Viewing or Editing Deployment Credentials
In Dell Management Center, you can edit the deployment credentials. Deployment credentials are used to securely
communicate with a bare-metal system using the iDRAC from initial discovery, until the end of the deployment process.
Once deployment completes, the credentials are changed to those in the connection profile matched to the bare-metal
system from the deployment wizard. If the deployment credentials are changed, all newly discovered systems from that
point on will be provisioned with the new credentials - the credentials on servers discovered prior to the change of
credentials are not affected by this change. The user name should be 16 characters or less (only ASCII printable
characters). The password should be 20 characters or less (only ASCII printable characters).
To view or edit deployment credentials:
1. In Dell Management Center → Settings → Deployment Credentials, click Edit.
2. In the Credentials for Bare Metal Server Deployment, under Credentials, do the following:
• In the User Name text box, enter the user name.
The user name should be 16 characters or less (only ASCII printable characters).
• In the Password text box, enter the password.
The password should be 20 characters or less (only ASCII printable characters).
• In the Verify Password text box, enter the password again.
The passwords must match.
