Support For PowerEdge FX Chassis Sleds
The PowerEdge FX2s chassis supports PowerEdge FC620 and FC420 sleds and the PowerEdge FX2
enclosure supports PowerEdge FM120x4, FC620, and FC420 sleds. Discovery and classification of
PowerEdge FC620, FC420, and FM120x4 sleds can be performed using OMSA (in band) or iDRAC (out-
of-band).
NOTE: For in-band (without OMSA) discovery and monitoring of the PowerEdge FM120x4 sled,
make sure that either the WMI or SSH protocol is enabled and setup.
The PowerEdge FM120x4 sled contains four server nodes. When the server nodes in the PowerEdge
FM120x4 sled are discovered, they are displayed in the device tree under:
All Devices → Modular Systems
→ PowerEdge FX → Chassis Group → Sled Group → Server Node. Each server node is displayed under
the sled it belongs to. The Sled Group name in the device tree can be edited if necessary.
NOTE: Devices installed in the PowerEdge FX chassis are sorted based on the device name and not
based on the slot number in the device tree.

OEM Device Support
Dell OEM devices (re-branded or de-branded Dell servers and Compellent S8000 iDRAC), when
discovered, are classified under OEM Devices in the device tree. Most of the functionality available to
Dell servers, such as tasks, reports, and filters are also applicable to Dell OEM servers. However, system
update may not be possible if it is not supported by the OEM device module. For more information on
the supported protocols and features, see information on Dell servers/devices in Supported Devices
Protocols and Features Matrix.
