Reporting and fixing compliance for bare-metal
servers
A bare-metal server is noncompliant when:
• It is not a supported server.
• It does not have a supported iDRAC license (iDRAC Express is the minimum requirement).
• It does not have supported versions of iDRAC, BIOS, or LC.
• LOM or rNDC is not present.
• System Lockdown Mode is turned on.
To view and fix the list of noncompliant bare-metal servers:
1. In OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter, select the Manage > Deployment tab.
a) In the Bare Metal Servers page, view the list of noncompliant servers.
A table is displayed that lists the noncompliant servers along with the Service Tag, model, iDRAC IP, server status, System
Lockdown Mode, compliance status, and the iDRAC license status.
b) To view further details of a server, select a noncompliant server.
c) To export the noncomplaint information of a server to a .CSV file, in the right-hand corner of the table, click the
icon.
d) To filter the content of the data grid, click the Filter field.
e) To swap the columns within the table, drag and drop columns within the data grid.
2. To fix noncomplaint servers, click Fix non-compliant servers.
NOTE: The Fix non-compliant servers link is only enabled for 11th generation noncompliant servers.
3. In the Fix bare metal Compliance wizard, click Next in the Welcome page.
4. In the Fix Compliance page, select the check boxes for the servers you want to fix.
The noncomplaint servers are listed and the firmware component for which it is noncompliant is displayed. The listed noncompliant
servers require updating at least one of the following firmware components:
• iDRAC IP
NOTE:
From OMIVV, you cannot fix bare-metal servers where the iDRAC licenses are noncompliant. Ensure that
you upload supported iDRAC license to those servers outside OMIVV, and then click Refresh Baremetal Servers.
SeeRefreshing bare-metal servers.
• BIOS
• LC
• System Lockdown Mode
NOTE:
To view latest details of the noncomplaint bare-metal servers from the corresponding iDRAC, clickRefresh
Bare Metal details. If System Lockdown Mode is turned on, the server is noncomplaint, and conversely.
5. To view compliance issue details, click Compliance Issues.
NOTE:
If a bare-metal server is noncomplaint due to System Lockdown Mode being turned on, ensure that you
manually configure the System Lockdown Mode of the server from the iDRAC console.
6. Click Next.
7. In the Summary window, review the actions that take place on the firmware components of noncompliant bare-metal servers.
8. Click Finish.
Fixing iDRAC license compliance for bare-metal servers
The bare-metal servers listed in the Bare Metal Servers page are noncompliant because they do not have a compatible iDRAC license. A
table displays the status of the iDRAC license. You can click a noncomplaint bare-metal server to view more details such as, how many
days are remaining for the iDRAC license, and then you can update it, as required. If the Refresh Baremetal Servers link is enabled in the
Bare Metal Servers page, there are bare-metal servers that are noncompliant due to the iDRAC license.
