This feature enables PERC controller to auto import foreign config, when there is an existing configuration. • ControllerBootMode: PERC9 controllers supports setting controller boot mode. This is ideal in a headless server environment.

In each boot mode, the PERC either ignores or takes default action and continues on error. • 4K sector drives: PERC 9 is introducing support for hard-disk drives with 4k sector size. The purpose of this feature is to allow customers to use new 4k sector HDDs, which allow faster data transfer using fewer commands. • RAID real-time configuration support: Configuration jobs are run in real-time, host reboot is not required. • Changes the controller mode from RAID to HBA or HBA to RAID.

Profile Name
Description
License Management
The License Management Profile is an autonomous profile for modeling the Dell Product License Manager
(License Manager). It extends the management capabilities of referencing profiles by adding the capability to
represent the devices and Licenses managed by the Dell Product Licensing Manager.
Memory
The DCIM Memory Profile describes the properties and interfaces for running system management tasks
related to the management of memories (DIMMs) within a system.
OS Deployment
OS deployment profile describes how to remotely download, setup, and monitor an operating system on a
bare metal machine.
PCI
The DCIM PCI Device Profile describes the properties and interfaces for running system management tasks
related to the management of PCI devices within a system.
Persistent Storage
The Persistent Storage Profile extends the management capabilities of referencing profiles by adding the
capability to represent and manage the partitions on the Virtual flash media on Dell platforms.
Physical Computer
System View
This profile includes a specification of the physical computer system view, extrinsic methods for management
operations, and its associated relationships.
Power State
Management
The Power State Management Profile describes the classes, associations, properties, and methods used to
manage the power of a system.
Power Supply
The DCIM Power Supply Profile describes the properties and interfaces for running system management
tasks related to the management of power supplies within a system.
Profile Registration
The DCIM Profile Registration Profile defines the classes used to describe the DCIM and DMTF profile
registration and the version information of the profiles advertised as implemented for a managed system and
components of the system.
RAID
The RAID Profile extends the management capabilities of referencing profiles by adding the capability to
represent the configuration of RAID storage.
PERC9 support features provide the following features:
RAID10–UnevenSpan support: This is a new feature that supports uneven spans (spans with different
span length) for RAID 10 virtual disk (VD). This is required to support creation of RAID 10 VD with all
possible number of physical disk drives. With this feature the RAID firmware automatically handles the
creation of spans and therefore span information is hidden from end end users.
PERC 12 GBPS speed: PERC 9 controllers are of 12 gbps speed and hence can support 12 gbps physical
disk drives.
Auto Import of foreign config: PERC9 controllers supports enhanced auto import of foreign config
without requiring user interactions. This is ideal in a headless server environment. This feature enables
PERC controller to auto import foreign config, when there is an existing configuration.
ControllerBootMode: PERC9 controllers supports setting controller boot mode. This is ideal in a headless
server environment. This feature enables PERC controller to either wait for user interaction on error, or to
continue boot on error, or headless mode continue boot on error or boot to headless safe mode. In each
boot mode, the PERC either ignores or takes default action and continues on error.
4K sector drives: PERC 9 is introducing support for hard-disk drives with 4k sector size. The purpose of
this feature is to allow customers to use new 4k sector HDDs, which allow faster data transfer using
fewer commands.
RAID real-time configuration support: Configuration jobs are run in real-time, host reboot is not required.
Changes the controller mode from RAID to HBA or HBA to RAID.
Record Log
The DCIM Record Log Profile provides the management capabilities to represent logs of a managed system
element.
Role Based Authorization
The DCIM Role Based Authorization Profile describes the properties and interfaces for running system
management tasks related to the authorization.
Sensors
The DCIM Sensors Profile describes the properties and interfaces for running system management tasks
related to the management of sensors within a system.
Simple ID Management
The DCIM Simple Identity Management Profile describes the properties and interfaces for running system
management tasks related to the management of accounts and identities.
Simple Raid
The profile extends the management capabilities to represent the configuration of RAID storage. The RAID
storage is modeled as collections of attributes for the storage adaptors, physical disks, logical disks, end
enclosures, and parent-child relationships between the collections.
