How is data input to this memory?
iDRAC6 Express
Internal Flash
iDRAC OS: Loading flash memory requires a vendor-provided firmware file and loader
program which is executed by booting up the system from a floppy or OS-based
executable containing the firmware file and the loader. System loaded without a good
iDRAC firmware image yields a non-functional iDRAC. Managed Services Repository:
Various partitions are loaded via vendor provided firmware file and loader program just
like iDRAC OS.
System RAM
System OS
TPM ID EEPROM
(Plug in module
only)
Factory load only.
TPM Binding
EEPROM (on China
planar only)
BIOS only
iDRAC6 SDRAM
Embedded iDRAC OS for 108MB and 8MB for VGA frame buffer
iDRAC6 FRU
Factory and iDRAC embedded OS
iDRAC6 Boot Block
Flash
Loading flash memory requires a vendor-provided firmware file and loader program which
is executed by booting up the system from a floppy or OS-based executable or out-of-
band firmware updates across the management network. Bad contents yield the iDRAC
inoperable and are unrecoverable in the customer environment. Note the lifecycle log is
automatically updated by the iDRAC as various system components FW, HW and SW
versions are changed.
Trusted Platform
Module
Using TPM Enabled operating systems
Chipset
CMOS BIOS control only via input such as BIOS F2 menu user configuration settings (such as
boot order)
2.5” Backplane or 3.5" Backplane
Storage Controller
Processor
Loading flash memory requires a vendor-provided firmware file and loader program which
is executed by booting up the system from a floppy or OS-based executable (DRMK,
USC, OS DUPs utility support) containing the firmware file and the loader. Backplane
loaded with bad firmware will not provide backplane and HDD status.
Control Panel
Internal USB Either read-only license key or OS-controlled copies
Internal SD Module Factory load, OS run time usage and OS updates and configuration changes.
