Installing the iDRAC6 Express/Enterprise
Hardware
NOTE: The iDRAC6 connection emulates a USB keyboard connection. As a result,
when you restart the system, the system will not notify you if your keyboard is
not attached.
The iDRAC6 Express/Enterprise may be preinstalled on your system, or
available separately. To get started with the iDRAC6 that is installed on your
system, see "Software Installation and Configuration Overview" on page 36.
If an iDRAC6 Express/Enterprise is not installed on your system, see your
platform Hardware Owner’s Manual for hardware installation instructions.
