PowerEdge R210 II Technical Guide
1.4 Easy to Manage
The Dell PowerEdge R210 II lets you focus on running your business rather than running your servers.
Dell OpenManage systems management software helps to automate common management tasks,
thereby enhancing efficiency, improving productivity, and reducing the potential for error (which can
cause downtime).
The optional Dell Lifecycle Controller can simplify administrator tasks by performing a complete set
of functions such as system deployment, system updates, hardware configuration and diagnostics
from a single intuitive interface called Unified Server Configurator in a pre-OS environment. This
eliminates the need to use and maintain multiple pieces of disparate CD/DVD media. With Dell
Lifecycle Controller server deployment automation, the R210 II is up and running fast.
