Scripting Dell iDrac 7 and PowerEdge R720
Hi Dell Community,
We're new to Dell and we're looking at how to script/automate deployment of Linux OSs and ESXi on R720.
What scripting language should we be thinking of using for these?
Thank you

WSMAN/WinRM to the idrac (only if the idrac is on the network or using nic passthrough):

Recite is an interactive WSMAN scripting environment.
This link should help you get started with Recite.

The Best Practice Guide has specific workflows for OS Deployment using Recite APIs
