IDRAC 7 License Info

Idrac7 License Generator

Servers that we sell with a IDRAC Module or integrated IDRAC port are only offered in Express Version.

If you need the Enterprise License, you will need to acquire the license from dell.

Both idrac8 license generator Express and iDRAC Enterprise are separate physical cards that get installed. It's not either-or, it's either-. If you are using CIFS share you can use following command to take a backup of the license. Yah, I did make an assumption - so what.

iDRAC 7 Enterprise license installation and setup of DRAC

The first step depends if your model of 12th generation Dell server has an iDRAC port already. Some models such as the R620, R720, etc have an integrated iDRAC port for iDRAC Express. Other models like the R320 and R420 may have BMC only, and require a piece of hardware to add an iDRAC.
The second part, after making sure your model of server has an iDRAC port, is applying the iDRAC 7 Enterprise license through Dell onto the service tag number of your server.
The third part, utilizing the six steps below, will allow you to access all the functions of the iDRAC 7 Enteprise
1. Store the xml format license file (you should have received when purchasing the license) at a location accessible from the management station.
2. In the iDRAC7 Web interface, go to Overview > Server > Licenses.
3. Under License Options, from the Select drop-down menu, select Import.
4. Click Browse, select the xml license file, and click Apply.
A message indicating the license was successfully imported is displayed.
5. Click OK to close the message.
6. Log out and log in to iDRAC7 Web interface.
The new license level is displayed at the top of the Web interface page

Ever have an IDRAC6 or 7 starts to give you issues or not act correctly? Perhaps an iDRAC reset did not fix your problem? Well here is lowest level iDRAC/Lifecycle Controller reset you can do. This method will delete all configurations from the Lifecycle Controller if you want to start over from scratch or before the system is retired.

From a Windows PC or Server run the following command: (I believe you can replace winrm with wsman for Linux but don’t quote me on that)

If successful, you will get a ReturnValue of 0. Now you wait. It takes about 5 to 10 minutes to complete. The LCD on the front panel will go dark and the iDRAC will no longer be accessible. After about 5 minutes you will hear all of the fans spin up to max RPM and stay there for a bit. When they calm down, the LCD should show back up and the iDRAC will be back to a default state with an IP address of 192.168.0.120. Depending on the version of firmware you have on the server, this might wipe out your iDRAC License key so export it first or be prepared to request a new key thru your support portal or via phone. Also don’t be surprised if the server takes a bit longer to reboot the first time after the wipe. It needs to recalibrate it’s power and thermal parameters after a wipe.

Another troubleshoot tidbit, you can flash the Lifecycle Controller via the iDRAC GUI interface. /usb-image-tool-for-mac.html. Current 12th generation servers can flash any hardware via the iDRAC GUI (but that is a topic for another post) but ANY 11th or 12th generation server can update it’s Lifecycle Controller via the iDRAC. This is most helpful when the Lifecycle Controller needs a repair or has a firmware older than May of 2012. Simple download the latest LC Repar file (iDRAC7 – http://ftp.dell.com/FOLDER01466145M/1/LC2.1_Q2Block_Repair_Package_1.1.5.165_A00.usc or iDRAC6 – http://ftp.dell.com/FOLDER00502596M/1/BDF_1.5.5_BIN-12.usc as of 8/2/13) and utilize it in the iDRAC GUI as if it is an iDRAC firmware upgrade.

That’s it, you now have a fixed or updated Lifecycle Controller.
