During a Typical installation, individual management station services that do not meet the specific hardware and software requirement for
that service are not installed on the managed systems. For example, the Server Administrator Remote Access Controller service software
module is not installed during a Typical installation unless the managed system has a remote access controller installed on it. You can,
however, go to Custom Setup and select the DRAC Command Line Tools software module for installation.
NOTE: To install the drivers successfully, the installer runs in an elevated privilege mode.
NOTE: The Remote Enablement feature is available only through the Custom Setup option.
NOTE: Server Administrator installation also installs some of the required Visual C++ runtime components on
the system.
NOTE: You can change the alert message format from Traditional Message Format to Enhanced Message Format using
the Custom Setup option.
Custom Installation
The sections that follow describe how to install Server Administrator and other managed system software using the Custom Setup

Management station and managed system services can be installed in the same or in different directories. You

system on which you want to install the system management software.
2. Close all open applications and disable any virus-scanning software.

autorun menu is displayed.

The Server Administrator prerequisite status screen is displayed and runs the prerequisite checks for the managed system. Any
relevant informational, warning, or error messages are displayed. Resolve all error and warning situations, if any.

A selected feature has a hard drive icon depicted next to it. A feature that is not selected has a red X depicted next to it. By default, if
the prerequisite checker finds a software feature with no supporting hardware, the prerequisite checker automatically ignores the
feature.
