• Some controllers do not allow creation of a RAID 0 array with one drive.
This feature is supported only on high-end controllers, and the application
of such a hardware profile can cause failures.
Enabling Auto-Discovery on a Newly-Purchased System
The auto-discovery feature of a host system is not enabled by default; instead,
enablement must be requested at the time of purchase.
If auto-discovery was not requested at the time of purchase, it can be enabled
as follows:
1
During the boot process, press
ctrl-E
. The iDRAC setup screen
displays.
2
Enable the NIC (blade servers only).
3
Enable auto-discovery.
4
Enable DHCP.
5
Disable admin accounts.
6
Enable
Get DNS server address from DHCP
.
7
Enable
Get DNS domain name from DHCP
.
8
In the
Provisioning Server
field, enter:
<Dell Management Plug-in appliance IP
address>:4433
If auto-discovery enablement is requested at the time of purchase, DHCP is
enabled on the iDRAC and admin accounts are disabled. It is not necessary to
configure a static IP address for the iDRAC; it will get one from a DHCP
server on the network. To make use of the auto-discovery feature, a DHCP
server or a DNS server (or both) must be configured to support the discovery
process. CSIOR has already been run by factory process.
For more information on how to set up a network to support auto-discovery,
see the Dell Auto-Discovery Network Setup Specification at
