The DRAC Monitoring feature supports discovery and monitoring for the various generations of iDRAC—iDRAC6, iDRAC7, and
iDRAC8 systems by using SNMP.
NOTE: The DRAC Monitoring feature is deprecated for iDRAC9 and above systems. Recommendation is to use the Dell

Feature management tasks for DRAC Monitoring feature
The following table lists the DRAC monitoring tasks available in the Dell EMC Feature Management Dashboard. Some tasks that
are listed in the Feature Management tasks table appear only after you have imported the DRAC monitoring feature.
NOTE:
In the event log, ignore the errors pertaining to reimporting of existing management packs under the error logs.
These errors occur when Dell EMC Feature Management Dashboard reimports all the dependent management packs that
are already imported while importing a monitoring feature.
NOTE: Wait for a task to complete (view the state update change in the dashboard) before starting another task using the
Dell EMC Feature Management Dashboard.
