2 Remote Services Features Using Lifecycle Controller-Remote Services, you can perform the following operations: • Deploy and Configure • Monitor • Maintain • Create and schedule jobs Topics: • Deployment and configuration • Monitor • Maintain • Job management Deployment and configuration Using various Lifecycle Controller-Remote Services' capabilities, you can perform different configurations on a system throughout its lifecycle. You can perform operations such as BIOS, iDRAC, RAID, FC-HBA, and NIC configurations, and operating system deployment on the system. Server configuration profiles The server configuration profiles file contains the component configuration information that is used to apply the configuration for BIOS, iDRAC, RAID, NIC, FC-HBA, System, and Lifecycle Controller by importing the file to a target system. The export and import of Server Configuration Profiles are supported by the WS-MAN and iDRAC RESTful API with Redfish APIs. For more information and white papers, see Server Cloning with Server Configuration Profiles and Creating and Managing Server Configuration Profiles documents available at www.delltechcenter.com. BIOS configuration The BIOS and boot configuration feature gets and sets any of the configurable BIOS attributes that are exposed in BIOS UEFI HII. You can perform the following operations: • Retrieve current configuration of BIOS inventory • Retrieve current boot configuration settings • Manage the boot order configuration • Change the BIOS boot mode or UEFI boot mode • Manage BIOS passwords • Change the boot order • Enable or disable boot sources • One-time boot support to any device listed in the boot order iDRAC configuration The iDRAC configuration feature is used to manage the properties and interfaces for running system management tasks related to the management of basic properties of iDRAC. The remote access controller properties and attributes are divided into views to provide a simple methodology for the clients to query the iDRAC views and set the iDRAC attributes. You can perform the following operations: • Retrieve current iDRAC configuration and inventory Remote Services Features 11
