The Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) Authentication process verifies the iDRAC
credentials you have provided when you install Dell Lifecycle Controller Integration for Configuration
Manager against each of the iDRAC IP addresses you have specified. The grid displays the IP Address,
name of the server, and the status of the authentication.
You can provide user credentials authenticated on active directory.
If the iDRAC user you have specified is not present on the Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller
of any of the servers you want to import, then the status is displayed as Authentication failed, and
you cannot import that server.
Dell Lifecycle Controller Integration for Configuration Manager must have the required license
available in Dell Connections License Manager, else the servers are grouped under Unmanaged Dell
Lifecycle Controller (OS Deployed) if the operating systems are deployed on the target servers, and
grouped under Unmanaged Dell Lifecycle Controller (OS Unkown) if the operating systems are not
deployed.
If a target server is removed and its IP is assigned to some other server, then the license that was
assigned to the target server is inappropriately used.
