About configuration files

Deployment Solution for Dell saves configuration files for BIOS, DRAC, and RAID
every time inventory runs. For each type of Dell server, inventory automatically
runs every time that server boots to the Dell WinPE environment. A new DRAC
configuration, BIOS configuration, and RAID configuration file is then stored on
the associated Notification Server. Those configuration files are then stored in
the CMDB.
For example, if you have a new server, you might PXE boot it to WinPE if the server
isn t known to Deployment Solution. The server boots up and gathers inventory,
such as your address name, system name, and other identifying information.
Then, the Dell inventory information is gathered. This information is stored as
the configuration files for that server.
