Provisioning a Dell server
To provision a Dell server
1
From the Symantec Management Console, on the Settings menu, click All
Settings.
2
In the left pane, expand the Deployment and Migration folder.
3
Click Dell Server Provisioning.
4
In the right pane, select any of the following options:
Provision only servers with trusted certificates
The certificate on the DRAC should match the Dell certificate on Symantec
Management Platform . If the certificates don t match, your Dell server
is not provisioned.
If you select this option, you must manually add your certificate trust list
(CTL) in IIS.
See
"Adding a certificate trust list to IIS"
Provision only servers that have not been provisioned previously
If the server has been provisioned once, it is not provisioned again.
Provision only servers authorized by predefined service tags
You can select the specific servers that you want provisioned. You can
select different credentials for each server and the different tasks that
run on each server. For example, service tag X gets credentials Y and runs
the Windows OS installation task. If the service tag of a new server doesn t
match a service tag on the list, it is ignored and not provisioned.

You can select existing credentials from the drop-down list or click the ellipses
icon to view additional information about those credentials. You can also
click the pencil icon to edit existing credentials or click the plus icon to add
credentials.
These are the same credentials that you specified in the First Time Setup
page.
See
"Creating provisioning credentials"

the list.
