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.
OEM servers are always classified under the OEM Devices group in the device tree. They are not
displayed under the Servers or RAC group. If both the server and RAC of the OEM device are discovered,
they are correlated and displayed as one device under the OEM Devices group. Other OEM devices
except servers and RAC are classified under the different server groups such as Microsoft Virtualization
Servers, VMware ESX servers, and so on, based on the classification criteria they satisfy.
