You can enable or disable the power button on your server that controls
whether it is on or off. By disabling the power button, no one can physically
turn off the server.
This task lets you change all of the DRAC configuration settings.

"About configuration files"
This task supports tokenization. You can use tokens in the configuration file.
Tokens are a text substitution for the information that is stored in the CMDB. For
example, %COMPNAME%. Deployment Solution for Dell queries the CMDB for
the information that matches any tokens in your configuration file. Those tokens
are then replaced dynamically with the correct information.
You can access this task from the Create New Job or Task page.

This task contains the following options:
Only execute on systems whose DRAC firmware version matches
Select this option to run on the servers that have a matching DRAC firmware
version. For example, version 1.30.
Firmware is the Dell software that is installed on the DRAC that lets you
communicate with the server. Think of it as the operating system for your
DRAC.
Only execute on systems whose DRAC type matches
Select this option to run on the servers that have a matching DRAC type. For
example, an iDRAC might be type 10.
Import existing DRAC configuration
Select this option to import the latest, existing DRAC configuration file from
the CMDB. This file is the configuration file that was captured the last time
that the server booted into Dell WinPE. You can then view and change any
option in the list.
This task lets you change a subset of the DRAC configuration settings.
