Client Certificates through WS-MAN
The DownloadClientCerts() method on the DCIM_LCService class can
be called to cause a custom signed Auto-Discovery client encryption
certificate to be generated. The method takes as input a Certificate Authority
generated key certificate and related hash and password parameters. The key
certificate provided is used to sign a certificate containing the system service
tag as the Certificate Name(CN). The method returns a job ID that can be
used to check the success of the download, generation, and installation of the
Auto-Discovery client private certificate. For examples of command line
invocations using WinRM and WSMANCLI see the Lifecycle Controller 1.3
Web Services Interface Guide.
