Configuring Part Replacement Properties For A System
The Part Replacement feature provides an automatic update of firmware, or
configuration, or both of a newly replaced component in a system, to match
that of the original part. The newly replaced components could include a
PowerEdge RAID controller, NIC or power supply, to match that of the
original part. This feature is disabled by default on Lifecycle Controller and
may be enabled if required through DLCI. It is a licensed feature and requires
the Dell vFlash SD card.
Use the System Viewer utility to configure the Part Replacement properties
for a system.
To configure the Part Replacement properties:
1
On the System Viewer utility, select Platform Restore .
For a 11G server, the utility checks for a valid license of the Dell vFlash SD
card on the Lifecycle Controller of the system and for a 12G server, the
utility checks for an Enterprise license. If a valid license is present, the
Platform Restore screen is displayed.
2 On the Platform Restore screen, select the Configure Part Replacement
option and click
Next . The Part Replacement attributes are displayed.
