Typically, DHCP is used to assign IP addresses to the DRAC configurations. Most
DHCP servers also let you make static assignments for specific servers. If you
want to assign a specific IP address directly in the configuration file, select the
static option. However, you should also reserve these IP ranges on your DHCP
server to ensure that you won t have conflicts.
You can change the following DRAC settings:
Management port IP settings
DHCP (automatic)
Static
You have to assign a static IP address manually with this option. Provide
the IP, Gateway, and Subnet addresses.
Execute DRAC command (performed after configuration if any)
You can choose to execute different DRAC commands, such as resetting the
DRAC, restoring the factory default settings, and clearing the DRAC logs.
This task lets you configure any disks on your server.
See
"About configuration files"
You can capture two files. The first file lists the hardware on your server and
contains information about that hardware. For example, the file lists each drive
that exists, what type of controllers exist, and the size of each drive. The second
file lists the configuration options that are currently set. For example, the file
lists that the server has one disk that is defined on controller 0, and that disk uses
drives 1-6.
The second file does not show all of the options that are available. This
functionality is different from the way the DRAC and BIOS advanced tasks work.
By comparing the two lists, you can see what disks you have and what disks are
in use. You can then configure any of those disks.
You can access this task from the Create New Job or Task page.
