Discovering servers using auto discovery

To automatically discover servers, connect servers to the network and power on the servers. OMIMSSC auto discovers the unassigned servers by using the remote enablement feature of iDRAC. OMIMSSC works as a provisioning server and uses iDRAC reference to auto discover servers.

Steps

  1. In OMIMSSC, create a device type credential profile by providing the iDRAC credentials and make it as default for servers. For information about creating a credential profile, see Creating a credential profile.
  2. Disable the existing Administrator account in iDRAC settings in the managed device.

    NOTE: It is recommended that you have a guest user account with operator privileges to log in to iDRAC in case auto discovery fails.

  3. Enable the auto discovery feature in managed device’s iDRAC settings. For more information, see iDRAC documentation.
  4. In managed device's, iDRAC Settings, provide OMIMSSC Appliance IP in provision server IP, and then restart the server.
