Dell Server Instance Diagram
Select a Dell system, from the Dell Modular System or Dell Monolithic System diagram views, to view the diagram specific
to that particular system.
Figure 1. Dell Server Instance Diagram - Detailed Management Pack
System-specific diagrams illustrate and indicate the status of the following components:
● Network interfaces
○ Physical and teamed network interfaces (Server In-band Monitoring only)
○ Physical interfaces (Server Out-of-band Monitoring only)
● Memory
● Power supply (monolithic systems only)
● Sensors
● Processors
● Dell OpenManage software services (Server In-band Monitoring only)
● Storage controller
● BIOS object (inventory only)
● iDRAC (inventory only)
○ iDRAC NIC (Server Out-of-band Monitoring only)
The memory, processors, and power supply components are displayed in detail by the Detailed edition of the Server monitoring
feature.
Storage Controller Component Hierarchy
Expand the Storage component in any Dell system instance diagram view, to view the status and health of components such as
physical disks, connectors, virtual disks, controllers, sensors, enclosures, and so on.
Network Interfaces Component Hierarchy
The Network Interfaces group is created only when an Intel or Broadcom network interface card is present and enabled on the
Dell Windows Server. Network interfaces are grouped under Physical Interfaces and Teamed Interfaces. If you disable a
network interface, it will be removed from management in the next discovery cycle.
NOTE:
Through the Server Out-of-band monitoring feature, the physical network interfaces are displayed under the
Network Interface Card group, and the iDRAC 7 network interface is displayed under the iDRAC object.
A reference relationship is created between a Teamed network interface and its associated Physical network interfaces. You can
view the reference relationship only when you enable the Enable Correlation attribute of Dell Windows Server Physical and
Teamed Relationship Discovery. For more information, see Enabling Correlation.
