Lifecycle Controller User's Guide

Platform restore

The following features are available to maintain a server:

• Import Server License—Allows you to import an iDRAC license from a network share or a USB drive. Use this feature to import an iDRAC license from the Lifecycle Controller GUI. The scenarios in which you may want to import a license are when you set up a new server shipped from the factory, while upgrading an Express license to an Enterprise license, and so on. You can import the license that is stored on a USB drive or on the network share such as CIFS or NFS.
• Part Replacement Configuration—Use this feature to automatically update a new part to the firmware version or the configuration of the replaced part, or both. The update occurs automatically when you reboot your system after replacing the part. It is activated through a license, and can be disabled remotely using Lifecycle Controller-Remote Services, or through the Lifecycle Controller.
  NOTE:Part replacement does not support RAID operations such as resetting configuration, recreating VDs, setting controller key, or changing controller mode.
