Configuring the Dell Chassis Management Controller Management Pack for
discovering Server Modules and Free Slots
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Create Run As Profiles and Run As Accounts to select users with privileges
that are needed to discover CMC and DRAC/MC server modules and free slots.
1. Create a Simple Run As account that has privileges to connect to the CMC
and/or DRAC/MC chassis. You can also create a Simple Run As Account with
Active Directory user credentials when the CMC and/or DRAC/MC Chassis is
configured to work with AD. You can also use Basic or Digest Run As Account
types for configuring the user credentials.
2. Associate the CMC Chassis Run As accounts with the "Dell CMC Login Account"
Run As Profile included in the Dell Chassis Management Controller Management
Pack. Target the configuration with respect to the Dell CMC class. For
SCOM 2007 R2/SCE 2010, you can select More Secure option in Run As Account
configuration, so that you can selectively distribute the configuration to
specific management servers.
3. Associate the DRAC/MC Chassis Run As Accounts with the "Dell DRAC/MC Login
Account" Run As Profile included in the Dell Chassis Management Controller
Management Pack. Target the configuration with respect to the Dell DRAC/MC
class. For SCOM 2007 R2/SCE 2010, you can select More Secure option in
Run As Account configuration, so that you can selectively distribute the
configuration to specific management servers.
4. To enable server module and free slot discovery for CMC, enable the
Discovery Rule "Dell CMC Slot Discovery". It is disabled by default.
To enable server module and free slot discovery for DRAC/MC, enable the
discovery rule "Dell DRAC/MC Slot Discovery".
