Installing DLCI for Configuration Manager
The Dell Lifecycle Controller Integration (DLCI) for Configuration Manager installer contains two components — Dell
Lifecycle Controller Utility (DLCU) and Dell Provisioning Service (DPS).
DLCU is a plug-in for Configuration Manager; select this option when you have Configuration Manager installed on a site
server.
DPS is a component for provisioning Dell servers into Configuration Manager. For DPS, Configuration Manager
installation is not required.
The server on which DPS is installed is known as Dell Provisioning Server.
You can install both the components together or install them individually on separate systems.
