• Server Administrator Server Administrator provides comprehensive one-to-one in-band server managements solutions to manage a server locally and remotely using a web browser-based Graphical User Interface (GUI) and Command Line Interface (CLI). Server Administrator installs server-specific Remote Access Card (RAC) and network interface management components.

When you install RAC Tools from autorun, RAC Tools launches the installer corresponding to the operating system architecture. • Systems Build and Update Utility (SBUU) Dell recommends using the Embedded Management, Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller 8 (iDRAC8) with Lifecycle Controller instead of Dell Systems Build and Update Utility (SBUU). SBUU is replaced with Lifecycle Controller on Dell 13G servers.

You can use DTK to build script-based and RPM-based installation for deploying large number of systems on a preoperating system environment in a reliable way, without changing their current deployment processes.
