52 Using the Configuration Utility
NOTE: If you want to update a system after you deploy the operating system, and
the system services are still unavailable, then you can reset the Integrated Dell
Remote Access Controller using the iDRAC6 web-based interface. For more
information, see the
Dell Lifecycle Controller Remote Services User’s Guide
available at support.dell.com/manuals.
After the deployment is successful, the system with Integrated Dell Remote
Access Controller moves to the Managed Dell Lifecycle Controller (OS
Deployed) collection under Computer Management Collections All
Dell Lifecycle Controller Servers.
NOTE: If you change the hostname of the target systems after you deploy the
operating system, the system continues to appear under the Managed Dell Lifecycle
Controller (OS Deployed) collection on the ConfigMgr console. You
do not need to re-discover the system when you change the hostname.
