The Dell Remote Access Controller (DRAC) console is management station software designed to provide remote management capabilities for the Dell systems. You can remotely connect to the DRAC hardware and access the DRAC features either by using a web browser or the RACADM Command Line Interface (CLI). RACADM CLI is the command line user interface to the DRAC.

Dell OpenManage 7.2 A01 allows you to install Server Administrator in a granular way on Linux OS flavors where you can choose not to install management interfaces like SNMP, Command Line Interface, Operating System Logging, and so on Server Administrator functionality is the same in A00 and A01. You can upgrade to A01 from previous versions (OM 5.x, 6.x and OM 7.x). Once you have installed Server Administrator, to add more Server Administrator specific components, run the install script again and select the required components. To uninstall any sub components of Server Administrator, you must uninstall the complete application. Note: You cannot upgrade OpenManage 7.2 A00 to A01
