Dell Remote Access Controller (DRAC) The Dell Remote Access Controller 5 (DRAC 5) is a systems management hardware and software solution designed to provide remote management capabilities, crashed system recovery, and power control functions for Dell systems. By communicating with the system's baseboard management controller (BMC), DRAC 5 (when installed) can be configured to send e-mail alerts for warnings or errors related to voltages, temperatures, intrusion, and fan speed. DRAC 5 also logs event data and the most recent crash screen (for systems running Windows operating system only) to help you diagnose the cause of a system crash. DRAC 5 contains its own microprocessor and memory, and is powered by the system in which it is installed. DRAC 5 may be pre-installed on your system, or available separately in a kit. 24 Configuring Your System Remotely
