Basic Installation of the iDRAC6 37
Installing the Software on the Managed System
Installing software on the managed system is optional. Without the managed
system software, you cannot use the RACADM locally, and the iDRAC6
cannot capture the last crash screen.
To install the managed system software, install the software on the managed
system using the
Dell Systems Management Tools and Documentation
DVD.
For instructions about how to install this software, see your Software Quick
Installation Guide available
on the Dell Support website
at
support.dell.com\manuals.
Managed system software installs your choices from the appropriate version
of Dell OpenManage Server Administrator on the managed system.
NOTE: Do not install the iDRAC6 management station software and the iDRAC6
managed system software on the same system.
If Server Administrator is not installed on the managed system, you cannot
view the system’s last crash screen or use the Auto Recovery feature.
For more information about the last crash screen, see "Viewing the Last
System Crash Screen" on page 333.
Installing the Software on the Management
Station
Your system includes the Dell Systems Management Tools and Documentation
DVD. This DVD includes the following components:
• DVD root - Contains the Dell Systems Build and Update Utility,
which provides server setup and system installation information
• SYSMGMT - Contains the systems management software products
including Dell OpenManage Server Administrator
For information about Server Administrator, IT Assistant, and Unified Server
Configurator, see the Server Administrator User's Guide, the IT Assistant
User’s Guide, and the Lifecycle Controller User’s Guide available on the Dell
